Brickshelf: Santa Fe FP45

[Hobbes]

I just stumbled upon this very nice MOC of a Santa Fe FP45 locomotive (pic = link):

What I like is that it's 6wide, doesn't use all too much tricky SNOT-or-other-technique, and yet is recognizable. It's almost a model LEGO could have done.

There's also some GP-like-model in the gallery (I'm not firm with the numbers or models, maybe it's even an SD-xx), also in 6wide and also pretty "straight-forward".

Models like these give me hope that I can come up with a similar MOC, cos I've been pondering ideas of the BNSF in SF colors but haven't built it yet (and it's not even a real MOC but merely an official LEGO-model in different colors).

Very nice models *y*

Very nice! And I love his vignette. *sweet*
