Hello, everybody!
It¡¯s been a whole lot of time since the last time we¡¯ve
added something new to EP Cars! Almost 3 (three) years,
to be more precise! During this time, we¡¯ve been busy with
other projects, and we¡¯ve kinda neglected this site.
After we¡¯ve changed our hosting provider, about four
months ago, we¡¯ve made some rather subtle (but
nonetheless useful) modifications to the site layout and
functionality. We will continue to improve EP cars more, in
the coming weeks.
Apart from the very long delay since the last content
update :-), we¡¯ve got a couple of premieres today:
- The former is that we¡¯ve added a... subway or metro
(¡¯tube¡¯, for British people) model. Having a very modern,
yet quite simple design, the Bombardier MOVIA
346 has been specifically designed for the
Bucharest
metro (the capital city of Romania).It has been put in
service starting 2004, gradually replacing the previous,
communist-era Astra metro trains. And, as of now, over
90% of the trains that run in the Bucharest metro are
MOVIA 346!
We¡¯ve included some textual
building aids, near the model parts. However, we will be adding an easier to
understand, image-based aid in the near future, to help you build. By the way, the model has a "floor space" (an empty space under the floor), where you
can put some coins or something else to weigh it down a
bit. The model
is designed to have transparent windows. To simulate
glass, you can
cut two long but narrow rectangles (one for each side), that
run along
the sides of the train, and are fixed into position with the
doors (we
have inner and outer door sides, for each door!)
- The latter premiere is that we¡¯re now using Photoshop
to design the photorealistic car models. (Until three years
ago, these models were made under Paint Shop Pro
v4, and later, v7) So, the 2005
Bentley Flying
Spur is the first model to be made this way. As
well
as that, we¡¯ve paid more attention to quality, clarity and
details than ever before. But this model is as simple to
build as any previous one. Check it out! ;-)
Finally, as a bonus, we¡¯ve updated three of the vector-
based
models. That is, the Neoplan Centroliner, the
MAN
SL
busses, and the MAN
Lion¡¯s Star luxury coach. Now, they are
much larger than before, and you can print at a good
quality, in a
larger scale than before.
