Nose Detail - Complete!

...Well, for the most part. Below is a WIP screenshot of the nose section on the 727-200 with all of it's glorious details. A few things to note here:

1. The cockpit and cabin windows will be colored in appropriately. The flat gray look of the cabin windows is only temporary, Mike ;-) I've drawn in some basic interior details inside the cockpit windows that will hopefully be used as silhouettes for the completed look.

2. As with the cabin windows, the silver frames around the first three windows are only a basic shape that I used for test fitting, though the very first one has a rough highlight to it that I was playing around with.

3. The various tiny antennae along the top and bottom of the forward fuselage have not been finalized. I drew out a few antenna options, but the number and placement of them vary quite a bit from aircraft to aircraft, so the final configuration will be made later on for each individual livery.

I'm still not too sure how I'd like to portray the various panel lines on the finished product, so for now they'll just remain as gray lines. They are just some of the millions of things that I'll be playing with and tweaking as my first profile attempt in Illustrator continues to progress.
