Hi guys,
Decided to have a play with a NedTrain 700 class as I liked the colours and
loved the device on the front. I took a little artistic license with the side
doors to make them a bit more clear and also had to change the green on the
exhause pipe to lime as I dont have any 1x1 rounds in green.
Comments and crits welcome.

Looks very good! ...for a train ; ) the angles and colours are both very well
chosen and the overall effect is very pleasing on the eye!
God Bless,
Nathan
Now is this a 6 wide or 8 wide... ; )

Definitely a 6 ;) I think its maximum width is probably a bit over 7 studs at
the top of the siderails.
Also... I forgot to link in the first post to the
prototype.

I cant believe you used bley on that one. It totally clashes with all the warm
colors.

I think you should have used dark green...
Im glad you got it built after I distracted you. Im not 100% convinced by some
of the details, but its still so much better than I could could do Im not going
to complain. The slopes to give detail to the sides of the hoods is a clever
idea, especially for a colour with a limited parts range. If only those little
slopes didnt have such rounded corners

Hey, Tim. Great loco! The lime color scheme is very nice. My only complaint
would be the lime slopes. It looks, to me, from the prototype, that the sides
are flat. Would it be possible to use tiles instead? Or are you just trying to
show off you collection a little? ;) Anyways, good work. -Matt
