No problem, i know that it is not the Kerkythea, but my own laptop has a bug at the moment it cuts out if i push it a bit it is a memory related bug as it does the same thing when my train simulator has been running for a few minutes, and if i have several programs open and go online to download things, with my limited knowledge of hardware i am trying to find the problem, any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the kind words i am using Kerkythea but still have a lot to learn about rendering i don't think i am going to get much further than i am now either the file is to big or i have a glitch in my laptop
BUT NEVER SAY DIE

Hard to really criticize or help with such small pics but keep on trying

The main file is about 9;46 meg at the moment but i am working in bits and pieces in various other drawings of the same project, that is where i am now running into problems with rendering the model the following ate the bestquality that i can get at the moment without my poor old laptop bombing out

Thanks Marion, Daniel but still a long way to go i will show more later today

Rusty but improving?

I must get you to render my Loco your work is very impressive the metal sphere is very mind blowing but the tank car texture really got me excited, i still have a lot to learn with rendering i am using Kerkythea and it is steching my limited ability to the limit, thanks for sharing

Thanks for your comment in so far as the coupler is concerned fair comment, i had a look at your loco at the link you so kindly provided, very impressive well done, once my loco is rendered i think i will be able ro stand next to yours head high......
my first render...

Almost finished with Phase 1 couple of missing bits to fill in still

Thanks for showing it looks fabulous very good

Awesome i would like to see the models with a lighter background the detail is no to clear, but that's me please keep on posting

Looking good are yiu going to make a tractor for it? keep up the good work

Excellence an inspiration to a mere mortal like me please post more

One more step completed (detail on roof) more tomorrow

More progress with doing the boring bits now for some of the bits i am looking forward to

I DON'T KNOW HOW I MISSED THIS POSTING OF YOURS BEFORE (OLD AGE I SUPPOSE) BUT IT IS TRULY AMAZING VERY WELL DONE I AM IMPRESSED

And i am not cheating with the clasps, hinges and louver panels

aaahh the 'work goes onn......

Very well done i like the detail and clean finish to your work keep posting

I did better than expected today appart from a fair amount of detail to the loco shell i also re-drew the bogie to me it looks much better than before

Don't ask about the polly count that's out the window I have decided to plow on and finish the model then return and seriously tackle the problem of polly reduction.
The drawing from which the latest 2D pics was taken is 4.89 meg and rising
