Spent the time and did a full render of this little animation of Puffing Billy. It's no Pixar but I am very proud of it.

Yes I know the camera clips the axles. No I won't rerender, it took 4 hours.

Did another one of those outline things, this time of Lancashire Witch.

This is by far the most complex animation I have done, and fortunately I think locomotives get simpler from this point.

Please enjoy this looping tour of Puffing Billy, in its 8 wheeled form.

You: I wish I had a looping animation of Puffing Billy to stare at

This really Puffs my Billy. Animating this was a real pain.

Hey all, weekly post reminding you all of a project I am undertaking to make a bunch of 3D models of early railway vehicles.

Would be great if we can get that member count up, then I can justify doing even more!

The 8 Wheeled version of Puffing Billy is probably my favourite cursed early locomotive design.

Blenkinsop locomotive animation, now looped for your enjoyment.

Test render and animation of Blenkinsop locomotive. Details not final, and the animation has some oddities (wheels glitch out a bit)

Sorry it's low quality, took an hour to render at 20% scale.

New model being produced for Project Century, this is a Blenkinsop rack loco of 1812.

I'm unsure how to do the gear and rack in game, so my make an alternative version of this as an adhesion worked 6 wheeled design, purely for gameplay purposes, utilising the side gear as part of the motion.

Project Century is well underway, now with 3 models having been made for the mod for a game that isn't out yet.

Consider becoming a Patron member, please. You won't regret it, probably.

3D Model of what is often referred to as Richard Trevithick's Coalbrookdale Locomotive. This this the first locomotive? Did it even run? Maybe.

Regardless, here's a model of it.

Here's a little bit of it.
