Well I don't know how many were finished and not released....but I know quite a few that got scuttled (or were almost scuttled) due to the whole "ohnoz! copyrights!1!11" thing. Off the top of my head I can think of Bill and Ben, Henry (w/ TV tender), and Gordon (w/ TV tender). I was also in the process of making Harold...but that wasn't a loco :roll:

Good to see you again Daz :) Didn't think you had any interest in the route after a few years ago :drinking: Ah well, great to see you back in action (even if it is behind the scenes :P ) heheh


Cheers! 8)

In fact so did i make Donald and Douglas, completely new models built from scratch ( even ask Matt Carey, i sent him a copy as there were a few teething problems neeeding sorted ), and i also sent David Martin a screenshot of them.

They were quite nice aswell, and very accurate, still needs some animation problems sorted, but i may actually release them:D

Somebody, is there an ace file decompresser that I could use that is not used in DOS mode? I think thats why some people tend to reskin things that don't come with an original bitmap or targa image. Just send it to me please!!!!!! :lol:

There are probably reasons why they haven't been released yet. Either they might need fine tuning or something else. Quality over quantity I say. :)

Exactly the reason evan has pointed out there. My Rusty was the foprst ever thing i built with tsm, and so it was quite basic. Donald and Douglas were a lot better in qaulity, but still need some tweaks, but with all this time working on more important stuff for msts, i don't really have the time to work on Thomas works

If the breakvan's a reskin, just make sure you ask permission first :) (Sorry if you've already been told that >.>;; )

Will this be another reskin or are you building him from scratch?

and as Evan stated have you sought permission to reskin and release from the authors model?
