Nice to see you and your work again, Erik!

This is how I enjoy the hobby, your replies are always appreciated, those who don’t understandably could give two *&%$ about it. Too each his own and NO, these are not “AI” In most cases I make the models in this case it’s a brass import from Korea, I weather them, paint them, and build the modules and photo them and photo the steam on a real 1:1 steam locomotive and use my skills with a variety of digital illustration software programs I use with “digital illustration” techniques to create the final image. This is not some BS spit out of Canva, or CoPilot or whatever AI hate campaign that’s being sanctioned through Meta these days. I made this. OK!

OK!
Great photography and the modules you pose the trains on are fantastically realistic also.

Terrific photo and model, Erik!

Beautiful photo!
