I would do the same thing with the engines to aid in the proper fit

Thanks Clint, yes, was the correct decision!

So starboard nacelle is pretty much ready..

Fit is now good, had to fill some gaps with thin styrene stripes + some streched sprue. I am pretty ok with this result.

Amazing service, agree to Tom (Blacksheep), excellent customer service!
And I did not need to pay anything, even if I broke it (and honestly wrote it to Revell)

Thank you Revell Germany, you made my day! :-)

She is looking very good and what a nice surprise from RoG!

Great job on the nacelle, Kari!

Thank you everyone for your positive reactions!

Did also something Stuart (aka Portman) likes to do, in other words some modelling during the lunch break..
As I decided to fix the port side nacelle, that did not really have the best of the best fit..

First had to put a piece of sprue inside, widening up the upper part slightly, perhaps 0,75 mm.

Image

There was some tiny gap that I fixed with stretched sprue.. But oh man did it take time before I succeeded to stretch the perfect piece. The gap was not even big, wider in one end and thinner in the other end. So same had to be applied to the stretched sprue to fit perfectly in the gap.

Image

I found this method quite good, leaving the entire piece of sprue at it is, and then only pushing the stretched in the gap and then adding the thin liquid cement (this time Mr Cement S). Before I have always tried to more or a less cut the right length.

Now it need to stay still, one hour went in a fraction of a second!

Long time ago we have seen Silvio aka BsYamato here, so I will also end my post as Bruce also did:

At the next!
