D-Whale´s Micro-Mini Contest entry: Khan´s S.S. Botany Bay in 1/1700

Here is my entry
After a conversation with Chris Gutzmer to not beat some rules I enter with it!
It is a combination of two kits!
The first kit is from Ulrich Prahn:

Ulrich Prahn's Star Trek Cardboard Models

Original Scale of this kit was 1/600, but i needed only the nose of the model (the single white part)! it was easier to built than the nose from the 2nd kit!
the kit is reduceed to 35%!

The rest of the model is from the second kit from Robert Merkstallinger (aka "Falwin"):

The Lower Hudson Valley Paper Model E-Gift Shop - Photo Gallery - Science Fiction

the kit was original in scale 1/250 and i reduceed it to 14% of the original size!

After the built I layered also some extra details and then i painted it with a brush to show the highlights!

The question (Chris had also not a real answer) is now: is it a "Mini" or a "Micro" entry? What do you think?

Here are the report pictures
