I think it will need much more then that but it is a start none the less. Give it dedicated work and you will have a good cabview.

Basically, the orange plastic work around the cab needs to be 'toned' like the real thing. Basically, have all the various surfaces react to the sunight differently if you understand what I mean. What some people have done is simply have a cab photograph (no neccesarily a complete one either, look at the class 55/75 railcar cabs) with no moving controls. That is the simplest way to have a cab. All the controls may not move but they do operate like normal. That would be the way to go in my opinion.

What you could do is use the right hand view window, and use it on the left hand side with some minor work (the left hand side is 2 panel so it can be opened, the right hand side is but the one panel and can't be opened.

Getting much better Squeeky. Like others have said, perhaps a photo of the actual cab and then trying to animate the controls would be better? However, it is starting to look good now.
