Fantastic, Dolphus, simply fantastic...and the details

[Swindel]

Yeah, talking about details, aren't these beautiful models really laggy? By the way, can you render your machines? (sorry if you already do this, and I can't remember from when i skimmed through all the pages).

Have fun Modelling You should try something like those sci-fi magnet propelled monorail thingies! That'd be quite cool

No pain, no gain They're probably a little laggy, but I'm sure Dolphus uses components to maximize Sketchup performance

[dolphus]

Thanks for your comments guys ....and yes i have been eyeballing "maglev etc" as a future project ....watch this space
As to rendering i do not have much success (Kerky) so i stick to something i have more success with

[dolphus]

My first peep at MAGLEV.....

[pilou]

Maybe this can interest you
this one in English

[dolphus]

Thanks Pilou looks as if the "air Train concept" could become challenging to model thanks for the "Ideas"

Here are a few models of maglevs on the 3dwarhouse, you might like to see, if you haven't already.

Thanks for the comments chaps

[dolphus]

Future Freighter?

Any and all comments welcome

[dolphus]

Well well well over 300 peeps but not 1 comment on the "maglev" project ....i suppose a no comment also says something....so moving on....
Here is the first step in my next project a General Electric E44 electric locomotive (my first) it receives it's power from overhead power lines

[d12dozr]

[dolphus]

Creating the environment, setting the scene
