Looking good. What company is WRWX? Don’t think I’ve heard that one before.
WRWK, It's a reporting mark for Providence & Worcester. Used to be the Warwick Railroad.
No photo, but at the moment I'm reworking this car onto the NAVS model thanks to the paint kit. Just have to work on having more than three types of loads.

I have provided those prior, they are the blank white wrapped loads. Sometimes on my paper work they are marked for CGC, others they are marked for USG.

Yeah, if you have anything similar to this for a shot, that will work.
This is actually one of the photos I've used to make the wallboard loads in the previous package of Centerbeams, from my own collection of shots. This was from Atlantic Wallboard, I do believe being shipped to USG.

An update, ignore the missing textures on the wheels and drawbars/knuckles. They will have the textures once this goes into the MSTS/Trains/Trainset folder.
WRWK 318122 with unwrapped lumber.
Using the NAVS centerbeams, the way I will be able to do this, is have the shapes and textures into the main DRS_Centerbeams folder, and adjust the texture names and shapes to match unwrapped, Irving green wrap, Irving red wrap, Irving yellow wrap, Atlantic Wallboard White Wrap, etc. I'll also have the shapes and textures adjusted for the cars too with loads and empties, such as WRWK318122_LD or MT.

Giving it a go with Ericks latest Plate C boxcars. Keeping some of my older paints alive, that still hold well with the side shots. Essentially they will be in their own respective folder, and won't directly replace my older files, as most of those can simply be deleted at this point. The two ABOX's are what I have done so far on his model, the SNC and MEC boxcars are on the TS model.

Thanks!
Once you get in a rhythm, it only takes about 5 mins or so per car to produce. Of course, I am using side shots that have already been tweaked and edited. I haven't done one of these from scratch, though, I don't often see any Plate C boxcars anymore, so getting my own photos is a bit tough.
Easier than the TS car, yes, though getting things to match correctly on the TS car is very satisfying, even if it takes almost 30 minutes to an hour per car (Repainting, editing, matching the wagon and shape files, etc).
More updates on these Plate C cars, Some with final roof and end tweaks, as well as more cars added. These are all originally from the NEPS Boxcar Pack #3, the ones I felt hold up well with the side shots compared to the others that will be scrapped for good. (kind of like real life )

Geez Shawn your work has considerably changed for the better and the NAVS template really fits well. How often do you see an untagged car let alone a boxcar. If they look like crap they look prototypical and yours I'm happy to say do meet the "look like crap" criteria!!!!
