My MSTS models and stuff

Thought I'd show off a couple new models I've recently built.

Converted 12 foot flat car into a small gondola

Those look great, Rick!

Thanks, Curtis. I think they came out pretty well, too.
The Monson RR 'gang' are shrinking my models down to 2 foot gauge. I guess they like 'em, too. LOL

I've written a new tutorial for those who might want to make 3D chain. It's designed for the 'newbie' and shouldn't be of much interest to the 'old' hands out there who already know 3DC.
It comes in a .zip file in PDF format with a rusty texture for bucket filling the object.

It's called, Let's Make 3D Chain in 3D Canvas Pro v7.1.2.0 and can be found here.

Hope it can help someone...

Yuri from down under at the Steam4me site has graciously hosted my new tutorial.
He's given it a bit of a more professional re-write and I'm really excited about it.
Take a look-n-see;

Thanks again, Yuri

Why can't you load in MSTS?

Here's another I just released. It's a 50' queen post covered bridge.




One of my beta testers has installed it like this. I think he did a great job.



Have fun!

Hi all,
Wanted to show off my first released locomotive.
The RGS #1 was the first motor car the Rio Grande Southern Railroad (RGS) ever put on the rails.
It was custom build for W. D. Lee and constructed from a 1913 Model T Ford and was called an Inspection Car.

Also, this 1865 stock car...

How's everybody doing?

Neat cars, Rick!
Someday, I'll need to do a Model-T track inspection car for the V&T
