My first ever repaint for railworks SD40T Bessemer

If you are talking about the numbers UNDER the logo what you need to do is go make a set of numbers the same color as the cab and then they will be invisible. Joe may have something smarter to say about the auto numbering.

well here's another update most of the engine is done just need some touch ups and figure out how to get rid of the numbers over the logo and how to do the number Board's cause i have no idea or the auto numbers so i'm gonna probably do a few just different numbers

I think you mentioned earlier that you were painting with Paint.net. You can do the same as the tutorial with it if you don't have gimp and don't want to have to learn another painting tool right now.

Brighten up the orange a bit more so it isn't so dark in RW's poor lighting. Otherwise, its freakin' beautiful!

Don't light it too much, I think it looks okay. It kind of looks like he isn't using TSX am I right or no?

Whatever you do don't listen to BNSF Dude. He's never seen anything that he can't criticize.

From what I've seen that's kinda true. Make the repaint how YOU want it. Don't let other try to change what YOU are doing. These suggestions are at the bottom.
