On the way to the ice.

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?

[Naki]

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

[Splitpin]

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:

[Ian Warren]

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

[Bugdani]

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

Bug.

[Alfashark]

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
