Re: HST Virgin Trains Reskin
Oh, another suggestion if you don't mind, the yellow stripes appear to be orange, would you mind making them yellow as shown here:

It is a fantastic reskin... but perhaps it's creating further in-game advertising

Re: HST Virgin Trains Reskin
Yes I will make the stripes yellow - it looks so much lighter in photoshop. Plus I am red green colourblind - yes no joke so I think i've done well to get this far with it
Looking good in the night shots and all the doors open - that was so far untested
thankyou for the picture posts!

Re: HST Virgin Trains Reskin
I'm also noticing the lifting pegs are yellow in the photograph you linked me to but in others they are white. Which should I go with>?
Yuno the things that stick out at either end on the side at the bottom for crane hooks to lift the carriages from.

Agreed. My memory of them is with yellow lifting pegs.

Re: HST Virgin Trains Reskin
News Update:
After a frustrating session I figured out what was making the power unit roof go all shiny and grey and fixed it so its back to matt like the MK3's it hauls.
I'm still working on the TGS and restaurant - they are done but there are small detail problems with both
hopefully I can sort them or it might be a case of putting up with the few errors until I get my hands on the texture mapping diagrams.

Re: HST Virgin Trains Reskin
Lovely reskin! Always was one of my favourite liveries - had a more 'rural' look to it for some reason
or maybe that was just the dirt
Keep up the great work! Kind regards
