SOO Bandits

[burgerbern]

Been working up a set of GP40 Bandits using the GP40 from the TS MILW Freight Pack for a while now and finally have them near completion, here are a few screenies, doing all the paperwork and checks at the moment, hope to upload within a week.

Nicely done!!! Glad to see you are still around and doing the occasional project, as I've always enjoyed your work.

Been on a GP40 kick myself, so I'll definitely be downloading these. They look great!

I have been looking at the SOO LINE photos here http://www.railtrekker.rrpicturearch....aspx?id=12097. Maybe it is our old eyes, but I am having trouble seeing any orange it your work. Is it just me?

Its just you, plenty or orange in the screenies, would not be SOO bandits without it, these depict them before all the black patch paint on the side faded as per the majority of the pics in your link which are much more recent than the ones i used as a guide where most of the black was still in place

Will be another week before these hit the library as my beta tester is on holiday at present, also making up another pack of engines, this time the SOO SD40-2's in the red livery, these were sent to me a long time ago by Jeff Auberpine, and before he left the hobby he did give me permission to upload any of his work to this site, so have made up the pack on his behalf and added Cabview and sound from files that can be downloaded from here, so here is a pic of the engines, will also upload these after the beta test to make sure i have got the cab and sound integrated correctly.

I repeat these are not my work, these were done by Jeff Auberpine along with a custom FA he also created.

Just an observation but in the first picture of 2015 being in the reverse position the smoke is still in the rear position so it looks like it's coming out of the cab??

its an optical illusion, the smoke has gone into seperate puffs at thet viewing angle and the one at the stack is not yet made its appearance and the other three are moving away from it and the one above the cab its not originating there its just moving past and the next one from the stack is about to appear, just bad timing on the screenshot.

OK, that makes sense, thanks..

Have just uploaded both sets to the library (I hope) so will be available once approved, the Red units use the freeware BN SD40-2 shape given away by Danny Beck and are included with the download plus 2 separate downloads from this site for the cabview and sounds. The Bandits require a shape file plus cab and sound files from the TS MILW pack.

They're in.
