Thank you all (si salut Romanilor!)
Originally I had planned to make them for Microsoft Train Simulator/Rail Simulator so I was limited to 50,000 polys per model, this particular locomotive is my 2nd model since I started using Sketchup, the rest will follow up soon in the 'textured bin' (hopefully). More to come.. (not just locomotives) -
Outstanding result, Radu!
Sincer vorbind, ma furnica pe spinare, dat fiind faptul ca am facut liceul la cfr, si in perioada de practica, mi-am petrecut timpul stergand motorina prin panaramele astea de LDE-uri. Esti meserias...bravos! -
stefanq: please use English so other users can understand the fun that you had in highschool
raduteo: nice modelling and texturing. keep them coming !
-
Thank you both!
As a railfan I sure do envy the fact that you got to smell and hear (and clean) the delightful SULZER 12LDA28 engine. -
Absolutely great work! the textures are outstanding.
-
Went back to refine this game model a bit, better textures, better geometry:

Great photo, cannot wait for the render..
That's awesome!!, well done.
-
that's incredible!!! -
-
Fantastic!
-
Fantastic texturing...nice Vray renders.

This is going to be great once textured!
It's already textured
Sorry I had only looked at the first page

Thanks for sharing you don't know it but me looking at your work re-started my passion for railways i am seriously now trying to draw locos etc you have set a magnificent standard to strive to thank you and please keep on showing us your work
-
Beautiful!! -
wow...these are ridiculous! amazing texturing....and modelling...but the texturing...just unreal....
-
Absolutely gorgeous! I tend to avoid the "industrial" models that show up as they aren't usually my cup of tea, but these are just beautiful!
-
Really really cool. Well done. I really think youre texturing skills are superb and should give us a load down how you go by putting textures on and preparing it. I love the detailed white models and it actually shows off a great deal of detail. You should build a mountain and put the train on a nice high steel bridge with a huge waterfall coming down the mountain as the train exits the tunnel. Superbly done! I would really love to see more.

Thank you all.
As a 2D artist I find texturing the same as doing any other artistical piece, now it's time to leave real clay modelling for 3D modelling and go all digital. I did another re-texture on the locomotive, tried to recreate a classic that's long been gone:http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/4052/da711.jpg
Now as I am more confortable with the program, I feel ready to tackle my concepts and transfer them to 3D, so hopefully when the time comes to post another image it will be something completely different, possibly this:

Radu,
Utterly stunning work. The clay model renders on the first few pages were very impressive (very curious how you did the rails, sleepers and ballast stones between them- are they rendered or Photoshopped?), but the texturing work is unbelievable!
Aside from your incredible texture map making skills, I'm especially curious how you applied the texture onto the main bodywork of the train, around the chamfered corners for example? It's so well done it looks pelt mapped.
Stunning, looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.

Thanks. The railway track from the first renders is a simple model from the warehouse, the stones are just textures.
I did have a problem with applying textures to rounded corners because projecting from either the front or the side distors the texture so what I did was project the texture onto the curved surface, went and turned off projection on every single face that makes up the curve and repositioned manually untill it fit, a tool that unwraps surfaces such as this into flat planes would of been a huge time saver, one more:
