I like original photos taken at the right time, for the best reference.
Not interested in profile artworks.
Too many inaccuracies and contradictions between artworks.
And you can't reference Museum displays, they are often historically inaccurate.
You've hit upon the biggest problem with creating alternate parts for Ken West's model.
The various Tail markings and Nose configurations also relate to many other exterior differences.
Various other markings are different, colours of varied panels, different visible engine components, etc
Too many things to change on the model to make accurate alternate vehicles.
I think the only acceptable thing is creating complete kits of alternate vehicles.
Maybe 66670 at a different time, in a different configuration.
or 66671...
or 66672...
And that might be something that only Ken West can do.
