Next item: Are you going to go chrome (Centurion) or gold (Command Centurion) with your plate? Chrome would match up with the insignia you were making, that Centurion was not a Command Centurion (Gold).
Colored Cylon (gold, bronze) didn't show up till well into the series. Adding a color was an after thought on how to give the guys some ranking when they discarded the insignia on the armor.

Yep. True dat. And they only did Chrome and Gold... they only produced two toys (Chrome and Gold) - if they had a Bronze they would have had a toy - to sell more toys. Bronze is only a production issue/prop mess up/time taking its toll.

So, what color Skullbeast? CYLON MINDS WANT TO KNOW :)

Thanks folks, chrome for my first! And I'll gold plate my second.
CK in the ballpark of 35 bucks. I got started in sculpting the base plate for the necktie. Check out the new vid up top

Not sure the size of your feet, nor if you want vintage boots, but these are dead on except the sole.
