Show off your custom repaints/models/etc.

My latest project is a CB&Q GP30 with (somewhat) prototypical weathering. I hope to upload it eventually.

Here's one for you HO scale modelers.

Decided to reskin some of the Ruel rolling stock into something more "fantasy-but-technically-period-correct" for the trains I am running on the CN system. The Algoma Central caboose is based on a picture of an Atlas model, just with a hasty "AC" patch, retaining the CN numbering and addition of the Algoma Central logo. The current plan is to make a few, with one being exclusively for international service with the yellow cupola. The caboose already being in CN colors makes this a good starting point for WC and AC vans.Open Rails NewYear MG 2026-02-14 04-54-16.png

Indiana Railroad's SD70M #7006. Also a reskin for a route I'm making for Open Rails.

Progress started around early 2025. Since there were no INRD SD70M's, and not even the now retired SD9043MAC's were available, so what I decided I was going to do repaints of the whole INRD SD70M roster, which I ended up only doing #7006. At the same time, I went through an external drive crash, where I had a lot of files. Luckily, I was able to obtain the repaint, and I still had the installer for the UP SD70M engines (which is what I repainted) stored on my CPU's drive. A year later, I found out someone else already uploaded the exact same units onto the file library, which made me kinda quit on this.

So why not do the other INRD SD70M numbers that weren't done? Still got the option to fill out the roster.

I tried making BNSF 599. (the patches may look weird but that was how it appeared when BNSF inherited it and I'm sorry if it's bad, It's my first renumbering attempt, You can dislike all you want unless you think I did a good job because it's Free Dislike.) Screenshot 2026-11-06 162013.png

Does something like this count?

It's not the Bates Motel, but still a great screenshot.
