RE: Coke anyone?

I have several liveries in mind to do, CSX, TCMX, and NS. Have all of the pics ready. But I quess I jinxed myself with this post, this morning the old computer up and did a number on me. Wont boot because of some NTLDR file missing. Actually, LHW got me interested in this with his posts over at 3dtrains of his steel mill. Thanks for all of the positive posts.

RE: Coke anyone?

For the chip fans, I have this in 75% mode. Texturing has to be redone, too much yellow. For other roads I need to add some different color swatches to the bitmap.

RE: Coke anyone?

Yep, looks great! Hey, were you and I working together on a different 5 bay hoppers once upon a time? It seems like it was you, but that was over a year ago and I've forgotten now. If it was you, sorry for my bad memory! Anyway, these hoppers look great and I'm looking forward to the chippers.
