Default Nike Apache Photos

Anyone have any good photos of a real Nike Apache?
I'm currently building a Madcow 4" fiberglass Nike Apache, and being rather anal about scale details, I'd like a good photo or two (preferably color) to use as a guideline for finishing.

So far the best I've been able to find is a photo on the Stickershock website - and it's not all that good and appears to have some photoshop details added...

Thanks, Chris. Great data. I have a Comosdrome N-A kit that I keep wanting to "get around to", so I was pleased that tdracer started this thread.

I have 200+ more hi-rez scans of Nike-Apache photos.
Also a bunch more Nike-Cajun photo scans.

Find a payload you like and I can see what I have to contribute to the cause.
