I’m usually a lurker - and a space building lurker at that - but even us lurkers have to put up a MoC once in a while to prove we’re alive. So here it is, a locomotive from the RPG Final Fantasy VII, I think anything else is explained in the MoCPages post.

Excellent rendition and great choice of source material. Are you going to make the cars to go with it? They look fun to do and there’s some prime snot opportunity in them.

Strangely enough although I’ve more than two hundred hours of my life playing FF7 I can’t remember the train so I’m pleased you added a picture.

And that makes two fantasy trains in one week... must be a first.

That’s some hot space station justice right there. You’ve got me waxing nostalgic for FF7. A few criticisms: Firstly, even though it can’t be done in such a silver, there are ways to ameliorate the monolithic amount of black. I suggest adding some chrome-y bits and dark gray. For instance, the big Viking ship has copper flex-tube, even though Peeron says it’s red-brown. That would be favorite for replacing the black tubing. Also, the headlight bit as it is now looks like it could really hurt someone. I suggest replacing that harsh cone with this cute chrome reflector bowl thingy. I’m a great believer in that part.
