Learning to scratch build model windows can expand possibilities for a model builder or hobbyist. You're no longer limited by what's available off the shelf.
Scratch building windows is really not that difficult. Here's a basic technique for double-hung window construction. Build a few and you can get pretty efficient at it.
Of course this basic technique can be expanded and added to. You could add more prototypical details like a sloped sill and additional trim and stops. Or even use those stops to make windows openable if you like.
