Especially the plating I was talking about in the other thread. I'm having a hard time figuring out that banding on the nose section. Im talking about that v shaped band that goes across the top and down the sides. Clear pictures of this model will help me on that, and many other places. Many areas are very dark in the original model pics. I wish somebody would sneak into Gary's house and take a gazillion pictures of the Galactica and the DraconiaAnybody got a black ninja outfit. I'll do it after I find out if he has a dog or a gun , LOL. Just kidding Gary, if you read this. My ninja days are long past. Glad to see these models end up in good hands. I'm speaking of the custom replicas now. I remember when this model was being built, I snagged some pictures from the website back then, if I remember right they weren't very big. Oh well, maybe now well see some bigger ones

As far as I am aware those strips are just styrene, Joe.
That build that CR did is a very nice build but there were still a lot of unknowns they had to fill in with things. There's been much progress with nutting more of the puzzle pieces out over the time which is some of what will make Jase's offering that little bit better again to what had previously been offered.
I'm still one that believes ya really should be looking at the original for how things should be rather than anyones replica but that is just me. No matter how close anyone has got things ya just can't go past the old girl herself.
