    Default Toy train

    I copied the toy train from todays Xara Xone tutorial.

    I agree with Gary, cool!
    Reminds me of a transparent colored plastic toy. The one that comes to mind is a ray guy that shoots sparks when you pull the trigger. Does your toy train shoot spark out of the smoke stack when you push it?

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Yes, I am a sucker for modern materials and bright colors.

    Good job, Mike

    It looks like a stylized pencil holder or somesuch. Cool look!

    I also tried to mimic Anas' wooden train...

    ...but am tempted to perhaps try something extra-colorful. (time willing)

    Peace

    Thumbs up Re: Toy train

    Nice job James. Congrats on taming the blender beast.
    Just for the fun of it I'm thinking about adding some cars, maybe a caboose. What good is a train without something to pull behind it.

    Great work Mike. I seem to remember wooden toy trains very similar to your work, especially the way they connect together.
