The new GP15 looks really good.

Unread postby MadMike1024 » Sun Apr 10, 2011 8:37 pm

A great addition to the second gen roster. I have some repaints that were waiting for one to show up. I have a question for Mr. Brindley though, is there a repaint template for the model? Decompiling the original .TgPcDx files give a somewhat muddy and blurred appearance when you lighten them to get the lines to appear. Any help would be appreciated.

What is the difference between the new GP15 and the original one?

Generally no, he doesn't do templates. I'll see what I can do.

Something is up. The horn is not working on either GP7 and GP15, nor do they have couplers in play mode (everything else does).

Update: Never mind. I didn't have Kuji included.

I'd do like I did with Cornell's GP 38, but the skin looks though it had been expanded and shrunk several times, it's blotchy and the lines are smeared.

Bill Platt did a great template for the GP7.

If I remember correctly the GP15 is a PITA to repaint because of the plaque on each side of the cab.
