Re: Work in progress
Am I right in guessing that this a class 40?

Re: Work in progress
It's looking great Tim, but there is one glaring problem with the bogies, and its an important feature to my eyes. The unpowered axle has inside bearings. The ends of the axle simply protrude through large cutouts in the bogie frames, and can clearly be seen rotating when the loco moves:

Hope you will be able to put this right without too much effort,
Ian

Ian,
Already did, just have not changed the Bogies over yet. Thanks for pointing it out though.

Re: Work in progress
Ok done a bit of work tonight, just got to finish Blending in the textures, I have now added the pre shaded bogies with the correct axle protrusion as pointed out by Ian, also I fixed the Glaring error of a radiator grille being at the wrong end of the Loco, and added the speedo cable to the new bogie.
Hopefully I can get this one done and released before you all run off and play with Rail Sim! the other idea being when tools are available this model will go into KRS after some extra detail additions

Re: Work in progress
Richard, when l can find a spare moment and the enthusiasm ( bit jaded with train sim per se right now ) l will tend to the Warship, l have Tims textures and ammended the maping to line it all up and look dandy, just needs some 3D cabs and textures to complete really, nothing too tedious, just bit of an effort right now
