Need Kearsarge Photo Help
Posted by RacerToo on Thursday, February 8, 2018 7:02 PM

 Need to get a clearer copy of the Kearsarge in drydock for my 1/96 project. Trying to see the details of the huts. Thanks.

 My focus is on the shape of the center hut. It appears the the rear of the hut isn't flat, more arched or circular. What I'm seeing is five panels. I wish Tilley was here to help.

The first ones in drydock are unusual. I'd really like to find them.

The photo of the two gents on the gun is a decent image on Navsource.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Yes, I'd like to see a clearer image myself. What I like in the second image I posted, the detail of the hut is quite apparent. Much better than the Navsource photo. The hut isn't just a cube. 

  In this detail shot if you look closely at the roofline you can see more evidence of the curvature to the rear. And maybe a door on the side. it would appear to be cracked or ajar.

   Hopefully we can find others interested in this subject, and they can show us other photos that have more clarity.
