I may try to contact Billings and see if they would share information as to where they got the information for the hull dimensions and shape.
As always any leads would be appreciated.
"Models by Design" bought the Kingston Mouldings rights to the 36" 1/10 scale fiberglass African Queen. Also Pussers Grille in Indiannapolis MD has the 4 foot model used in the film rapid scenes.. Maybe you can take a lot of photos and with permision take measurements. My page on here has a detailed plan of the dummy boiler with detailed movie stills. I will attempt to build a mockup and have it 3d printed for my Kingston Hull.
