One goes, One Comes (Matchbox Loco Works is up!)

[captainkman]

Hello!

Remember a while ago when I announced that I was going to close Left For Titfield Productions? Well, I have. But don't worry, I have kept all the stuff from it. And I've made some new stuff.

This is because I have started a new website! It is called the Matchbox Locomotive Works. It will eventually be home to my old content, my new content and many tutorials, video or otherwise.

I do have some things up already, and I'll use this thread for added content and updates. I have uploaded:

1. The TV/Movie pack, a bunch of scenery items from various movies and television shows.
2. A hornsound for Mavis, the quarry diesel. Mavis is on the DLS, the hornsound is on the TTTE page.
3. A reskinning tutorial, which shows how to reskin my Matchbox loco, the easiest loco to reskin in the world!

Here's the site link: http://mbxlocoworks.jimdo.com/

I hope you enjoy it! All types of feedback welcome, including questions and criticizm. (Of the constructive type)

Enjoy!

Kieran.

Nice, simple, and well organized. Best of luck on your new venture!*


*...and Perry the Platypus, but he doesn't do much...

Thank you Ed. Those were the main ideas when I decided to make this new site. My old method of text, links and then all the screenshots laid out at the bottom was silly, this method of clicking on the picture to download the item is much better. It's what other sites do too.

If you didn't know, Perry is from a kids cartoon called Phineas and Ferb. Perry is a secret agent whose disguise is a mindless pet. I used to like it many years ago, but I grew out of it, unlike Thomas & Friends, which I am still a fan of. The trainz model is the mindless pet version.

Oh, and to revive (and paraphrase) an old joke: People will look at this thread and think, "Wow, this new site must be good, as Ed has replied to the thread on it!".

I used to watch the show as well, one quality children's program amongst the riff raff! Thank you for Perry though!

Some new items are now on the TTTE page and I've edited the Tutorials section.
