Simmers,Even though I model US routes, I saw this engine in the files library today and just had to comment. This is a piece of artwork. This is truly "Fine-Scale" modeing in MSTS! Great work deserves being noticed.Enrico: In my humble opinion, this locomotive illustrates that you are indeed one of the Master Locomotive Modelers of MSTS. Great job.Andre Ming
Yup, the detail is amazing. Plus, I think the texturing is superb. The shades of black and the usage of various towns add depth and make it look very "realistic" to my eyes. Top notch in every respect.I'm tempted to download that little beauty and find me a mountainous Euro route to enjoy it on!!I can almost hear that little peanut whistle screeching!Andre

Dear friends, what can I say? Thank you all for your comments, I'm very, very glad you appreciate my models, it's because of my love for old rolling stock, especially italian steamers, that I can sometimes do something good...so, thank you one more time and please, feel free to write me if you like to know something about italian locomotives.Hope to hear from you soon.
Enrico:Not only is your level of detail on that locomotive impressive, but the texturing gives the appearance of actual metal. This is especially noticiable on the exhaust stack and the steam dome. Very good effect. Wish you could teach me how to do some of that! Alas, true artistry can't be taught.Fantastico!CiaoAndre Ming
