Let's hear some more details on the resto weekend. How much work was needed? From the pics it seems like there would be quite a lot to do in terms of styrene panels lifting off, visible cracks etc. C'mon, give us the rundown Richard.
I can't imagine much mo-co filming would be done, but possibly a CGI ship scanned form the original?
Somebody do a BookFace vote for me please!

Mike,
We did a fair share of re-gluing parts as the original glue was 36 years old by this time. Most of what we did was add little parts that were missing, and replace parts that when they were added the last time proved incorrect due to better vintage reference this time. The overall effect was to make her look as much like she just came off the filming stage as possible for her latest round of portfolio shots.

Most of the Galactica Replica builders piss someone off in some online community at some time or other, its just a few that are so good at it that they can piss off everyone at the same time!
