    Great rendering of the train as an MPC BJB. It gets tough to remember what each Forum member uses for their project development, so would you mind sharing what software you used before the import to get that great depth and modeling? I'm always looking for what will help me do the best work possible. Thanks

    Thanks for the train pattern. My son collects & builds trains. I am supposed to build a case for his Z scale train with train patterns on top.

    Bruce, I use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop most of the time and ShaderMap Pro to get a 3d look.

    Many thanks for that BJB,
    Some interesting points I've yet to learn.

    Can this be done with "Elements" or do you need full load "Photoshop"?

    I use the CS4 program, but I have a very old Elements program, it worked OK. A few less options - the controls are different.
