Train (Mainly British) Pixel Art

[AdmiralLeviathan]

Not quite sure where to put this. "Screenshots" seemed to be mainly RW-Related so this subforum seems to be the best. Of course, if I missed an obvious forum for this I have no problems with the mods moving the topic as usual.

Pixel art of trains (Mainly British)!

6223 Princess Alice


6229 Duchess of Hamilton (Preserved at York)


Class 58 58 001 (Done for IC82)


6223 Big Version for clarity;


No American Trains now. . . too many pipes . Suggestions are open if you please.

I think the proportion on the wheels might be a bit off, but I couldn't find any side-profile pics. Also, that "S" looks a bit funky. I'll be tweaking that tomorrow.


Now for my main project Any guess?

Penn Central Black:


Remember, I'm not going for complete accuracy here. Consider the art "stylized".

Next project:

FP45's;

Santa Fe Warbonnet:

Something with the proportion looks wrong. I think it may be the front steps or something. Looks a bit too small down there, I dunno. Also, the Cigar-brand logo and the Blomberg trucks gave me hell trying to get looking right. I just can't draw or sprite EMDs at all.

Generitrak:

You see, in 2011 or so, I was doing an illustration for an art contest, in which I couldn't use copyrighted images, and I didn't want to risk using the "Amtrak" scheme or logos, so I made up the fictional "Generitrak". Fast forward to this school year in August, where I was doing a sketch in my journal of this engine, to which my school friend named it "Generitrak, the Communist Train". From that point onwards the name stuck and it's become a crazy in-joke.

EDIT: More schemes;

Santa Fe Yellowbonnet (Fictional):


Santa Fe Bluebonnet (Fictional):


Amtrak:


F45's;

Santa Fe Freight:


Ditto:

I hate it when people call F45's "FP45s". You can see where Santa Fe cut off the last few feet of the engine and shortened it.

Kodachrome:

I like the nickname "Shouldn't Paint So Fast"

Burlington Northern:

I like BN's locomotives. In fact, I didn't know they owned F45s until recently.

CB&Q:

Okay, so the Q didn't own F45s. This is probably what a CB&Q heritage unit would look like if it were an F45 owned by BN.

If I can find good photos of the Santa Fe ones I'll do them later.

Big Edit: I forgot the big "Trumpet", or as I call them, the "BLARG" horns on the roof, along with several inaccuracies.

EMD F7s;

Santa Fe Warbonnet:

I'll need to do some stainless steel coaches to go with these.

Santa Fe Bluebonnet:

Does anyone know what units used this scheme, when it was used, etc?

Santa Fe Yellowbonnet:

I like the paint on these units.

Burlington Northern:
