1/400 Academy Titanic build

Hi
I registered here a while back but haven't posted anything.
Here's a few pictures of the build so far.
I have been back to the hobby for a few months and have started a 1/400 Academy Titanic which I have been chronicalling on YouTube (link to latest video of the desk build - )
Since that video I have got the three decks together along with the superstructure sides but I have run into an issue.
Now the three decks are together and the superstructure sides are in place the entire assembly has a bend in it. Now normally I can get around this but as it's fully assembled and painted I have backed myself into a corner. When I put the assembly onto the hull the two ends meet but the center part stands a good 1cm clear. Its so solid that it requires a LOT of pressure to correct which I just can't see glue and clamping solving. Any ideas are very much appreciated!
Thanks and I'll update this post soon with my progress.
