Cool. Are you going to try smooth tiles instead of plates on the ends? One other
question, did you try stepping tiles in place of the 1x8 tile? That is a tough
slope to model. I guess the choices are stepped tiles or a sloped tile with some
space under it. I take it that the stepped tiles just didn't look right. I think
it will look very cool once the nose is the right color!
Oh yeah, are the middle trucks attached to anything? It doesn't look like the
engine flexes, and it is just not possible to have all four trucks attached (by
pins or swivel bricks) to the frame.
Again, Cool.
