I could weld them, but since you are totally reworking them, maybe it is easier for you to create a new porthole model from scratch, that you can duplicate n times. Only the porthole "glass". I have already fixed the "frames"
I think that can be done, but you should make each porthole bigger than its frame. The portion sticking out from the frame could be made transparent or it coul be painted black in the day texture, whereas the night texture would look similar to the last picture you have attached  |
