    I'm back again. Took a day off as I was in absolutely no mood to do any 3D modelling yesterday. The Class 89 is nearly complete.

    The following details are still pending:-
    - Lower body side detail, I think these are bogie mounts that link the bogies to the body. Could be wrong.
    - Pantograph area. I've decided to make arrangements for Hornby pantographs as Hornby seem to be the only company selling spares in some form or the other. Also Hornby's pantographs all have the same insulator footprint. Our very own pantograph kits match Hornby ones as well.
    - Cab interior. I have a drawing and a few pics. But still sitting on the fence about it.
    - Underframe, just got a few more minor details to add.
     

     

     

     

     

     
    Hope you guys are like it. A huge shout out to @jukebox, @Pete the Elaner and @innocentman for all their help and assistance.
     
    Cheers!

    A Monday and Tuesday well spent. Not accurate, but all we've had access to is a very bad quality scale drawing that has errors in it. But hopefully it will be better than the kit currently available. And maybe, just maybe...this might result in one of the mainstream manufacturers doing it once we've finished the CAD.
     

     
    Cheers!

    Hey!
     
    It's another hour or so put into the Class 89. Some finer details added. The body is almost done. Just looking out for detailed images of the roof and pantograph well. If anyone can help with those, I'd really appreciate it.
     

     

     
    I've received quite a few PMs about it both online and offline. Thanks for all your kind words and support.
     
    Cheers

    Done for the day...happy with the progress. I'll get on with the pantograph well tomorrow.
     

     
    Any feedback is much appreciated. I'm looking to make it better and as close as possible to the level of detail achieved by RTR models. If the CAD images interest you and if you want it in kit form, drop me a PM and I'll selling this as a kit.
     
    Cheers
