I was hoping Justin would let me release to you guys.

and about those box cars I skinned

The boxcar is not from JR and it will be released soon and the A&SE does not have gevos, the skin needs a ton of work before you would ask for permission.

But I do agree, you guys need some wide cabs...

The A&SE will be getting some SD70aces. They prefer EMD locos to GE because they are more reliable and last longer.

One day... The A&SE has purchased 20 SD70ACe's from EMD in mid July this year awaiting delivery (in other words, we need someone to skin the sporbust SD70ACe. It's over my head).

In the mean time, some more standard cabs. I skinned up all 5 of the A&SE's GP29-3 rebuilds (2600-2604) today. Here they are posing outside the shops:

I wasn't suggesting a GEVO, I prefer EMD too...

Well, according to the EULA's for SP_OR_BUST models says "This is a non-reskinnable locomotive..." The only way to contact is frmccall@comcast.net if he still uses it...

Without permission... They all say that, but there are lots of skins of them out there from people who have gotten permission.

 

[bentrain14]

tHEN SOMEONE GET ME permission.

 

[Southern1581]

First off, easy on the all caps, second, I don't need permission for a skin I'm not making. That's your job.

 

[conrailfan1999]

Well So far I am about done with 8 miles of textures and everything else but trees.

 

[Southern1581]

[AMTRAKwannabe]

That baseboard will end up getting deleted. I was supposed to put in a tree pallet for CRfan to use on it but I ran outta time trying to finish V3 before my vacation.

 

[Southern1581]

Well guys, I'm busy trying to finish up a skin of JR's RBMN SD50 in A&SE colors, and once I'm done with it I think I'll be happy never to see another JR unit again. This is taking FOREVER to finish between cleaning up the maps and it being a pretty difficult skin. In the mean time, early morning trains are passing through Autumnville. I caught ballast train B375 passing mixed freight F547 not too long ago, featuring the new ballast hoppers I skinned yesterday (I needed a break from that dang SD50).

That means that Sean is going to the trees! Yay for less work for me!:hehe:

 

[Southern1581]

That wasn't what I was thinking...

 

[Bluewater]

JR Units are hard to skin. Not sure how people do it...

 

[Southern1581]

We work from the bump maps. Unfortunately it looks like Justin spilled oil all over the dang RBMN SD50 bump map. That was a pain in the you-know-what to clean up! Well, the SD50's done, pix in a sec.
