Thanks Stephen. I followed your advice and asked them. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
BTW, here are a few shots of the model after two days of care. Everything was made out of scrap styrene, wood, paper and aluminium foil. The rear fan grilles are 100% scratchbuilt. I mean I had to engrave the louver blades independantly using a dull Xacto blade, then cleaned the mess with a curved blade to get a smooth and slanted look. I suspect I lost 3% of my sanity on that. This is ludicrous. I feel like a model railroader from the 70s.
