What engines and rolling stock are people working on at the moment?

You asked .... The odd texture around the cab is caused by POVray rendering the coincident back face as well - I must try and fix this sometime.

Oooh .. lovely! Will you be doing the 0-4-0T version as well?

The 2-2-0 was only ever used by the LSWR (as a passenger loco!) and the WD, so an 0-4-0 version would be useful for SR fans - maybe when I've finished my other 20 projects

here's another at the other end of the spectrum...

Bertha, lovely Bertha. You are a lovely machine, and anyone who works with you will know what I mean.

Ok so that show was about a different bertha but the song could still apply

Gulp!

I suppose that's about as great a contrast as one can get with conventional standard gauge UK locos. I daren't ask what the other 18 projects are! Let's hope to see some of them soon ..

Well, not exactly 'working on' at the moment, but 'work in slow progress':

Well - not to the meticulous standards of the Pros above.

Also having probs with the third tender wheel set, not the first to have this difficulty, I believe!

I've a couple of non-UKFS things on the go, but UKFS work means nobody should get excited about either

GWR 94xx - I've restarted this project, as I'm improving the model.

GWR AA20 TOAD Brake Van

I'm also working on further GWR/BR(W) wagons and coaches.

Tim, you just have to get that 94xx model done, it is so beautiful I can't believe it

About to be released:-

Bulleid 59ft shorties, Bulleid 'Bournemouth' set; LNWR - couple of surprises; BR T9 & 700; LSWR stock

My problem - I'm a great starter of projects.

Decapod - C14 looks terrific.

I note everybody's working towards much greater detail & poly counts - back to the board?

The C14 is approaching 8,600 polys, my last new model (the E2) was over 12,000 - huge numbers for simple tank engines.

Modern graphics cards can handles these, though MSTS may struggle when it gets over 12,000

Just preparing for the new simulators....
