E8 Re-paints

[GERUNIMO625]

So AWESOME to see these live, breath, growl, and belch smoke again!
Many a fond memory riding into and out of Chicago with these at the head end when I was a boy.
Absolutely GREAT work!

Thanks for the compliments guys! Here's the first two of five numbers completed.

Nice work! You got the font for the numbers on the carbody exactly right

[Logan20131]

That's something I'm good at. Locating numbers and letters in the right spots and finding the closest fonts. Thanks for the compliments!

Obligatory B&M request:



This'll probably have to wait until someone works out the best way to model the portholes on the single-light unit, but I'd figured I'd toss it out there at least.

I'm on it.

I definitely could use that base-model (or the knowledge on how to make it myself)

So we need E8's with freight pilots and different porthole locations too?

See my picture on the previous page.

Okay, So I realized I still need to recolor the Rivets to match.

Not the port holes, but the headlight.

What about the headlight? And how many different porthole locations are there?

[Logan20131]

Nevermind, I was meaning we need a version of the E8s with single headlight, but with the port holes. and with an option of freight pilots too.

I repeat........... if you look back at the previous page I have a picture of the single headlight version with port holes.

[Logan20131]

Yeah, I know, I wasn't the one who was asking about freight pilots and port holes to begin with. Your skin is great, I don't know what _o_OOOO_oo-Kanawha was meaning so I answered the best I knew.

Nice! Could you do the E9AMs that they used in commuter service? I've given up on trying to do it myself after days of editing, converting back like buzz's tutorial explains and then the old textures showing up.

[Logan20131]

Probably did something wrong, I made cones of the texture files so if something wrong did happen I don't need to worry about it.
