One of my favorite activities is attempting to create photorealistic pictures of 1:87 scale models. I enjoy considering what elements are missing and figuring out how to recreate them in miniature size.

m62 locomotive
I also enjoy observing vehicles and thinking of ways to make them appear even more realistic. For example, with this locomotive, one of its unique characteristics is the cool, greenish tinted glass on the windshield. To recreate this effect, I added a slightly turquoise tone to the driver's cab.
roco 1014 locomotives
In this modification, the goal was to enhance the realism of the model. This was achieved by replacing the photograph to Piko DSA 200 and painting the isolators, resulting in a more accurate representation.
The interior of the model was painted and an interior light was added, which can be digitally switched on and off using AUX 1 output.

The real locos in Zürich Hbf, with nice reflective red coating
Roco SBB re 460 with glossy finish
While modern vehicles may not have a high-gloss finish like cars, they are still typically coated with a glossy clear finish that provides a reflective surface. To verify this, I polished a Roco Taurus locomotive to replicate this.
I have my own 3D resin printer, so I use it when a part is needed or when I want to try out a solution

Based on a picture database and basic technical drawing I built the 3D model of the Ikarus E94F city bus. The model is prepared for Resin 3D printing.
thank you for your time!
