Here's a train picture. Got inspired by those HUGE old locs which look like something from hell. This is the biggest passenger loc ever to exist (I think); Union Pacific's Challenger.
(Now you know.

)
Hope you like.

Note: Pic has been changed since first post. Please refresh.

like this a lot, especially the style.
looks oil painted.

reminded me of mon�t's picture of a train for a second.

Looks cool. I would work on the blurriness a bit. And make the snow more prominent. As well as adding a bit to the lighting. Nice work. Keep it up.

Thanks so far.

I guess I got a bit blind on it after working on it some hours non stop. Woke up and discovered a few things in need of touch up.

So. I've done some minor changes; please refresh if you have to.

Some replies:

faustgfx: (Sigh) If you don't like it; fine, I don't care, but I'd be happy to know why (if it's only the blurry thing; I want it blurry, so that!).

Dryfire: Thanks. I wanted it to have a slight "oily" look, and to go hard on the train only I guess would split the pic in two stylewise (hard vs. soft). As for the green man.... hehe, I know, it was something I did without knowing really why. He's back to normal now.
Nex: Thanks. Just what I wanted!

Ian: I've sharpened up places slightly, but as mentioned I wanted that look. Getting some atmosphere without huge amounts of details. And, erm, it's supposed to be rain (light showers)....

More crits would be nice.
Thanks so far!

Wow. Heres something you dont see every day. I really do like the style. Kind of gets you that almost horror-movie like.
Some things that need changes:
Some persons are "melting" into the the train.
And the Light on the train doesnt look like its in the front of the train but on the left side of it.

I like it a lot... I think the bluriness gives a nice atmosphere. Early morning feeling.....
