Do you have any test prints to show? There's 3 things I wish I had right now. Time, money and the ability to paint these.

[orionfield]

I don't...For two reasons. One is, the EA and E1 aren't ready yet, and two, because we have so many outstanding orders to print, and only one printer. So it would take a while to get to a point where we could make some test prints to take photos of. But, our engineers are very familiar with the printer we use, and I have no doubt that they will look exactly like the renderings, just like our previous releases.

We offer painting as a service, its pretty competitively priced, if you want one thats ready to drop onto the mechanism.

Any update on the SP boxcars that several of us ordered early 2018?  Last I heard was last September when they were "coming along".

Have you started work on the Comet II cars yet?

The B-50-15s are done in Wood and Steel, still working on the B-50-16. As soon as all 4 are done, I will send one of each to everyone who got one.

Have you started work on the Comet II cars yet?

Its in the queue, we have one project ahead of it.

Thanks for the update on the boxcars.

The Erie Builts look very nice, however, none of those pictured are correct for a NYC unit.  They were delivered with a single headlight and no radio antennas on the roof.

No, they come with clear 3D printed glass inserts.

NO pictures of ANY of your products exist?

As they say, .....A picture is worth a 1000 words...

It would take all of, what, a minute to snap a pic?

Well, last time we saw his photos they were let's say, not to the TRW standards.  Several TRW members cheerfully give some hints how to take better photos. Maybe the time has come to see the results.

Thats entirely true, Yes, I haven't been the best at taking photos of our models. It doesn't help that I'm on the other side of the country from my printer, and my business partner is too busy Printing models and packing boxes to do it either. This is not my main job, I do it to help the hobby on my free time. I have never had a customer complain about the quality of the model they received. @randgust had the pleasure of putting together an MRS-1 that I printed and posted the photos here on the Railwire. 
I wish I had more to offer but here are some sample prints that we did on our In house Form2 Printer, this is an indication of the quality of how all of our models turn out.

Wow, painting the models while still on the supports is something that never occurred to me. I’m going to try that.
