If you just whitewall the drivers it makes a heck of a difference on the appearance on these locos.

I do like the whitewall, but I would like the driving rods and such to be unpainted, and the smokebox to be a grey color. I'm not sure what the difference is? Unless your talking about the ones in the pictures I posted...their not in Railworks I was just giving a rough example of what I wanted the paint scheme to look like.

Speaking of Cimarron, I've been editing it for the past few days, I'm redoing all my routes to have more detail and to be more along the timeframe I like (somethere between the 1880's and 1930's)

Just did this this morning...




Pretty happy with the way it came out Now I just need some nice repaints to go with my routes!

Wow, where are you geting this amazing scenery?

[B-24_LIBERATOR]

It's a combination of logs, rock blocks, and some wood beams. Basic stuff

[mdurdan]

WOW that is creative! AWESOME JOB!!!

[B-24_LIBERATOR]

Thanks! Now it needs a real purdy 4-4-0 to run along it

I assume you have a long list Mike. I'll mess with the Prairie a bit and see what I can do.

Do you think you could do this scheme on a SD40 and Dash 9?

[B-24_LIBERATOR]

Almost there.

Cool! Looking great! Were you gonna make the driving rods silver as well? and make the boiler and other black areas a tad darker?

EDIT: could you also add these little white pinstripes stripes and make the colors similar to this?

Hey all, sorry to announce that I have been having problems with my computer and have lost EVERYTHING, I had a good 70% of these done and looking pretty decent. I will be looking back in to these sometime in the future (maybe this fall?) and picking out a few of my favorites to do and a few others. I am currently back up and running on my new desktop but an at all default

I will be back to building and so on soon, my current project is a North-East PA route based around Scranton and branching off in many directions, keep an eye on the WIPs for it

[NS9030]

Sorry to hear that but im glad you got it back up and super glad the route is ok!

Perhaps a repaint of DTM's excellent GP30 into CB&Q colors?
