I'm pleased to announce my new loco MOC. It's a BB72000, a very common french
locomotive.

<<http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Banban/BB7200-Loco/img_1933.jpg>>

That is a very impressive loco and very detailed.
The front end is cleverly done, and I expect it would be difficult to do
in 6 wide :)

Congrats.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, that was quite difficult to design. Of course there was several versions
and in fact one day I had to rebuild the loco entirely to remove 2 plates in
height because I found it to high.

The middle of the loco is ashamedly easy, just stacked bricks... :-)

I never tried to do a 6 wide train, so I don't know if it would be more
difficult... probably yes. :-)

Yours.

Indeed, the front is very well done!  I love the orange triangular bib.

The middle of the loco is ashamedly easy, just stacked bricks... :-)

Yet, stacked very well with good texture and relief.

I never tried to do a 6 wide train, so I don't know if it would be more
difficult... probably yes. :-)

Regardless, a really nice 8-wide with lots of nice little details.

Great model!
