Help Wanted: MR Falcon owners

Thought I'd give this a try, but is there a kindly MR Falcon owner out there who'd be willing to take a few photos of their bird for me??? Believe it or not, after 5 or so years of research, I'm STILL determined to build this sucker from scratch... I've scoured the 'net for any MR photos to fill in my reference of the actual studio model, but I'm missing shots of a few areas. Now, I realize the MR is heavy side, so my needs are simple:

• The 4 mandible access pits on the bottom

• The 2 hull access pits on the bottom next to the landing gear boxes

• That area of greebly on the bottom of the left mandible where it meets the hull (non cockpit side)

I really just want to see what's in there and hopefully I.D. as many of the kit parts as possible. As we all know, this area of the ILM model while on display has been tough (if not impossible) to photograph.

Many, many appreciative thanks in advance. And if bribes are in order, I'm always willing. ;)

How far have you gotten?
Just curious.
 
Almost finished working out the bugs of my cardboard mockup. Every time I think I'm close to nailing the right measurements, something knocks it a little off proportion (being too much of a perfectionist). Hoping to go to plastic soon. I think I've got somewhere around 85% - 90% of the kit parts identified (at least in the areas I have reference).
