Nose shape and cabin windows....

Well, may be (and i hope so) I am wrong, but I suppose that the shape of the nose is not really correct!!!
http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1028418/L/ look at this foto for example and many others that that could be found in airliners.net... the other thing that can be seen on this foto is the shape of the last (right) cabin window - it is actually smaller than in visual model of CS 757...
I really like CS 757 visual model, I think that it is the best for the moment, the only think I want is make it ideal... Smiley

It aint the best.....But I think it is because of the lack of seeing of interior window sills and such and the textures on the Metal strips around the windows themselves.....That creat kind of an "Optical Illusion"?
They seem to be pretty close. They got the basic shape right.

that is what i noted: if you see on the plane from one angle the nose is too long, from another angle it is short from the third one it is OK more or less...
So i think if you are trying to compare visual model with foto you should find absolutely the same angle the same position etc....

First of all, on the screenshot above the zoom is way out.

Comparasion of any photo and screenshot proves nothing. I think you are well aware of the camera lens an MSFS general distortion and of course MSFS ZOOM distortion that change any model appearance dramatically.

Ideal model? No problem, does anyone have the 757 engineering drawing with cross sections? If so, please send then we'll re-check our model geometry.
Otherwise, all talks about the model geometry are really about nothing.

And please do not forget, the game modeling is always an ART.
