Where was this painting... painted??

[joeholmes]

Was in Reading today and I came across this painting by a student at a market!!, does anyone have a clue where it was painted!!

Is quite large and only cost me £5.99 which is a bargin... (and look its FGW HST :P)

Any Ideas??

Likely to have been painted at a school if it was painted by a student.........

It isn't the right colour, the headclusters are all wrong...

Any good at art TC? Ever tried painting a fGW HST?

I can do a computer-based render model. . That's still Art, ya know.

 

[joeholmes]

I'm not, I'm constructively criticising, hehe.

And i was backing the student up. I would like to see TCs version of a non-computer generated fGW HST

What program would you use?

 

[Tom]

Prodesktop, lol... then I can annoy my teachers.

Or GMAX perhaps...

Why is everyone being so critical over this pic ? It's good to see younger people taking an interest in the railway even if it's just a small amount. So what if it doesn't have the right lights or it's the wrong shade :?

I'm starting to get the hang of Prodesktop although I haven't figured out away to stick Pictures on to the Model (I have textured it in the default materials, glass, wood etc.).

You want to make a decal. Get yer image, save one .bmp, save an inverted one and save another .bmp

Very true, it's actually a tough thing to draw or paint. I've tried. I believe heart-of-wessex and maybe Sprinter have seen my feeble attempts to draw in pen a HST. Quite simply my attempts are pathetic.

Big up the chap who painted that painting. Tough to tell where's it set at from looking at it, but is that at all important? Not a bad attempt at all really!

I too would like to see TC attempt the same thing by hand, not with the use of fancy computing software.
