(...) Ik heb een paar toverbal gekocht, en de technicus van ons lab gevraagd er een middendoor te zagen, net zoals hij anders met gesteenten doet om microscopische preparaten te maken. En zie: het is een perfecte weergave van de concentrische opbouw van de aardbol.

model
I would use model here: it is a perfect model of the concentric structure of the earth.
As an alternative: a perfect analogue of the concentric structure of the earth.
Weergave could be translated as reproduction, copy, reflection or display, but I would not literally translate it.

I would prefer the verb. God forbid we always stick to the syntax of the source! "Reflect" perfectly reflects :-) what is meant by 'weergave'
