Apr-15-02, 11:47 PM (EST) "UP DASH9...just about ready!" After hours of messin with the eng file to get the lights...just right,I think it's about finished.Thanks to Jens Chris's textures,and Kelley's lights.(by the way Kelley the lights are finished).I went ahead and edited them myself...not bad eh?Some may feel the Up yellow is a little "Orangeish",but that's what i had to work with...I may lighten them,or adjust the saturation a tad'.I also added some 3d effects to the textures.Is it worth up-loading?After this it's "Break-time" for me...Or maybe a CNW Dash9???

Apr-16-02, 00:48 AM (EST) 1. "RE: UP DASH9...just about ready!" Not bad!!!One suggestion...the lettering needs to go a tad higher. After seeing over 100 of these Sunday, I think I will dream about them....BTW, E-mail me offline at niceoneace@aol.com OK?? Thanks!!Kelley

Apr-17-02, 07:51 AM (EST) 4. "RE: UP DASH9...just about ready!" The lettering is still way too low. Here's a reference pic to illustrate my point

Apr-17-02, 05:21 PM (EST) 6. "RE: UP DASH9...just about ready!" ..Ok,I fixed the lettering,adjusted the numberboards,and managed to get rid of the "orangish" tint.Now it looks more like Up yellow???Hope this is to your liking?

I was just going to ask you.........do you think in your spare time you could create a couple more of those by renumbering them for me?!?!? Would love to have a fleet of those great looking engines. If you could do it, let me know. Thanks,Jason Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
