well, actually, it's 26+2(bumpers)

for camparation:
Gags, Habbilns, Shimms (4axle) will be 30+2
Gbgs, Gbqs, Ibbhps, Hbis (2axle) and Eas, Falls, Faccs (4axle) will be 26+2
Es (2axle) will be 22+2

the faccs you wanted to use is currently only in 31+2 version, and that's little too big, isn't it?

Yes, it's length is more look like Tadds.

Do you use 3 pixels per 1 m?

no, George does that. I just choose between available sizes [x/8 of 32] the one, which fits the vehicle size the most

Hmmmm... Obviously I have some wrong measurements... Could you post them or give link to some site? Isn't it 32 pixels maximum sprite lenth? You have 33.

Will be smaller version available?

I don't know about this specific example, but sometimes passenger cars are long because you want them to overlap - it makes the train look continuous, which most modern passenger trainsets are.

1) 32 is the max size of the vagon ingame, the sprites can be much longer, but as Krtaylor wrote, you can use it either for overlapping, OR for engines, because there will be no railcar on the front, it can be longer than usual without graphical glitches...

2) I hope so... someday

So 32 is maximum length for separate passenger and freight wagons? Meanwhile I drew one more wagon. What you think about it?

I like it, Coyote. It will look much better if you add some details. For example, add to the top of the car the loading hatches

you need to reconsider the shading, and as mentioned, it needs more details, looks like a children's toy.

however, since you got the shape incredibly realistic, I would call it a good start. You kind of remind me Singaporekid's dravings - his started exactly like yours. And his drawings are awsome, now.

what's wrong with his shading?

Wile E. Coyote i like your hopper
just 2 remarks

1) the obliques are too small as compared to the horizontal. you'd either make them taller or make the horizontal smaller.

2) in any case, the facing image is too long.

i suggest you to trying to paste them in a screenshot of TTD to see how they'll look when put on the rail, especially on a curve.

sorry for OT but what is a "oblique" and what's a "facing image"

facing for the first of four images, obliques for 2nd and 4th. sorry for a (kind of) neologism

now, what's "neologism"?

Purno: it's too contrasting, it need to bee smoother

Thanx everybody for advices! This is only unloaded wagon, and it's first version. Now back to work!
My set is comming bigger and bigger. I haven't found photos of following wagons:

Kkklms
Zkk-z
Zas-z
U-zz
Uak-zz
Ut-z
Z-vz
Ze-vz
Uas-z
Galms

If somebody has those photos, please post them.

I would expect that the supply of Serbian railway photos on the web might be somewhat thin. Maybe you can go out and take photos yourself, and post them to the tracking table?

This is problem, cause those wagons are less in use. For example, series H are officially in use, but I never saw them! I searched on web for other rail companies wagons, but didn't find them neither.

Maybe there is a Serbian railway museum somewhere that you could visit?

Yes, I certainly plan to go there, I must collect other data missing in tracking table.

Maybe this advice is useless, but: one of my main documentation sources for the Japan set are model railways. Off course, the problem is that if serbian railways are not popular maybe there are no serbian railway models...
