Description


I have been redoing a model of a kingston flyer I did a number of months ago in order to see how my modelling prowess has progressed and how much easier lightwave will make things. So far I am very happy with the progress. After day six, I have added the two boilers (I assume!) to the top of the train, redone the wheels, made a few very minor tweaks to the drivetrain, added more details to various parts, extended the hoses, added more pipes. The track was added to work on the wheels with some level of measure so that they were all uniform sizes. I am still not happy with the wheels, they now look like alloys from an Audi rather than train wheels so they will probably get redone again tommorrow. I cant help but feel that the drivetrain is somehow still wrong but I cant see where, or find what is wrong with it. I have been working from this shot - http://lh4.ggpht.com/_4KTLdAAhlbA/STx8SaQKoAI/AAAAAAAAA0A/ZNxEAIgZGZ8/IMG_1501.JPG Please see Part two for closer detail on the drivetrain, suggestions on where it is wrong from train buffs are more than welcome (my engineering skills are not as polished as I would like) Around 230K polys currently. Please view full size to see the details. All is being modelled in Lightwave 9.6 Comments and suggestions very welcome.
