Here are some photos of my CEV.  I chose to finish it in rather traditional White and Flat Black for the radiators, but added, as is seen in some concepts, an additional radiator panel that extends out from the space craft in lieu of one of the high gain antennas.  Also, since most concepts have the space craft with windows on both sides of the capsule, I added two more represented with silver decal paper.

An easy build, though already out of date, with the apparent decision to go to a 5 meter diameter instead of a 5.5 meter diameter, but still, it will contribute to an evolutionary display of the CEV.
