I came across this and thought of you. Nice reference image

@L-i-am nice, I like it.

here's my finished model: 1:87

Thought this looks cool

[jo-ke]

@L-i-am looks like AI

Absolutely, but sexy

Yes I know that one. Thank you. Last weekend it was the last day of these streetcars in our city.

this one is goinig to be modelled someday...

I have one of the same company but differnt type....

Those are beautiful. Always sad to see reliable older infrastructure consigned to history.

Especially after decades service. I understand the need to modernise but I find the design choices for the replacement tech is dull and lacks character.

I love to see engineering and mechanics.

@Rich-O-Brien

We are happy, that we were able to preserve one Model of each gerneration. This was hard enough.

these are still able to run: (current pictures)

@jo-ke I am wondering how do you do the texturing!

[jo-ke]

@majid in which case? In sketchup?

[majid]

The rusted one... It seems a nightmare to be textured!

[jo-ke]

@majid Ah, OK I see.

luckily this is a 3D Scan of an existing one, so it is porperly textured

[majid]

Oh yes, otherwise it would be a real nightmare to texture such a thing.

The result is great! Shot selection I really liked. The building remained the hero element in every angle so noticing the imported 3D buildings was largely avoided.

You must be delighted with the end result!
