| Nacelle construction is also altered from the kit plan, At the top are the three die cut pieces provided in the kit for a nacelle, below is the modified structure-the nacelle top has been lengthened and a piece has been added between the top and bottom. This makes for simpler construction and adds more dept to the nacelle to bring it more into scale. As seen in the B-29 picture posted earlier, the actual nacelles have more of an oval cross section than a circle. |
