Show off your reskins!

Here's my most recent reskin. I was trying to get close to the switchstands found at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum and the closest switchstand is sarail's 'SAR - Red&Green SwitchStand', <kuid2:121716:8736:1>. I changed the color of the stand, targets, and support ties. I also made a second one by flipping the meshes around in the config file.
Here's the picture:

From right to left: sarail's switchstand, my '412 TVRM Switchstand', then my '412 TVRM Switchstand 2'.

To see the prototype, click on the link and wait for the picture that says 'Rolling Time Machine' and look to the left of the diesel and you'll see the switchstand.

Well, I am making good progress on my own version of Caltrain F40PH unit 900 San Francisco. Still need to figure out the top of roof, the fans are not changing color.

 
The thing that I've learned about Brunswick Green (DGLE if you want to go with the Pennsy's name), is that it can range from being a noticeable shade of green, like my skins, to almost black, like on the PRR's second generation diesels. Factor in weathering and fading, and just about every locomotive will have a different shade.:hehe: The PRR also had multiple shades of Tuscan that they used for their locomotives: One is more brownish, and one is more reddish. For the "Standard Railroad of the World," their paint sure wasn't standard.
NICE skin on that boxcar! I always love more Granger Road stuff!
 
Price and manufacturer had their place to play with their paint color. Pennsey liked to mix old to new which played heck with the consistencies of color. They were not the only one to have this issue.:hehe:
 
Also note, still need to do textures.
Edit: hey guys release is looking pretty good. Talked to Buzz about it already.
