You might say it's...

Drawing by Alexander E. Karnes, all credit goes to him but I just couldn't resist given the epic.

I will eventually get rivots on the tender texture.

Nice job on the locomotive engine & tender, but I believe the font on the cab should be Arial & the gold numbers Railroad Roman

Anyone have an idea as to what type of bogey the water car uses? To me it looks like a barber type.

NO!

Arial is not Helvetica and it is not used here.

Those are just standard solid bearing freight trucks.

Sorry, but I thought it just looks close to the one the real Frisco 1522.

Oh god Im so confused now So do I stay with the Engravers MT Bold Extender or use the Railroad Roman?

@simulatortrain, thanks for letting me know about the bogeys.

 

[simulatortrain]

Use whichever one looks closer.

Railroad Roman like on this picture:

Okay. Then I'm good with fonts.

 

[trainman7616]

Got the water tender complete. All decimate modifiers are added.

Talking about decimating, whats your overall face count?

Awesome! Now, could you change the font on the dome & the herald to Railroad Roman, please? Also, could you remove the lower stripes on the domes?

The other fonts are as they should be. And what do you mean by removing the lower stripes of the domes? I looked at photos of Frisco herself as I textured her. You can always reskin certain textures. Others you cant.

Overall face count is: 115,400
Overall Tris count is: 158,252

Each individual model will have a LoD mesh. So no worries.

As seen in this picture, it shows you that the stripes on the domes are above the number: 1522, it was hard trying to find a good photo showing you what I mean.

not trying to be picky, but that cabside font doesn't look right. and the letters are too close together.
