Progress Report - A bit of progress on the Dundee but very little - have looked at the width plan and am currently 'stretching it out' at the moment!!

Yes, the proportions do seem better now. Add some more detail and update the textures and you'll have a winner on your hands

A bit of a detail update on Bonnie's running plate - I know it is not perfect but IMHO it is better.

Now got two problems to solve - Poly Limit and an odd problem I have never expereinced before.

William - will send it to you when it is finished!!

Nice detail Ben-it's toches like that that push a model from "good" to "great"

Count me in for testing please

Have you tired poly smoothing on those pistons?

How have you made the boiler, it may be possible to cut down on polys there.

I can see a imporvemnet there compared to your RHDR locos!

I have not looked into altering the pistons yet.

Hopfully tommorrow...

I think that I might be able to delete some polys on the additional detail e.g. the pipes!!

Improvement to Bonnie Dundee - Including a start on a new livery - some of the lining is done. The 'detail' is now textured and I have also improved the texture on the boiler and boiler cover.

A close up of the detail showing the new livery and a new texture behind it on the boiler (Not complete!!!

)

A shot of the front of the loco showing the new texturing.

I hope you like it
