Unless you're like me, and highly concerned with appearances. Like the model though. 
What I meant is that during standard gameplay you won't get that close that you would notice (same in STL you won't see that some ships only have 512 textures, unless you use the free cam and get closer to the model).
Also that's something I never liked about BC, the camera angles, they only confuse me. (Or I've always been to stupid to find the correct settings)
