Aurora from the PC game Metro Exodus

So far finished except for the railing. I'm using spare parts from a broken railroad car, I've already used a few parts. If I ever build another locomotive, I'll use the windows from this wagon...

Considering this is basically a flat model, if one were to make 3 or 4 copies of it, and cut out panels, doubling and tripling some, this could be superbly detailed. The wheels "greebled" out would be the first place to start. Of course, by the time you're done, you will have a very different model, and it will really "pop". ;)
 
“temporary” end. If I think of a few improvements, I'll post them.

Great Greebling start, it will be hard to stop. The wheels and drive bars shout out to me. ;)

Thanks for the great comments and yes, it was fun, I always like to try something new.
Zathros you're right, they catch my eye too. I could make the wheels thicker at the back and the drive bars...I'll have to think about that. I would also have liked to do something to the boiler...let's see what time brings. ;)
