Miami Dash-8 Reskins

[ZekTheKid]

Hi I'm wondering if any repainter would be interested in this:

UP C40-8W.jpg

Off of the Miami dash-8 with auto numbering.Thanks for considering.

Have any of you ever thought about asking for one thing at a time?

[FoodMonsterGuy]

An NS C40-8W has been done by Eyein12. It's $15. Besides the Miami would be unrealistic due to the nose lights.

Your right.I just checked his site.There's the C40-8W pack with the NS engine.I'll look into it.

It's a good model worth buying. I really hope a UP skin on the Miami D8 comes out!

I took a look at the dash-8,but it's all over the place.The doors are a separate texture (what!?!?),the nose and the side are also separate textures(WHAT!?!?!?).The CSX logo is a modified one from the RSC CSX GEVO pack (WHY!?!?!).

So it is harder for anyone to repaint, even for experts.

[buzz456]

No it's because the modeler was too lazy to take the time to do it right when they unpacked it. Why would anyone make it hard to repaint when if you made it easy more people would do repaints causing more people to buy the original to use the repaint that they wanted.

I have repaint this beauty into CNW, and yes...it was hard...maybe I should lay my hands on it and do a UP version because I know how to reskin this. Only thing I've never got to work is changing the numbers...but I can ask Buzz again to edit them all for me to UP numbers. If you want that I reskin this engine, feel free to give a request to me

Buzz can change the numbers for my bestest German friend.

The Miami Dash8 is one of the WORST models they've ever released. Both for repainting and the model itself. I would definitely recommend Ian's dash 8 pack for the NS one, then for others repaints could be done on the one from his Seattle route

Few things like the fact it does not even have a traction motor, and very unprototypical and screw ups in paint. I personally never drive it because it is so wrong.

[buzz456]

I wonder how it moves if it doesn't have any traction motors.

[Chacal]

It has propulsion motors.
Easier to drive but doesn't handle so well in snow.
