            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.

                                    Thank you.

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

                                            I think the complete workflow will change.

                                            this took me less than one minute... look at the consistance of the details of my model!!

                                            Prompt: "Generate an image of a tramway, driving on tracks in a landscape between Mannheim and Heidelberg in Germany, keep geometrie"

                                            SU to nano banana:
