Where the stripes normally are, is only the body color of the bird. This gives the distinct appearance of a "V" shape when viewed from behind. It is difficult to find a "clean" opaline. Also, the color of the edges of the shell marking feathers on the wings will be the base color of the bird, and not the head color, which is usually the case. Opaline also changes the barring on the head of the bird, so that instead of showing up in evenly spaced rows as a normal budgie, they come in looking "off center", and not marked as well. Reverse barring is a good term Dingo. The barring is also not as dark as is normal. The best opaline I had was Mystery, she had the cleanest back with almost no barring between her wings at all. this picture is a bit dark, but you can clearly see her back and the "V" shape everyone describes. You can't see as well, but the feathers on her wings are edged in the body color and not yellow, which is her head color. Here is the one from above, it shows the coloring of her wings a little better. Here is a picture of the normal barring on a budgie, compared with the barring on an opaline. I have used Blueberry as an example of an opaline, as the black markings on her wings are of normal intensity, so you can tell how much the opaline gene lightens the barred feathers on the head. You can also see how the barred feathers do not form even lines on the head, like they do in a normally marked bird. Both of these birds have head spots of about the same size. I hope that helps.

This I think is a good example of an opaline. these pics are of my new baby 5 1/2 weeks old my partner reckons she has the best V he has seen in 7 years or more, I don' realy know about that, but I do know it is good and it is going to be a nice size show bird as she is showing good quality now, her over nest mates are 1 light green very nice and 2 other opalines just like this one with perfect V's also but they are a bit smaller because their mother feather plucked them raw for a few days, and I think it might of stunted their grow, but they seem to be catching up.
