Hello! Today I would like to present my 2-bay hopper car built in 1:38 scale (10-wide). This is my first time photographing using a lighting tent, so I apologize if my photography skills aren't perfect, as I'm still getting used to this. The decals are from Brick Model Railroader.

Seriously good work on this. Lots of details and functionality. The stickers cap it off.

Thank you! I should mention that the decals are from Brick Model Railroader. They're actually a bit undersized for my hopper car, since they're designed for 8-wides which are about O scale (1:48). I did the best I could to spread them out though.

Stunning work! Pretty big, at 10 studs wide, but full of detail and excellent shaping. Well done! Can it function correctly? If you were to fill it up with 1x1 round plates (or any other granular material), would it be able to empty?

Absolutely! Here's a video demonstration.
