According to AOG, the chunky, brink-like ship that can be seen in
various
scenes from "In the Beginning" is the Olympus Corvette. They have
designed
the miniature for it and I will admit the pic of it looks quite good.
So
in answer to your question, the AOG version of the Olympus and miniature
they designed for it is like the chunky silohette on the AOG control
sheet
and as they get everything O.K.ed by WB that makes it the official one.
And from what I have seen of the AOG designs, I think they are making
best
guesses from what they have seen in the show and the movies. They only
become official once WB have put their stamp of approval on it.
