still alive

I’m still alive! Let’s keep this blog going… recently I made a digital painting (mockup) of the CK Holliday cab. Of course, it’s based on the drawing in the plan book (page B50 if you have it and want to follow along).

For one thing though, I really like the look of the Holliday cab with a natural ash wood look, rather than the bright green in the interior. It looks like it belongs in the 1850’s, and the combination of black, bright brass, and natural wood is just so elegant and… well… manly!

Here’s a closeup of the gauge. 0psi… nothing exciting.

Do you like the cab with or without the pipe wraps?

  1. Are the pipe wraps original and/or currently there? Seems like most wraps turn dirty and dingy pretty quick. I like to see reality most of the time, but the matte black renders well 🙂 Keep up the great work!
