Hi I'm currently at work so I can't check this theory. But it looks as though you are not setting the view position up, which means you will be viewing from 0,0,0. If the model is centred at 0,0,0 this means you will be looking out from inside the model. It could be that the front clip distance is beyond the outside edge of the model, or that the model is single sided, either way you won't see anything. Try moving the view to say 0,0,-20. You'll also need to set you back clip distance as the default is 10 (iirc), set it to say 300, that should be more than enough for testing.
