@pbacot said: I assign the light components (the rendering object that defines the light -- not the model of the fixture) to a separate layer. For day scenes that layer would be hidden. It's not entirely interactive, as for live rendering or video. Something like that would be special feature of the rendering software, I think. Maybe TwinMotion does this? Hi pbacot, Thank you for your reply, I checked about twinmotion, looks like this the answer of my question, I will download and try it, if they have a free version or trial version

I believe there is only this one ? Vertex Tools by Thomthom

It looks like you made a nice 2D profile of the train but if you want to make that 3D and make it look right, I think you'll find you have an awful lot of work to do. Will you show the final model straight or will you want to put it on a curve or something to make it look more dramatic?

Sketchup just put a tutorial on this on you tube. https://youtu.be/JTj4t3R3qwg

I'm no expert by any means, but if I was to tackle something like this I would want side and front views for sure. Probably wouldn't hurt to have a top view also. good luck with the model.

Problem resolved TIG your plugin save my life and time sorry for the late of my reply

yes it's the 3D program who has the more speedy learning curve!
