Builders Model of HIJMS Kongo !

Hi Guys (and girls);

I have a very bold question ! There are some beautiful Builders models in the Dock Museum in Barrow-in-Furness.
My question is, I am extremely interested in the Builders model of the Japanese battleship KONGO, and would like to have some Hi-Res pictures of the model. I am planning to build a scale 1:200 model of KONGO in this configuration. Taking pictures would be difficult because of the glass case around the ship, but there are ways to get around this, for instance taking pictures with the help of a circular polarisation filter or if not using a filter taking pictures at a angle to the glass, so that you have as less as reflection as possible, in this way using a flash is also possible. I would like to take the pictures myself, but for some reason it is impossible for me to do !! :(
Hope some of you are able to go to the museum and take some pictures for me ! Or maybe you have been there already and took pictures of HIJMS KONGO.

Regards

John Dohmen.
