That prototype picture had me confused at first. I thought the end was a huge radiator, not a window with blinds drawn :)

If you say so my friend, but it sure looks like a curtain to me.

Dude - get with the program. You’re 100 views behind my Shay post which includes Zero modeling skill so far. Here you are doing 100 times the modeling I am and your fanbase has left you high and dry. Time to kick butt.

Jon,

It’s just that Rooster’s photo dumps coincide with his weekly trip to the throne.

Pavalov’s Dog, one action brings on another :wink:

What your seeing is a reflection of a corrugated box on a stack train

You happy for now?

Yup - Lookin’ good ~)

Not yet, but it’s looking good buddy

Nope…

I wish you’d explain what all those little details are you’re putting on that thing.

What are these for?

And what the heck are those things? Tiny weathervanes?

It’s very pretty, but what the heck is it?

Pictures are nice but some explaination of what we’re seeing would be nice, too.

Not knowing anything about the car Rooster is building, I would say the gages look like track inspection stuff and that is why there is such a large window at the back of the car.

Because really, who wants to watch the back of a train and call it scenic.

Ken

Actually all I can answer correctly is the last piece which is the garage door opener. The (weathervanes) not sure and that has been suggested but I honesltly think they are some kind of electricial kill switches as they sit directly above the electricial cabinet and they look like a large version of a race car main kill switch. But I don’t know. I don’t have the time to research each piece nor do I care. As the topic states “By my eye” just looking at pictures and building like I do.

Jake #9 is actually a Theater Car that has tiered theater seating

I’m waiting for the wavy skin look. :wink:

Looking good. I can tell you play with doll houses. Your a little too good with the details :wink:

We can tell you play with my little pony’s and hello kitty stuff. However nobody cares as they just wanna see what you model in large scale trains.

Right??

Just say yes!

I cant tell what all of them are, #2 from the left is a clock. Center looks like a speedometer. No clue on the other three except one is probably brake pipe pressure and one could be a thermometer.
