Gang,
That Brasil Starships is a nice site, and I do not know who did that build up but it is a nice one. The only REAL SS photo on that site is the side view with the text "real model". The rest look pretty accurate, but no guarentees. Your mileage may vary blah blah blah.
Try THIS site for some Studio scale goodness. And don't bother trying to contact Mr Larson, been there done that, whats on the site is what he's got. Not very good pics, but they help more than you think since they are the real deal, which is uber tough to find.

Steve has converted my initial instructions to PDF, and should be posting them soon. Note that this is the Beta version, not finalized yet, and is only concerned with physical assembly. The paint guide and decal guide are still being worked on. I'm trying to finalize the assembly guide with some new pics and get the paint guide finished along with color reccomendations, but it takes time. In the meantime, let me suggest an overall *light* primer guide coat, and clean up any issues you may have.
Brian,
Drop Steve (swpropmaker) or George (saintg) a line. I think we still have one ready to ship, so turn around would be minimal. If not, I'm casting this weekend so think 1-2 weeks?
