BTW, how are you keeping the door detail lines on the areas behind the cab? Are you adding them after painting?

Hi..

How are you guys getting your skins to look perfect?

This is what I'm getting:

Its driving me nuts! I've tried 9 times over and over, and I still get the same results! The ACE files are NOT switched. I repeat, they are NOT switched.

Could someone PLEASE help me out?

[HAC]

was going to see if I could get it at work (I work for CP, been there 29 years ) If you want to email it to, its hac@home.com
I'd post the skin, but I think I should check with public relations first, wouldn't want to get into any trouble at work..

cheers

I'm doing the same thing. maybe we should colaborate on making an all canadian train. This skin is still in the early stages. i.e. the number is for an AC4400 and the front number boards are in the wrong place, but I just started last night. I also want to do some 3d work so there is a lot to do, so I would like to work with some other people.

sounds good to me... I'm currently working at Pantone matching the CP color, and the skin contiunes to evolve.. I'll also verify my road unit numbering. Love to work with you on this.
I also want to do some COSCO and CP Intermodal containers, as well as some more Canadian grain cars, including the Alberta
heritage and Sask Wheat Pool cars.. Possibly Sultran and Canpotex
unit trains as well.. I'd like to build up a fleet of several CP locos to use in varied consists.. I figure that the Dash-9 is close enough to an AC4400 to do for now.. I'll UL my CP skin and mods when I'm happy with it... email me and we can get moving on this... FYI I'm in Calgary....
