Locomotive MK2

[Vasillo]

A little train im making if Factorio had a locomotive MK2, its still a WIP, hasnt been properly textured

(the poor quality of the GIF is only because i was too impatient to properly sample it )

I really enjoy feedback, so i'd appreciate any comments you have to say, or any suggestions you wish to make.

Edit : I'd love to implement it into the game but im as useful as a wingless plane that's underwater being rolled over by a boat running aground at scripting, and plus i don't have any proper textures to apply to it

(THIS ISN'T MEANT TO BE PUT IN GAME)

Update 1

Added a small bit of texturing, still need to add rust and weather effects to the edges on the front to make it fit in a bit more

Update 2

Changed front cow catcher, darkened texture, and added top vents.

Update 3

Added more detail to top, added gradient to match style of ingame train.
(i plan to add more piping to the rear top)

Update 4

After seeing the new train models (Personally i think the train looks great, but the wheels look a bit big,)
I decided to redo the train so that it looks more like the new ingame train, of course it is the imagement
of a tier 2 train.
Its a bit hard to see the details, not that there is currently is any
The front shield appears blends in with the train but it is actually surrounding the front

update 5

Added side pipes and upper detail, attached front shield to train.

The main engine doesn't have its smoothing property active so its easier for me to edit, but the side is much smoother, will demonstrate in next update

update 6

Added bolts

update 7

Slowly adding details when ever i have free time.

update 8

School started, but got some time to add some more paneling and piping.

update 9

Adding more bolts and exhaust

update 9

Changed paneling, added more bolts

Please fix the image link.
Moved to textures, cause this is not art in the way I want to see it here.

Edit: To avoid misunderstanding: I meant that so, that the linked GIF looks like a texture. Now when I see the rest of that post (the link was broken) I will move it back to Art.

That is BTW the reason, why pics should always uploaded to the forum, cause external links can break.

I like the look of your train, seems like to me like an armored train. Really cool!

[Vasillo]

Thanks! I haven't been able to get much work on it done lately which sucks, but il try to get more work done on it soon!

What software are you using? BTW it looks great

[Vasillo]

Blender

[GlacierStorm]

Wow that's really cool!

[Vasillo]

Haven't been able to do much, busy with school work and other blender projects with higher priority

If you make a mod out of this maybe you could make the older one into an armored locomotive

I can make you a mod base to add the graphics to, just inform me if you need one.

Is it done as a mod?

[Impatient]

great work!
can you make it more steampunk-ish, so it is more in line with the vanilla graphics?

this is a 4-year-old post, I was surprised to get a notification about this. And I've moved onto newer things so this project has been dead for years

[Impatient]

oh, I see. Darkfrei necroed it.
