    Not relevant at the moment perhaps, but a tip:


    don't model small details like:
    - windows & windowsills
    - "luftgitter"
    - small accessplates
    - number or textshields
    - doorhandles


    and other parts like that.


    These parts can easily be done with texturing/normalmapping and makes those parts more
    controlable for texturing & weathering. Sometimes, modelling those parts separately prevent
    possible repaints. Furthermore, as a bonus, it saves you some (if not a lot of) polygons.


    As far as I know the DET 1-2 only had a Saxon and the RVT livery, but a fictional DRG-livery would be nice as well.

    Weiss nur das sie fälschlich für die schwerste deutsche E-Lok gehalten wird

    The E 95 was not the heaviest German electric, but it is the longest. And when it came out (1927), it was also the most powerful electric - maybe even the most powerful German locomotive at that time. At least I can't think of any German locomotive more powerful at that time.

    I've accumulated some stuff over the years.


    But the "fake boogie" theory: if that doesn't work, couldn't you (as a last ditch attempt) not make the two halves into two separate locomotives? Make it so that the two halves couple very close so it looks like they are conjoined. Of course it isn't the most elegant solution (it will be in fact two separate locomotives), but it could work... or not?


    While we're at it, the E 91:

    @Cadoras you asked for the paintjob? ;) You can color up anything i will build here :P After all we just need to find someone who will map the caos i produce ^^


    BTW i would suggest you can paint anything of the E18 and to solve the problem with the chassis you could draw something nice in any part of the texture and i will
    later pull the mapping over it. Dont know if you could follow my thougts atm.... Its a bit like drag and drop (and pull and push in position) on your texture...

    If I understand correctly, you mean I make a texture first, and then you (or someone else) will map the respective parts out of the texture? That ain't going to work I'm afraid. I need to test the whole shabang ingame to get it right, that means I need to have the actual model ingame and mapped.


    I (unfortunately) do not know how to map and/or model, although I will learn that sometime.

    Actually, that one looks pretty cool, too...

    Be careful mate - people have died in the ozeanblau/elfenbein debates. The E 18 in those colors sparked an outrage amongst the Liebhaber.
    One simply does not say you like this - you whisper it. Underneath a blanket. In a bunker. Seven miles deep. And you keep the picture next
    to this, this and this.


    - Ozeanblau/Elfenbein is like midgetporn, it's not for everyone. But the ones who do like it, will go great lengths to see it live.
    Cheap Doug Stanhope rip-off

    Jesus Christ, if this doesn't stop now I'll die blushing.


    My skills with the "brush" are still very much in development. Check my first (unupdated) filebase entries - they are living proof of that statement. With every project I learn new tricks. And I love to go full retard on these projects. This project will be the first time I'll do an electric, so that's very cool.

    Edit: Oh @Cadoras - havent seen your post. I realy already thought about it - in the Request have been drawings for that transporter too. And actually it processes really fast (when you see the few steps and an already nice model... ^^).


    That would be great - it would surely get the most of this little gem of a model.

    I love your work dude. May I be so cheeky to ask if you're going to do a goods version of this fantastic version? It would be perfect as a small goods carrier.


    Feel free to answer in German by the way.

    Concerning different colors:


    The 001 and 002 always had the same color, being "Weinrot" - but according to Kampen/Wenzel ("Die Baureihe 03.10") the color changed in 1942 (002) and 1943 (001) to grey. Probably the blueish grey we've seen on other streamliners. After the war the original colors were restored.


    We must not forget that both 001 & 002 already had lost part of their "Verkleidung" in 1941 (002) and 1942 (001), probably to make maintenance easier during wartime. The color was probably changed to try to make them less visible from the air. After the war they were put out of commission for some time before being revised in 1947/1948 (?), that's when the original colors were restored I believe.


    I believe that most of the color variants, as portrayed by the modelling companies, are fictional or suggested liveries.
