An animated loop basd on the games of the ZX Spectrum 8 bit micro from the 1980s

This was made in photoshop and Blender and just a fun little tribute to my all time favourite home computer

A sculpting exercise that allowed me to practice using the remesh tool in Blender, so my sculpts stop looking like plastic kid's meal toys.

The engine faces were originally placeholders but I ended up leaning into it and creating these "Engimal" things.

Just a thought on how the original story of 311 could translate well in terms of an analog horror thing. That's about it

Let a Freddy Fazbar tower defense game on Roblox out of all places to be the reason that I'm on a FNAF bender as of recent... This being a rendition of Mangle in the second game. The design is inspired by both actual animatronic designs and some fan designs back in the day.

#FNAF #Blender #FanArt
A FNAF 2 animatronic that goes by the name "Toy Foxy/Mangle" depending on the condition. Stylized to be more aligned with some 80s animatronic designs, Mangle here was specially made to take advantage of my FNAF hyperfixation to learn something new like character modeling and clothing. Toy Foxy posing as much as a animatronic can when their arms are fixed. My take on Balloon Boy where he's a piano maestro (WIP). You can only do so much with the usual cast of animal animatronics, and I wanted to have a bit of fun making, in all honesty, a heinous design that wouldn't be too far fetch in terms of being made in the real world. What Balloon Boy is gonna look like when he's finished and what not. The design is a based on most pianist animatronics that would have this body type for some reason.

To celebrate the Railway Series 80th anniversary, I helped organise an art collab in which over 200 artists came together to illustrate scenes from the books!

Here is a compilation of their efforts. Once again a huge thank you to all who participated. 🙂

Here's the end result of the Rosie's faces I made a while back, painted on and put on to a special mount for said faces. After some trial and error with painting the faces, I'm finally satisfied with the results!

Decided to make a new smokebox door for the fella as the smokebox botch job I did before hand was not gonna look good at all when it's fully painted. Also swapped the steam and sand dome around, surprised I missed that

After a few modification to the motor mount, it finally runs under its own power! Always a treat to watch the motions roll after fiddling with it for a while now!

Forgot another reason that this was put aside, since DCC was always on my mind for this kit I wanted to give it a can motor. The thing is, with how the drive was setup I had to make a custom mounting for both the motor and the worm. So I made it, took a bit
#ModelTrains #ModelRailroading #3DPrinting
Bowser G5 chassis with 3D printed motor mounted holding both the motor and worm gear in place. Upper casing of the motor mount is removed showing the motor and worm gear, bearings came from an Athearn drive and the shaft is from a bowser freight wheel Bowser G5 with boiler fitted with motor mount inside. The motor shaft hits the boiler a bit so that has to be cut but other than that it fit well

Currently working on a Bowser G5 locomotive kit that was on the back burner till as of recent, mostly due to some technical difficulties with one side of the valve gear. Hopefully when I get that fix I can work on making it into a Long Island Railroad G5, hopefully.

Nothing like a fresh start! This being on an old project that started in 2022 of a ALCO pacific built for the Florida East Coast Railway. At the time, the reference material I had at hand was very limited and pixelated so a redo is much needed

The difference between the scales of OO and HO as shown with two blue E2s. Got a Hornby Thomas from a sale our club was having and this in a tote, so I picked it up

#TTTE #ModelTrains
Shown here the different in terms of scale with OO and HO. The Hornby Thomas on the left being scaled in OO is slightly larger then the HO scale one on the right. Same comparison as with the first picture but at a bird's eye view Same comparison as with the first and second picture but with the two blue E2s now side by side

Recently got a Battered N scale USRA Switcher for cheap, checked the wheelbase length, and it's an exact match to a narrow gauge Baldwin 2-6-2t in HO scale! Need to do a lot of cutting to the chassis to make it fit, nothing a saw can't fix.

A 3D model of a Baldwin 2-6-2t trench locomotives which will be printed and fitted onto a N scale chassis A Baldwin 2-6-2T trench locomotive with a green livery and a very "Smudgy" face The poor ol' Bachmann USRA Switcher which definitely seen better days, fitted new gears and fixed up the valve gear. Doesn't run the greatest but with a few adjustments, I'm sure it will eventually smooth out to being a good enough runner to be a class 10 prairie!

Test fitting a print of my own design, this being a HO scale Avonside 0-4-0st. It sorta fits onto the chassis, course the chassis needs some heavy modifications for it to fit right.

More non-faceless locomotive posting with the S100 and A1. Those Mid Sodor stories of an American export rough riding and rude demeanor made the Gresley very untrusting of these newcomers to the island.

Also a S100 before the Thomas-ification.

Ran the S100 around with the Big Iron trailing behind on the club layout the other night. Goodness knows where it's going with that thing

Thought about making a story where the only reason for it to exist is for Gordon to call Rosie a "Yank." Something about His pride for the United Kingdom being challenge by a small American built switcher is funny to me. Here's a illustration for y'all!
