Question Petal nose- try 1

Since the nose of the aircraft is rounded all around, the designer chose a petal design for the nose.

Since I am not a fan of this method, I decided to make a test copy and build it to see how it looks before I sacrifice the kit parts.

Here is a picture ( on the left ) of the actual nose and the kit parts ( on the right )

For the paper purist, this is the final product. As for me, this will not do!
