Description A new render on Carson & Colorado #2 Bodie, using new reflectivity settings to simulate American iron, polished iron and brass. The boiler jacket shines even more fully from the top than the side, which is the main reason that the engine is offset to see the full reflection.

Although it may not look quite as nice as it does here in game, it's still a very attractive model!

Eh, I personally like the render better than in-game. The speculars and reflections are more controlled, and the bell especially looks really proper. Either way, I'm pretty happy with these things.

Will this reflection work in trainz?

Doubtful, due to the Trainz material system. The engine does have m.tbumpenv textures in-game, which includes reflections, but they don't look this good.

Finally! Some realistic Russia Iron, I hate seeing it represented as light blue.

Oops! That actually reminds me that I've been referring to it wrong(these engines technically had American iron jackets, similar but not quite the same). But to be honest, the boiler jacket wasn't the hard part, and it's actually fine in-game. It's the brass and polished iron that is causing me trouble.

Ah, I see. Although it came out quite nice in this screenshot, I really am impressed with your work.
