Slight digression, but what CAD software do you use?
Prodesktop. Long off sale and by in large not available anymore. I've had it for literally years having got a copy when I was in school (which was a long time ago). If it ain't broke, why fix it!

They look great. Are they filament or resin printed? Rik They're all Filament printed which means a element of sanding involved. Speaking of Sanding....... https://i.ibb.co/jzTnPRv/9310b8a9-abcd-4617-b73c-6e8b6751b142.jpg Both 33s and the 141 were fully finished off for the GMES Gala at the beginni...

Re: Gauge One Rolling Stock in 1:32 scale

Four more coaches have gone though the paint shop. The 3rd of 6 pullmans (the other 3 will follow when the next 5 are completed) and the GWR Suburban Set in BR Crimson. Now ready for a new arrival later this week! I'm gonna need a metric boat load of decals at this rate! https://i.ibb.co/KLgVg2m/1ff...

Re: Gauge One Rolling Stock in 1:32 scale

Not a lot has happened stock wise. I've built some new Irish stock to run with my new 141 and 611 but that's been about it for anything of note. The new irish coaches being Great Southern Railway of Ireland stock along with a CIE Steam Heat Van (appropriately since irish diesels can't provide steam ...

Those are looking very good! The Pullmans will look great behind your Schools... Your unpainted Hawksworth carriages really emphasise how modern they were - I guess they were one of the predecessors of the BR Mk 1, but with the long windows and rounded ends there a distinctly Mk 2 look going on... ...

I've had intermittent issues with prints not sticking. But I've upped the print bed to 65C and it stays there all print. Now I have hell getting the things off at times rather than keeping them on!
