looking good, although i think the ends may need a bit of a clean up, they look pretty dark and dreary compared to the rest of the paintwork which looks ex Worksish, possibly needs to be lighter and more vibrant (or is it just the time in the sim making them look mankyish?)

You could try color matching it with the coaches.

I think the sides look fine colour wise.

are you trying to take the mick?! :roll:

Ive altered the front so it looks more "ex-works" as suggested by hymek. Having a day off today though, will re-number them to the others and upload early next week i'd imagine

Carl, I have to say that its looking a lot better than the originals.

A few points from me;

1) Colour wise i'd say its fine (I'll admit it looks a little dark but i have checked my photos against the texture and its a perfect match near enough so i wouldn't do any alterations to it).

2) The Pink / White lining by the roof could do with being a bit shorter as it ends just after the first grill at each end. It could also do with being a bit thicker (Not much though).

Excellent Carl!

When you first look at the picture, the colours appear not to match, but when you look again, you realise thats because of the gradient on the EH2 coaches (the shine) and that they do really match.

(Thats meant as a compliment, not a criticism)

I like the work you have put into this mate. Carl, could you tell me the correct formation of this train as would like to use it in one of my "up-to-date" 2004-2006 era activities for WCE?
