About my graphics experience and Japan

[116th_Street_Bound]

Pleased to be acquainted!

I've been tooling around with SCURK in Sim City 2000 since I was about 7, so I have a quite a bit of experience with these kinds of graphics.

And unfortunately no, my experience with Tokyo lasted all of one week...one week that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I'm really an aficionado of commuter MUs like 205, 103, 113 series, so I would be willing to draw for Japan set when i'm not swamped with schoolwork. I think a rendition of the Imperial Train in TT would be very nice as well, with a shiny brown EF58 with the Hinomarus on the front.

Mr. Doug Coster, the owner and operator, aside from selling a ton of high-quality N-scale Japan railways stuff, has graphics of almost all of the trains there. It is really interesting how almost every passenger service is MU, the Japanese have even started running a freight EMU!

Aside from Japanese railways, I have more-than-working knowledge of the Chinese and Russian rail systems as well, in case an eastern-bloc graphics set is on the horizon.

Once again, pleased to be aboard!

There is already a project to make a Japanese trainset which is fairly well along, but there is still some stuff needing to be drawn. The thread for the set is here, although it's rather long:

You'll probably want to go more towards the end.

Here's a tracking table showing what will be in the set, and what's been drawn:

We'd love to have your help!
