ESMX 2019 Peace on Earth Boxcar

Unread postby FoodMonsterGuy » Tue Dec 03, 2019 3:26 pm

Pictured is an N Scale boxcar by Eastern Seaboard Models for the 2019 Christmas season. Looking at it the 50ft. Boxcar from various DTG add-ons(Marias Pass, BN/BNSF SD40-2s, Miami-WPB) makes a good repaint candidate. Anyone willing to do it?

You'll need to provide much better pictures for anyone to accept the task.

What all would I need? More angles?

Can to find a square on picture? I messed with this but couldn't get stuff to line up from this pic. Maybe someone else can figure it out .

In Photoshop there is a process called SKEW. You can straighten it out with that. What are you using?

I don't have Photoshop. I tried to do it with GIMP. I might give it another try since I really don't know what I'm doing.

If your printer has a scanner on it, try scanning the car sides and see how that comes out, as well as taking some more "straight-on", "up close" photo's in good light.

Thanks to Hobo1960 (Kevin) i got a real nice image to work with. I'm doing this on Great Northerners' 50 foot box car since it's free so everyone can share this if they want. I should have it finished tonight.

I just have to get the numbers sorted out and she should be good to go. Not perfect but in plenty of time for the holidays.
