Posted: Sat Feb 26, 2022 12:09 pmWould you be happy with one using the DTM SD45 or what would you like?
Re: DRG&W SD-45
Posted: Sat Feb 26, 2022 2:53 pmI did these back in 2015. I don't remember why I didn't upload them. Looks like the trucks need to be black.

Posted: Mon Feb 28, 2022 10:52 amWell, my 63 year old eye agree! I believe I was trying to correct that. I didn't post the correct image. This one is better (with the original on the right).

The MRL unit is an SD45-2. Not sure if they are the same as the SD45. There should be some dark trucks on one that I have. I'll see what I can find.

Posted: Mon Mar 14, 2022 10:50 pmOK, I finally remembered where this came from. Back in 2013 Marleyman put out an SD45 "Baker's Dozen" re-skin pack.

I have sent a message asking if I can modify it and upload it here, as requested in his re-skin documents.

I do not know the "in's and out's" of these reskins, but do you think that this could be applied to the SP version of the unit? Although not a "spot on" model, I believe that the SP version is a closer version, with the plow, lower horn and gyra-light. I would love to see this, heavily weathered and with both the large and small "Rio Grande" herald. Just a thought?
Best Regards,
Galen

Posted: Fri Mar 25, 2022 7:24 pmGalen, it should be fairly easy to do, if I can remember how! I'll finish up the UP version first though.
I updated several textures. Every picture I had showed lots of dust under the dynamic brake grille.
And I just noticed the plow is orange in all my reference photos. I'll change that.
