Also, attaching clear acetate to a piece of curved stainless steel/brass is a nightmare and never looks right. Fernando, who did masters for these models for years should know better.

You are intitled to your opinions but I don't agree with you at all. Window frames may not be 100% correct but everybody who makes high end models does it this way for a reason. It looks much better when completed. Much better than bare metal foil. You could fabricate metal frames to make them 3 dimensional but putting foil on them looks terrible. Even my Russian high end model builder friends don't agree with you and I know a few who do it for a living.
