Does anybody might know where I can find some pics of Gemini 5? I’m gonna to build a diorama with the Gemini and the USS Lake Champlain. I know I’m not going to find a Gemini model in the small scale. So I’m gonna have to scratchbuild it. I just would like to find some info over how big, and color, and so on. If anybody could help that would be great.

And post photos of your progress!! This sound awesome 
First I have to firgure out how I’m going to do this. This is still in the very early stages. This is just the planning stage. I’m building this for my father-in-law for Christmas. I know it is going to be alot of work, but that is why I’m starting now. The reason why I want to build this, is because my father-in-law was on the Lake Champlain during the Gemini 5 mission. He was a corpmen so he checked out Gordon Cooper, and Charles Conrad. He has lots of pics with them and everything. It is some of his fondest memories in the Navy. So anyways like I said this is still in the planning stages. So anyways thanks for your help der_jackal
I was just at the Air and Space museum and took a few photos of the 2 capsules on display, I dont recall what mission they flew but they might help.
I will email them to you or post them here if I can find out how.
