      thank you for your comments.

      @Rich O Brien
      thank you, but i am far away to be a competitor to jo-ke.

      @Bryan K
      currently I have mostly railway buildigs, only a few trains.

      @jo-ke
      Good question about the girl. Maybe just a romantic girl who might want to pick flowers.

    • RE: [WIP] Woodworking Lathe -- Late 1800's

      Hello Dave,
      i like your lathe and steam engine. The steam engine seams to be a little bit oversized for your lathe.
      In former days they had spezial models to fit the needs of small workshops. Here an example hanging on a wall:

      TL021137.jpg

      Dampfmaschiene (FILEminimizer) (2).jpg

      I found the drawing some time ago in the internet and started a sketchup drawing. As you can see still wisp (work in slow Progress).
      To build a live steam model you find a similar engine here:

      Hello Mathias,
      thank you for the interesting links. After some researche i got a idea how to attach the wire to the pole. I found your modell at the 3dwarehous and used it for a render with wire. Thanks for sharing. 👍 👍 👍

      Hi Matthias (kolibri69),
      in my previous post i set a link to a drawing of a pole/pylon. I think the pole could be a good addition to your tram. Yesterday I made a quick sketchup Modell of this pole and a Twilight render. If you don't mind i show the result in this thread.
      Mast2b.jpg
      In the moment i don't know, how the wire was attached to the pole.
      If i disturb your thread, i will delate my entry.

      i don't know why the jpg-links don't work. You have to copy the links manualy into your browser (without the url-tags).

    • RE: Railway level crossing house

      Last weekend i visited Wittenberge again and took some fotos of the original location. I stiched the fotos to one panorama. I put a big arc to the scene and used the panorama as texture.

      Schrankenposten Wittenberge_16b.jpg

      I added some humans from the 3dwarehouse and a free train from turbosquid ( https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-diesel-locomotive/786001 ). The train is romanian. To look more „german“ i adjusted the colours and changed a few details (e.g. spooked wheels, backlights).

      Schrankenposten Wittenberge_16d (2) (FILEminimizer2).jpg

      Schrankenposten Wittenberge_16b (3) (FILEminimizer2).jpg

      Schrankenposten Wittenberge_16c (2) (FILEminimizer2).jpg

      The render was done with Twilight renderer (hobby). Is there a way to use the panorama as background with the enviroment editor?
