Looks awesome! Which SD45 is this based off of?

I believe it to be the UP one.

No nose lights so definitely not SP and no high hood like the other NW, NS, and SRR ones so one left, UP.

The lights are extremely small on the original, so I'm modeling a child object for better lights.

Also, I still have to finish the frame colors.

Well, I believe I may be nearing the end. Here is what I got:

Also, my headlight will be an optional choice. If you want it, you can choose to install it or not.

Cool, can you do really really heavy weathered one too to make it more realistic? Thanks,

That looks pretty darn good as is! But I agree, some good road grime will really put it on another level!

Well, here it is. I admit that I am bad at weathering these. I really don't know why but I can't get the dust and dirt to look good on them. I tried, here is what came out.

Then here is the clean one. Only two out of seven are weathered, the rest are clean.

Looking good.
Some day you will have to tell us how do you set a random function to use clean vs dirty locos in a train or scenario. Are you doing something in the dcsv?
