I really doubt anything is "too recent" at this point in time for TF2...

that's a terrible excuse, but this train doesn't look too out of place

If there's a map with a giant monkey throwing barrels at you i don't think this is that recent.

yeah but that's custom and not meant to be current... this is (I would assume) to be used in a serious map so it has to fit with the TF2 theme.

I like it, and I have no problem with the curves. My main problem is that the whole carriage just seems to be one block, it doesn't have a roof or anything, that's why it looks weird.

The engine is one thing, this is something that will end up getting tiled about 4 times behind it. So the amount of detail I can put into is quite a bit lower than what I could do with the GE.

All I'm saying is it's a pretty invalid argument to claim something doesn't fit the era after valve has (repeatedly, I might add) trashed the time zone (battle axes, brainslugs, etc) and if you're saying something that is minorly outside of the timezone (and most passenger carts from the 1950s were also very similar in their designs anyways).

The grate is still kinda fucked, gonna work on that more.

dunno how big a fan I am of how this skin is turning out!

Looks nice. When are you going to texture it?

Honestly it looks like a paint over of a render. It needs color.
