I see there is a new SD40 undecorated non dynamic brake model in the library.My question is has anyone revised a model of it so as to get rid of the sunken in headlight on the nose? This would make a great model for some SOO line engines.If some one has a model of the SD 40 that has been revised or could revise it for me I would Paint and upload some SOO LINE engines.
Thanks
Roger

Roger,If you will look immediately under the front cab windows on the alpha channel for SD402.ace, you will see a vertical rectangle. If you delete that black rectangle, it will fill in the nose recess.-VerneNew SD40 Model Non Dynamic? – image 1

There are actually two places on the alpha channel that have to be "whited out" before the noselight can be completely removed. Verne mentioned one, but left out the other. The one he mentioned is at the bottom of the pic below while the one he left out is in the middle.
