Fantastic Michael! I was hoping you would tackle some of the smaller locos. Did you also do the skins on those passenger cars? I like the look of those (even if they are CP!).
Once again, looking at your screenshots has been like taking some kind of happy pill for me! No, I'm not just kissing your butt! I really like the "feel" of the areas you have modeled.
I have some questions I hope you can answer. How do you decide which way to tilt the red and gold CNR herald (finally figured out how to spell "herald", I'm an idiot a lot of the time) or logo on the tenders? On one side, the letters tilt up and on the other, down. (Know what I mean?). I'm just curious. Was there some type of "rule" they followed? Also, I've seen the odd "level" herald, for some reason (space?). Looking at real life models sometimes makes me think the heralds might have been different sizes?
Great work again, Michael! Thanks for all the work and time that you put in! SOME gimme pig was wondering if that 2-6-0 will come in CNR colours.
Man, I've really come to a dead stop on my route. I've been up since about 4 and have not and most likely will not even flash up my Trainz computer. I was tired of doing just about everything, decided to start lowering the land on some lakes, rivers, ocean. I just couldn't get into it. I may take a break for the summer or get some work done when it's not so nice outdoors.
Cheers.....(oh, all right, the gimme pig is me, don't tell anybody!)....Rick
Whether I can re-skin depends on how you textured the mesh. I suggest you edit (in CM) one of my steam engine uploads and see where I changed names, numbers etc. The VIA RDC is an example of the other form of texturing, where I can only change the stripe with the railroad name and both ends. I cannot change the colour of the doors, sides or windows because they are textured from within the mesh itself, I think.The CN & CP are grate saves me alot of time thats now spent on my Canada map making it Michael good work. Can I make a request would you be willing to skin my RS23 into WHRC for me There Ex CP I better skin the whats on them please? The RS23 can't be released yet I'm not done with the model.

I am not going to become a 3D modeler.
If you want to discuss further, PM me your email and we can go from there. I should warn you, that doing requests feels like a job and I am RETIRED.
cheers,
