VEHICLE: steam locomotive

Looking good. Right now the scale looks off, because there is no refrence for your eye. Lighting could be a bit better, a little bit more ambient light.

Just keep in mind if this is a new" or "dirty" old train. Textures will help alot, looks good though.

certainly the lack of a scene doesnt give much in the way of help in showing off the model to its best. I should probably take the time to at least make a track and light it properly. point taken.

On the subject of textures.. Trains (especially in the very efficient german 'bahn') were very well maintained indeed, being kept clean and quite polished by their operators. So rust and general neglect is out there. Some grease and suchlike around the lower portions would not go amiss at all though.

To an extent I am guided by the final use, which will be in a game where the engine will bot be seen at over 200 pixels length.

I would agree with the comments above, it looks like a great model (although not quite a finished image). It appears accurate and detailed technically great just not very exciting in the image.

I am persuaded lol. I shall return with a finished scene, to go with the finished model
