Few exterior details of the ship are actually classified. During routine "open ship" for civilians of various nationalities, they are allowed to take pictures of anything they want as long as its not from the inside itself.

Do you produce paper-model sets for interested buyers?

Generally, I don't. But, if some publisher is interested in releasing my projects, I design a paper-model on request. I'm freelancer.
