MOC: RENFE 252 Locomotive

[mtrkustoms]

I present my version of the RENFE 252 Locomotive in "Taxi" Scheme.

The real one:

And my LDD Version Rendered with POV-RAY:

Here pulling 2 estrella bed cars

and a little detail of the coupling:

I hope you like and enjoy it

Oooooh yes I like it! :wub:

Great nose and beautiful locomotive!

[zephyr1934]

A nice build on the locomotive and I also like how you did the diaphragms between cars. Although it might be tricky to pull off, you might be able to work out something with headlight bricks to get half plate offsets on the nose and smooth out the ridges.

That's one massive looking prototype and you've managed to capture that appearance really well.

[Commander Wolf]

I'm not a big fan of cascading those tiny slope tiles in illustrating surfaces, but I like the way you paneled the sides such that it reflects the actual locomotive appearance but doesn't just look like a big wall of gray.

Why are you coupling the cars with the little rubber thing? Is it just an aesthetic preference or is there some sort of benefit over the regular magnets?

[Hrw-Amen]

Looks good especially with those coaches on behind.

[lightningtiger]

I agree, looks better with rolling stock in tow......Brick On LDD On 'mtrkustoms' !

Good Job!!!.

Cascading tiles is good for adjusting to real model geometry in a first approximation.
