Description

Following some of the suggestions given, I've improved (I think) the smoke, and dirtied things up a bit. Also, check in the original thread on the Cinema 4D forum ( http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?ForumID=12400&Form.ShowMessage=1028937 ) for some interesting variations. Thanks to all!

I know you've worked on the smoke a bit. Smoke is very difficult, but I think it still looks too solid. The steam from the sides looks great. I just checked out the thread and I think your Black and White version is my favorite. The smoke even looks better in it.

I agree on the stack smoke, even though the piston smoke is great...But the rest of the scene is awesome. I love the grid work on the rafters...

Looks great, sorry but have to agree on the smoke. Pyrocluster?? I've had a rough time with it. That's not enough to keep me from giving this an Excellent though! I love the little details like the off-kilter "B" in Birmingham. A butt-load of work went into this, I can tell.

the smoke needs to be flowing in a direction rather than just up to give the feeling of wind, try fading it out to nothing. Try a sepia tone to the whole picture and add some scratches over the top will give it a real aged victorian type look. :)

That's a great work, I probably could not do the same

Cracking model there. All you need now is an animation with some sound effects. :)

Well, I'm going to disagree about the smoke. It can look that 'thick'. Might be nice to distress it a little, although these trains where new once! My only suggestion would be to drop the camera and tilt up to give it more scale and, as suggested above, play around with the finished image in photoshop. One last question: why is the B of Birmingham falling off? (Mind you, knowing Birmingham I can understand why!)
