yes the front is the window that is shaped like an octagon. the back part is not shown yet there are two veiws on this one at least front and the underneath veiw. the front veiw is the blue area on the second pic I posted.
btw I dont really know what the scale of this model is.

current things I am working on in this project.

1. wings and wing mounts.
2. I am going to cut away the main veiw port or cockpit and make a little real by adding some hoses and wires to it.
3. add some uniqe engine design.

Well, based on what you told me I can see the scale now. Taking the shape and size of the window into it. Looking good so far.

I do have some sorta texture design that I would be perfect for it. but its not ready for textures yet. I have many ideas for this this project.

I was thinking on the main capsule that I was going to detach it using the knife and in between the front capsule and main body part. I was going to have some pipes and some wires. so that the front capsule can have free movement.

ooh I have found an ingenious engine design that I am planning on using in this project.

note I did not make this model. but I like the engine concept that the person made and am planning on making something close to that for my S.I.R model.
