Lancashire type steam boilers

Very cool! I like industrial thematic, but where is heat insulation ?

Hi Nemesis, I debated with myself, long and hard, about lagging the pipes and valves but decided to model the said pipes and valves as a bit more interesting/challenging and have them 'on show'. Not correct I know. I operated steam plant for a number of years and would be the first to appreciate the skill of the industrial lagging specialists so it was a toss up between the two options.

very nice

Any render updates?

Haven't managed to update yet (got side-tracked, which is easy with SU) but will do so soon!

Once again, thank you all for the comments and observations. I have had a go at addressing some of these and the attached images are the result. Still a long way to go but the process is always interesting! In particular, I tried to adjust the lighting to better reflect the historical period, as suggested by L i am. Initially I added a dash of yellow to the pendant lights but this looked terrible! I looked on-line for RGB values for incandescent light and there is plenty of information available for all kinds of different light sources. Incandescent appears to be more orange and that is where I started from. (RGB = 255,197,41 for a 40w lamp)

Looks good. I think the new light temperature is perfect.

Thank you Bryan, much appreciated! I am thinking of trying a railway themed model next.
