I built the plastic version a few years ago and I offer you 2 photos to compare this very beautiful and impressive achievement. Bravo!

Well, my priority was they lined up and looked correct, so i put a load of glue on the nacelle and pylon and held the nacelle in place so it glued in the correct place, but not flush to the pylon (see pic). it means there is a gap but wonky nacelles would have bugged me!! Had the model been plastic I would have put some kind of putty in the gap but don't have a simple "Card" solution to fill gaps
