Really nice job. I like it.
As far as getting it to look protypical, modelers have been dealing with Athearns "close enough" models for years. Its only recently that Athearn has been getting thier shells more protypical with correct width, grills in the right places and correct amount of engine room doors. The re-tooling of their GP-35 and finally actually modelling a GP-9 insted of the GP-7 and calling it a -9 are two examples.
