RE: Conrail Stuff

I'm waiting for Dick Cowen to come out with his SD70, I think Adam is making one from MLT's model.

>when someone from NALW says Yes.. most likely it will be
>them.. If you look back in the forums using my name you should be able to come up with some photos of my SD70 units. Here is what I'm looking at doing.Conrail - A/C unit
IC - No A/C unit
IC - A/C unit
NS - Early no A/C unit
NS - Former Conrail A/C unit
Blank skin for repainters...All models will be number specific, appropriate plow, antenna, etc... I'm going to work right from photos of that specific unit.The shots on the forums are of the old models... I have since updated them with new shapes and now i'm begining with new textures.
I don't have an ETA as I don't have much time as of late to do anything MSTS related.Will post shots as I progress...

I know you probably meant MSTS, but I figure this can't hurt to post here. She's maybe 80% done in this pic, some more tweaking left before I upload and start on the next one.Conrail Stuff – image 8

I'm planning on making several Conrail units in the near future, I don't know the exact types yet.

RE: Conrail Stuff

I knew about the numbering it's a stock Trainz number. The logo, oddly enough is about right for its size. I actually worked off of a side shot of an SD to pattern that. I'll try the other fonts, but in the end, I may just hand draw it as I did the Logo. The only thing Paintshed did was give me the base color *G*. I'm seriously tempted to finish my SP cars now, but since I don't particularly like the line, they're on the back burner.
