Hello all, First post in the SS forum. Yes, I searched for a parts map but no luck. I have acquired a Studio Scale Klingon Bird of Prey that is missing some pieces and need help identifying them. It is a Steve Neisen kit and I believe its the same one pictured on his site. It’d be great to just ask him for some new greeblies but I’ve had no luck raising him through Facebook. Plus Salzo may have molded and poured parts for it and he’s now retired so here we are. I am the 4th owner of this model and would like to make it complete again.

So the first 2 items I need are on the back flanking the main engine. I have noted the parts in green using the original miniature displayed at the Smithsonian.
They seem to be duplicates, looks like a motorcycle part but what do I know. Probably a tank part like everything else…

Better angle:

The second piece may be scratch built but again, who knows.

Thanks for looking - I’d really appreciate and assistance here.
 
The second one is two parts, the bottom, bigger part is a German Sd.Kfz 222. Probably Tamiya 1/35 but I don't know how big the Bird of Prey is.

That triangular piece is about an inch long. Thank you so much. The body is 40n inches from back to tip of nose.
 
The parts on either side of the engine look to be from the 88 mm flak, I havent looked yet. just the first thing I thought of.
 
Thank you - those side details by the engine are a problem. They may be Flak parts with the barrels sheered off but don’t know.

Do you have any clearer, bigger pictures of them?

Let me rephrase that, since if you had them you'd have posted them.
For one, I can't make them out clearly enough from those pictures to speculate on what they might be. Many times it happens that the one thing standing in the way is just a better reference shot. If someone had or could get better shots then that would be a big help.
 
I feel you and appreciate everything done so far. I can zoom in. Just wanted the pieces in context in case someone knew exactly what pieces were used there.
