Hi Barry,

Well the textures look like they have changed ,

Going by the pictures posted by Fergus she looks in a right old sorry state lets hope its only superficial,

Getting back to your model, will it be made to X2 scale so it can run on the Ffestiniog Route in the sim and being cheeky is it possible to add a driver to it? [Blimey they don't want much, lol,]

Coming along a treat,

Cheers,

Roger.

The loco was driven in China last year (I think) so it's not as bad as it looks, and the motion works, I had a go on the reverser!

I'm still experimenting with the 'look', but I don't intend producing a 'pretty' version - too boring. The cab will be 'enclosed' - my usual practice when making a hi-detail, hi-poly external model, because you can't have a lot of cab detail, but it's not carved in stone...yet.....(if you want ((BazzaMotion))). A driver and copilot could be added, by not by me, as I'm sure there are addons - not sure how it will work with the aforementioned ((BM)).

Cheers Bazza

PS, the physics for the ENG are being worked on, but haven't been tested by me......regarding scale I don't have a 2ft 6in gauge route, but that's no drawback.

3ft trck is used to represent 2ft 6in, sutch as the Welshpool!

C2 updated 'careworn' textures.

One last pic this evening.

I was dissatified with the cab textures in the previous post's pic, so I had a further play with them and this is the result - just what I want, so now I can move on to adding more detail and textures.

Hmmm, obviously well weathered textures aren't the norm for you lot? Heh, heh, heh.

PS If you try and reskin you'll get some bazza results.

Weathered... but not scrapyard!

Either, either.

Still fiddling....

Cheers Bazza
