          Old trams have 10x the appeal to the modern trams. Less is more.

                    That came out really good. I was wondering how you got the side image. Panorama shot?

                      I took about 30 photos and merged them in photoshop and deleted the windows and filled the texture with AI.

                      a also took a 3D Scan but this is not usable

                                Very smart. 3D printing really must have completely disrupted the mini-model market. Never really thought about until I saw your trains.

                                The cost to print vs buying a kit must be an order of magnitude cheaper.

                                          jo-ke. With this sort of project you are indeed the Mr Kipling of render/build. You make exceedingly good (Cake) projects.

                                            A friend of mine, working at the Tramway company is printing it for me.
