look in the lower right corner of the cab, and you'll find this... it is very readable when placed on the model.

A nice detail touch. I think the date and build number could be edited.

Well I'm still learning but I think it's turning out ok. Some of the black areas need tweaking I guess. I added the builders plate like in the picture... Any thoughts?? Image
