Hi everyone, here is a Soviet Steam Locomotive SO-17 made for the unofficial Chapter "Bloody Fall" of Post Scriptum.
It started out as a personal project, but they became interested on it and I finished it for them.
Around 150k poly for all and baked in Marmoset Toolbag 4.
I tried from the beginning to respect an old Guideline of train simulator for the polycount in order to stay game ready.

I also took some references and tried to make my own, but the most realistic and closest to my references.
It was quite challenging since all the references for all the little pieces are pretty hard to find so I took good 3D references too.
It was a good experience to learn more about Udim's workflow and deepen my knowledge about UE4 and Substance Painter.
The rocky ground comes from Megascans and the foliage from a free Unreal Engine pack.
I hope you like it!
