View from the porthole of an LC-130 at 60 degrees south, heading to Mcmurdo.

Not sure if I like it yet. What do you think?

Not bad and good idea but the window is too blocky ...not your fault though

5 stars from me for effort......did that same trip twice(real life) back in my youth....bloody long trip in a Herc, always seemed faster coming home for some reason, maybe the wind.

Yeah...never be shy of improving on a model's little inadequacies:

I heard round windows makes the plane stronger .. Don,t ask me where i heard that from

Yes! The same good idea!
But the window.....

Bug.

Good work on trying something different! You can find all sorts of things when you start shifting the viewpoint around in a model...

Ian, yes round windows are a must... Squares or points in the frame focus stress and things go downhill from there - just ask de Havilland about their Comet

That'll be from the Comet inquires and those top side windows me thinks
