My plans are to make twelve diferent liveries:

Union Pacific
Southern Pacific
Rio Grande (I love this one)
Burlington Northern
Cotton Belt
SOO
Santa Fe (Blue/Yellow Printstripe)
Santa Fe (Bluebonnet)
Conrail
B & O
CSX
Chessie System

Each liverie with small changes in the 3d mesh, like lights, number positions, roof fans, etc.
I believe this one will be my best model ever.

Well...I think the 3d mesh for the exterior is done. Now I need to work a lot in the textures and cab mesh.

Looks very nice :)

How do you use the assets editor? The panels on the left are empty for me. How can you view assets in it?

Starting to look like I want

WickedMouse: you need to click the preview button in the asset editor with your blueprint open on it.

Looks good, looking at the nose though, it seems to have a harsh angle?
