See a program I've taught myself how to use since 2019 accept an AI slop sponsor hurts. This is not a win for Blender artists. Its a slap in the face for them. Cause this puts the hard work of me and everyone else who uses Blender in danger of being used WITHOUT PERMISSION for a slop machine.

normally I wait till I am vibrating with energy and see what happens. Its how I did this in one day. I wait till I recognize that "holy shit I NEED to fucking make something" and strike on it while I still have it

#Blender #Trainz Been working on a H24-66 Fairebanks Morse model lately. Still deciding which parts i'll be modeling and which parts I'll simply draw on but its coming along well.
The multiple colors is an option built into Blender. I'm using it here to help make it easier for all the parts to be seen and not be hidden
