the b-24 looks great, side windows and all capture the look of the b24 well when looking from side or rear but looking from front the center large window of the front canopy is rectangular the way it is on a.p. loyds incorrect 3 view drawing. the real b-24s center window was square. the small window above it was mostly horizontal with very little of it curved down vertically to meet the large center window.
all B-24s look this way.
granted stretching the center window up and down wont spot on match the real thing since its so low poly but it will capture the look of the real thing. the current ah2 version does not capture the look of the b24 from forward angles because of the canopy inaccuracy of the front window. (the nose should also be horizontal and flat like the fuselage spine behind the nose dome window.)
