Hi !
the image is very interesting indeed !
Couldn't you change the smoke to a black one ??
The light is subtil.
The background image is not so nice.It doesn't seem real...
I mean , the 3D scenery is more realistic than the background.It is
rather the inverse in most cases...You are a jacker !!!Ah aH

The corners of the railroad may be too hard ??

For the rest, it is very good.

This morning, i have tryed to do an image but not with this success...
Congrats!
Bye

Thanks for the reply
Some helpful comments there. I agree, i think the sky/background could be changed.
One small question..... what is a jacker?

I just wanted to say "joker"...
Sorry

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GORGEOUS!!!!


I love it! The only comment is that the tops of the rails are too flat and shiny...they should have an oily/rusty texture on them, especially at the edges

Also, rails aren't rectangular in cross-section...here's an image of what a train rail should look like (ignore all the plastic garbage bolted onto it, you only want the metal core):
