Cylon Tanker Part Maps

Has anyone made a casting of the nose for the tanker? It's the main piece that's been holding me back on starting mine.

Me too. Jaws had a master he was going to cast but nothing happened. And there was a kit out of Germany a couple years ago. But, like a lot of us probably, I don't need a kit. Just need the head and acrylic structural parts for the body. Seems like a good time for someone to take a new whack at it.
 
If I can ever finish one, I'll be happy to cast it. But don't wait on me, I'm so sloooooooow, ; )

This is as far I've got with the virtual nose so far, : (

Yeah I’ve contacted the German guy and asked but he wanted to only sell the whole kit.
 
I have the head and other parts I did a long time ago.
If there is enough interest I can 3d or cast up some parts.

Here are a couple more kits that don't seem to have been mentioned on the list (as far as I can see).
Revell 1/32 F-4E Phantom II for the bomb halves under the head, and Nichimo 1/35 Jagdpanzer IV/70 "Long" for the Schurzen plate underneath the 25 PDR gun shield (in green).

Another missing part from the model as it is today comes from the Tamiya 1/35 Sdkfz222 or 223.
It's only seen in one brief shot as far as I know (see screen grab). It would have been glued onto the 88mm Flak fenders which got broken off, and the shaft section is all that remains on the miniature now, as seen on Jim Small's photo.

Thanks man ! I have both of those kits, so that's good, lol. I need to put a kit list at the start of the thread. I'll add these.
