I've been painting needed track-side objects - Vintage Box trucks

YES ... !*YAAA*!

I've chosen 2 box truck type that could offer ease of repainting and alteration of the .geopcdx to bring a greater variety - my find was the GX_boxtruck from the Portland Terminal Route. I was quite successful with its box truck (as you have seen) but the semi-trailer model cannot map properly both sides (the mirror image is inversed). Not very useful for multiple paint schemes, unless one does solid colors and no text.

A quick progress report...

New additions : 3 Sears and Roebuck schemes and an A&P version

Patience, QcRail

Great news *&!welcome!&*

Buzz456 helped me to change the texture canvas from 512x512 to 1024x2034; thus improving resolution and thus crisper and finer detail...

... to illustrate, I've finished my first cut of the famous REA delivery fleet and the result speaks for themselves. I'll keep one version with a white cab but all other will have a green cab as well + advertising poster on its side (been thinking of the vintage Marlboro cowboy poster or the camel !*brav*! )

A needed item and Very impressive work.

Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

Research showed that the 2 classic cigarette ads - «The Marlboro Cowboy» or «Joe Camel» made their appearance in the 70's !!**sorry**!!

Thus to be more in tune with the REA operations of steam to diesel era, I chose to stay with older vintage posters (hard to find!!!); therefore that is what we have....
