Hey all,

Several days ago someone asked about a NW5, it's not exactly 100% accurate or DLS ready but was the best I could do, although I did say last year I'll have it released by Christmas, but that was a fail, I've only sent it to a few people though, I did ask Timothetoolman earlier this year if he'll like to have it on the Trainz Forge site so everyone can have it as-is, he never got back to me on that.

Here's how it looks......

Cheers.

That's pretty good. What are the inaccuracies? I am not an expert about NW5's.

 

[Azervich]

That's pretty good. What are the inaccuracies?.

Chamfer on the body corners seem too shallow, front grill mesh seems a bit too tall (noticed it when I painted it in BN, the black didn't align to the sides), handrails may not be fat enough, end pilots don't look quite right to photos, other than that, I'm happy how it's turned out so far.

Cheers.

 

[MeowRailroad]

Yeah, I see what you mean about the corners.
Anyways,

Cabbages!

Cabbage stacks! I remember those from SW1500 (I think it was) #135 working the siding at Minot exactly a year after it was announced they'd all been repainted (it was still Pullman-and-orange, thank you very much).

Also the brownish green is not prototypical. It's more of a deep army green.

 

[trainboi1]

Eh, it looks pretty brownish to me.

I'm no expert but I wouldn't call that Army Green.

For those discussing the color scheme of Great Northern, the colors are Omaha Orange/Pullman Green.

I see an army green deepened for a nice olive in the sunlight.

I also have Enviro, Specular and Normal maps applied so the colour changes with the sky used in the session, my screenshots is under the Victrainz Sky, not sure if it's number 1 or number 2.

[john2002]

can we get back ontopic please?

 

[oknotsen]

Maybe you guys can give each other a link to the source of your colour information so to settle it once and for all (or take it out of the screenshot thread)?

Whatever the colour is, I like the way the engine looks .

This is what I'm talking about.

Oops! A little to big.

Oops! A little to big.

Maybe you should resize it then...
