Calling all Wilmington-class (USS Helena PG-9) gunboat (1897) fans

Combrig is working the model of the USS Helena PG-9 and needs information on it. They already have line drawings, but need the photos of the ship to get the details right. There is a builder's model of it on display in the Washington Navy Yard:

They'd really appreciate it if someone who lives in the area could go there and do detailed photo walkaround of the model (30-40 hi-rez photos of it). In return that are promising to give whoever volunteers to do it a kit of the USS Helena once it comes out.

Thanks a lot,

Vladimir

P.S. I don't check the boards very often so please contact me at my email yak_v(at)hotmail.com if you'd like to do it.
