Hey!
So for a while now I've been wanting to do an outdoor scene, and with all the work being done on lighting and foliage around here as of late, I figured it was about time!

My dad is an avid steam train guy and although I'm not nearly as knowledgeable on them, he has passed on a bit of that love of steam to me! We often went up to the severn valley railway as well as me watching him make his model railways over the years. I thought it would be nice to create a little scene based around the Great Western locomotives as those are his favourite and hopefully let him have a little fly around.. if he doesn't get frustrated at a mouse and keyboard / controller again..

For anyone interested in the Locomotives here are some awesome links to check out (If i find anything else cool I'll add to the list):

So right now I'm just doing a lot of tests and setting up foliage and lighting based of Alexander's latest work (thanks for your breakdowns! you are awesome! D) as well as setting up some basic blueprints to make life easier when doing the blockouts.
