Exactly, you can always compare! I think so too, cream coloured curtains in first class or something maybe? :wink:

Im not sure about cream curtains, as they would show dirt, and plus the idea of the curtains is to block sunlight and with cream there is the risk of sunlight! I have seen the curtains in Railworks and there more a grey/gun black than a pitch black colour! The wall backing was originally a green and so was the walls around the seats, but I have now changed it! (mainly because it looked like a gremlins guts everywhere) lol. I don't want to have too much colours interior wise, but if I have it all white, then I might as well show an XC logo inside! I tell you what I might do, as the computer I use to export and Play Railworks, is currently out of order, but if I can get it working then I will upload pictures of what the interior looks like! But at least it looks better than the standard FGW one!

Quite true, I didn't think that through... :-? OK, fine by me :D If you could, make different versions so I (along with others) can compare :)

Hi again all, Well this what interior will look like when it is exported into Railworks (please excuse the really low quality of this pictures as its only been edited in paint) the real model will be much more high quality! I actually quite like it what do people think?

Book's good! Keep up the good work!

P.S. I think it would be more appropriate now if this topic was in the TS2014 forums, I'd ask a mod to move this topic however, it's your choice at the end of the day

As a purveyor of fictional livery's myself I think what you are doing is excellent. The livery looks good and presents a sleek image, in short I am quite digging your livery, wouldn't mind lending a hand with the "fleet" of greater western too :wink:
Am now known as Zm-Yeti/Yetiworks. more to match other online accounts.

Hi, love the website! I have a suggestion for the curtains - Silky, thick, dark chocolate brown.
The doors are red, the thick stripe is blue, the body is white, this is LU!

So here is the suggested chocolate curtains, and also the idea of mine for lime green curtains!

I also am thinking about naming an extra service between Paddington and North Wales. So if you can think of a catchy name then you may get your name chosen! :D
