RE: weatherd conrail car

Know what I really enjoy about MSTS? 99% of the rolling stock isn't contaminated with graffiti. Talk about a waste of paint! And for those folks who say it's "artistic expression"... give me your address so I can drop by your house (or car) and "express" myself... No offense intended, Colman, I just hate seeing this stuff on real trains... you just keep on using PSP and stay away from the tracks!

RE: weatherd conrail car

Well it is going to be released with permission soon, because theyre are people that do like graffiti on their cars. If you want the clean version go to valleypass and find it there. Or edward Sketchers website. Lol that was kinda funny though.well, new sig yay!

RE: weatherd conrail car

Aside from the fact that graffiti is vandalism, i think everyone has seen one or two works where they said wow. I hate it, but theres some amazing work out there! Too bad we cant get them to do it on paper and not trains.
As for the sim, its a part of real life, so i run some tagged cars for the sake of realism.Kevin V.

RE: weatherd conrail car

I agree with you Kevin. There's some very talented people out there doing some of this stuff. And while I am in no way condoning this form of vandalism, you got to admit that it adds to the realism (if that's what you're in to...). After all, probably 95% of the real rolling stock I see is tagged. Unfortunately, I guess it's a sign of the times we live in.

RE: weatherd conrail car

Remember when graffitti was done with chalk????
I like cars that look authentic,but then,I don't model anything newer than the 60's,basically.
Freedom of expression should not be done on somebody elses' property,(IMHO)..
The cars however look...authentic.

RE: weatherd conrail car

I like the bottom pic, but I think the graffiti in the top pic stands out a little too much.
