Oh! I think it will be difficult to reverse-ingeeniering my loco, since there

Reverse engineering is fun! :-PPP

alternatively you can download the .ldr file and let mlcad generate the images
on your computer, offline...
I redesigned your loco eliminating all the tiles’ grooves and making it
smoother. I also designed the underframe (side tanks) so that it shows less gaps
between parts.
Hope it helps you and, by the way, you built a great MOC.

PS the only thing I’d really change is the orange line: I don’t like much the
zig-zag gaps (tiles put at 45 degrees don’t fill completely the angled space)
and I’d redesign the nose, which seems too high to me. In particular, the orange
line should become narrower, moving from the center to the nose. I’ll probably
make it 2 plates high in the center and one plate high in the nose, with a 1.5
plates high transition. But this means TOTALLY redesigning the loco. Which is as
complicated as the reverse engineering, so it MUST be done, hehehehe...
