Looking more like the real one would be the use of 1x2x2 inverted slopes,
so that the top light can stay as it is, but have so a steeper front/back side.
There's only one problem to make it that way : I can't find such 1x2x2
inverted sloped bricks (i think they don't exist!). For the small side
windows can you also use 1x2x2 windows

blue panel.

Anyhow, thanks for the usefull tip. I change it and see how it looks like.

regards
Ludo
