I need some good photos, model pictures, etc of ARA General Belgrano.

I can't find anything other than a few grainy photos of her sinking.

That Spanish modelling forum thread is fantastic, I've never seen such high-res photos of this ship before.

Thanks guys.

Does anyone know when the Sea Cat system was first mounted? I'm planning on drawing the 17 de Octubre and then the Belgrano after that.
