Beautiful job there Mr. Smokebox. Everything from your modelling to your texture work is incredible and I'm sure your coding will be just as good with your background and previous work.

Is this a piece of art, or is it model for a train simulator?

Amazing job Mike

looking good mike... i do have one quibble however.. i think i prefer the red based scheme it currently wears even if it isn't historically accurate... but that is down to my preferences and nothing to do with how you have modeled the locomotive

I actually started off with the red-based scheme but then added the green as new layers in the Photoshop files. That means I can fairly easily make a red-liveried variant for the package so that players can use whichever they prefer.

fair enough.. its like i said.. that comes down purely to my taste in decoration.. the model its self is stunning... right up there with the Jupiter and the FEF-3

Absolutely fantastic work as usual, Mike! I do have to wonder who at UP thought that red-and-green livery looked good, though. It looks like it belongs under a Christmas tree. Which kind of makes me want to buy it and run it on that model train route from a while back...

The holiday express route or game of gnomes seems like a nice route to run the 119.
