Planet the Locomotive - NGC style


Well this is a 3d model of a steam locomotive named Planet which was used in The Liverpool and Manchester Railway in 1830s. It was an early locomotive which was manufacture by Robert Stephenson and Company in 1830. It was used mostly for goods trains. I have used Autodesk Maya and used polygon modeling. I tried to give it a look of 3d models created for the National Geographic Channel's well known shows like Seconds from Disaster and Big Bigger Biggest etc. For this I have used toon outlines in Maya which is very easy to use and dont need any expertise. I will write the tutorial for this kind of shading soon.
