This is the Galactica with which most of you younger pups are familiar, thanks to the long-running remake series which we old BSG franchise dogs like to call NuBSG or TRS (The Reimagined Series). It's a total revamp of the original Apogee design although the general shape is still the same, reflecting in part the reimagined idea in NuBSG that Galactica is an OLD ship, a veteran of the long Cylon War, and is about to be permanently retired as a museum ship and war memorial at the start of NuBSG when the Cylons turn the tables and wipe out most of the Colonies. Fortunately Galactica survives, thank in part to where she is and the instincts of her captain, Commander Adama (Edward James Olmos in NuBSG), and just like in TOS she becomes the core ship and chief protector of an odd assortment of surviving Colonial military and civilian ships (mostly the latter), known as the Rag-Tag Fleet in both shows, as they set off across the stars in search of the semi-mythical lost thirteenth colony of man (Earth) and hopefully somewhere free from the Cylons.
Galactica is a Jupiter class battlestar per NuBSG/TRS series lore, hence my title line for this entry.
Coxxon made and released two different NuBSG Galactica models of which I am aware. The low poly gaming model is the most common version available and you can still find it in many places and in multiple NuBSG mods for various space-based combat video games. Google's 3D Warehouse has a SketchUp port of it if you can't find it anywhere else, although you'll have to re-port it yourself if you need it in another 3D model format. Coxxon's superior high poly model, which this image shows, is almost impossible to find these days and the only reason I have it is that I downloaded it years ago, back when it was still widely available. Good luck hunting is all I can say there, but if you get fed up looking for it then don't sweat it. There's lots of other mid- to hi-poly NuBSG Galactica models out there that have since been done by others, both retail and fan-made and most of which can be found with a simple Internet search, so maybe one of those will fit your project needs.
May the blessings of the Lords of Kobol go with you.
