Everything looks great. Too bad the black stuff doesn't photograph well. Car by

1) Bulkhead Flat Car with 'Lumber Load':

The lumber needs some work!  Anyone have any ideas?

I really like this car. In the photos the lumber looks fine, even the empty car
looks great. I do not know why, but I really like this one, even empty. I like
the nubs and bits on the bottom, and I like the way you used the modified 1x1
and 1x2's to add detail and texture. Now I want a bulkhead flat car.

2) Gondola:

Hmm, the blue and gray color combo looks weird, but I think the weirdness is
from the camera or my monitor. The blue look to bright.

3) Waffle Side Box Car:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/cook_thomas/Trains/Waffle/waffle.htm

This looks neat, but I think it is a bit to tall.

Also, previously seen at the recent wamaLTC meeting:
4) 44 Tonner (switcher):
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/cook_thomas/Trains/44tonner/44tonner.htm

Cool, but it is difficult to see the details

5) MP15 (multipurpose loco):
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/cook_thomas/Trains/MP15/MP15.htm

Very cool even though it is difficult to see details.

6) SD45 (six axle loco)
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/cook_thomas/Trains/SD45/SD45.htm

See above

7) Slug (traction motors only; no prime mover)
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/cook_thomas/Trains/Slug/Slug.htm

weird


Thanks for sharing,
Chris

I agree the black is hard to photograph :( With the Waffle side car, I was going for an excess height highcube look (URL) . It's supposed to be taller tan a regular box car, but did I go too tall? The funny blue may be due to my cheap camera :( I'm (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org.wamaltc)
