Where's my mind at?
After over 2 years of modeling, you can tell that I love modeling trains, and I enjoy all things railroading. However, I also enjoy many other topics and industries that exist in our world. The allure for me about railroading is the industriousness of it, partially why I enjoy freight so much more than passenger. Railroading isn't the only industrious thing I like to look at, or read into, and they can't exist without what feeds them. Construction, oil, farming, consumer products, ect, they build and determine what a railroad does to operate, without this supply, we wouldn't have millions of miles of track around the world.
Industries, more specifically non-consumer industries like Construction and oil, have peaked my interest for a while, construction being an interest my whole life. Garry's Mod maps have a lack of props centered around filler props like you would see in everyday life (depending), like cranes, excavators, and various containers.
I have noticed a desire for certain railroad maps to fill their scenes with more things previously discussed, and a desire to model these things I enjoy so much, is something I have in plentiful amount.
(For now)I will be shifting my focus from railroading to "General Industry", and most models coming from me wont be able to be interacted with like my trains. These will be props used in the background of maps, and maybe the foreground, a foreground to any scene, especially railroad related, is always accompanied by an interesting background, and in Gmod, we tend to focus too hard on the central object and forget what's around in the world.
(Gosh, I talk too much and ramble on for so long, don't I? My English teachers would be disappointed, heh.)
I hope you enjoy my move and shift in focus, as I do.
