This frigate came from quiet old comic series called "Funky Koval" which was originally published in 1983 and because of its many references and hidden in SciFi reality, criticism of communistic government (who was still reigned in Poland back then) it gained a cult status.
But coming back to the core of this topic, here are some reference images:

And here you can see scratch build model which still is "in progress" but in my opinion even at this point it looks astounding:

If the background of the pics was a workshop rather than a lounge, you could believe that was a Hollywood filming model coming together.
