You asked.
As a picture, it is very pretty.
As a model, it has some major flaws:
- it uses pieces that don't exist (the nose piece, the doors perhaps)
- it uses decorations on pieces that don't exist (the BNSF lettering)
- it uses pieces in colors that don't exist (the cab windshield doesn't come in
red)
- it seems to be built in a way that won't be practical (the floor/frame
section is too thin, the couplers don't look like they'll go around corners)
So it seems that it's more of a pretty rendering than anything practically
buildable.
