Our second developer is busy modelling a boxcar from past - Gbk:

Sr1 progress other side

Minor texture tweaking today. I noticed that there is actually no gap in red line in front of larger diagonal stripe in real locomotive painting so I had to remove it from texture.

Roof got 3 additional subtle layers of dirt and first tests with specular values were done.

Yay, it is nice to continue the texturing work after few weeks of holiday including one in warm Dubai. Today roof got it's first layer of dirt. Again I try to not to overdo the effect like in old texture set.

For comparison here is a picture of old textures:

 The final result will be something in between those two.

Side texture got some additional details today and ventilation gratings were scaled and reformed to be more prototypical.

I managed to add few details to the left side today. 73 layers and still going up..

Sr1 texturing proceeded today with first layers of dirt. Its easy to overdo the effect with too many layers. Current layer count is 48 and increasing rapidly. One reason why I had to make this new texture is fact that without proper layer naming the photoshop file can become total chaos with unknown layers.
