You know, I have seen photos of the ship under construction and it does appear to be all acrylic - I guess that never really sunk into my head until now.
Having seen the real thing a couple times at exhibits, and having worked on a SS Galactica for many years I now have much more of an appreciation for the size (and weight) of the miniatures.
Would be amazed that acrylic alone could support all of that structure.
