Flippin 'eck! I hadn't though of it like that :crazyeyes: . Your a sick man. I shan't be able to think of these locos in the same way again.

I'm off now to dab the back of me neck with cold water.

I've got the bulldog built and skinned. I just need to add the alpha channel and repaint it into a darker GWR green.

If you want, email me at magicklocoworks@yahoo.com and I can send you the current alpha version. That way you'll have something. :P

Dukedog

Yeah, I have that diagram too.

one thing you have to remember. I'm a Yank. Never set foot outside of the country, much less the southern US :) so I'm trying to learn the complicated class system of the small loc's y'all have.

(not to be mean, but your loading gauge is a bit...well, small :) )

Dukedog and Bulldog

Post by starlighter »

ok. I accidentally corrupted the bulldog.s file. I still have the alpha version, and I'll be using that as a guild during a rebuild over the next two days.

One thing I'll do different, is actually spoke the wheels, versus using a .ace file to do it :) Outside that, I won't change a thing.


The Dukedog shouldn't be hard to make, looking at the thing, I'll start on it later today after I tweak the .eng file for the bulldog. All I have to do now is mess with the headout, fix the cabview (there's a window I don't need) and the length. I've been guessing so far, but I can tell that it's a little better than 9 meters in length. (to account for the gap between the tender and engine.)
