It looks like its flown under a low bridge. Imagine trying to land it on a tricycle under carriage with the cockpit that far back from the nose.

The most ugliest plane was the British Short Singapore Mk1 twin-engined flying boat.

If there's an ugly plane, it's the one on your sig CC. You think the lancaster's nose looks bad have a look at that P.108 that you champion

The P.108 looks great (Although the nose is the worst part...) Still, it fits with the plane more than the nose of the Lancaster, because the whole plane is curvy. On the Lancaster, youve got a curve on an oter wise square plane. The nose of that of a Ju-88 or Do-17Z would suit it more...

The Walrus had character, just look what it's crews called it- the Shagbat. Best biplane amphibian ever IMO

I rather would shag a bat than look at the Walrus to be honest
