nice .. you might like this vid... trust me -
I draw for my printer, i know its tolarances, failure points, etc.. i think with right design, drawing, and printer, you can get a very reasonable result. But some many people come to me with big miss understanding of 3d printers, mainly not wanting to wait 24hrs + for it to fininsh (if you know this you plan for it and dont do 24hr test prints etc.. ) and the other one is i work in a achitectual company and people think they can scale down a 1:1 building and go print.. and don't like it when i say nope you need to redraw it for the printer.. (what works in water colours wont allwasy work in oils) its a different medium.. and i also like you lot see loads of badly drawn (usually incorrect proportios, or just not quite right) 3d models.. but i aslo see some WOW thats well drawn, CAD is a skill thats why we get paid ..

and its good to twist perspective and have a hill climbing up away from railway line into a town/village . so crap drawing time.. say road infront of shops climed (right to lef) up toward the town square (in that station road way) that would have been promant in the town and usually higher ground. but best thing to remeber is that more than likley the town was there before the railway in some way at least in part. so land and alignment wont allways respect the rail line what are the two buildings on the left (a school, vilage hall church? ) can re draw it better if complx
