Union Pacific V8

Description
Based on a present-day iteration of the famous Union Pacific livery. This one has a picture of the Star-Spangled Banner blowing in the breeze and the slogan 'Building America' on each side of the locomotive. As far as I know, not all locomotive types operated by Union Pacific carry this livery, but these are the ones that do:

EMD DDA40X
EMD SD59MX
EMD SD70ACe and SD70ACe-T4
EMD SD70AH and SD70AH-T4
General Electric AC4400CW and AC4400CWM
General Electric AC4460CW
General Electric ES44AC
General Electric ET44AH

Only one DDA40X carries this livery, and that is No. 6936. This engine is notable for the fact that she is still in service with Union Pacific, despite the rest of her class being retired in the 1980's. 6936 is part of UP's heritage fleet, just like FEF-3 class No. 844 and Big Boy 4014.

But, I will remind them of the phrase 'practice makes perfect'.

I've been trying to avoid saying anything bad about Unthinkable because I don't want to start a massive fight.

Better models come out on top, that's just the way it goes. I prefer a textured model over one with a simple repaint any day. There's nothing "petty" about this at all and he shouldn't have to apologize for anything. This is a community that works together and there's no room for being butthurt or jealous over the attention of another persons model, especially after you challenged us with the "sense you can't make one" remark. Not a good play on your part, bud. Later on down the road when you become a master at texturing rail vehicles and do a better job than this one, they hey, maybe I'll swing through and subscribe to it.

Now, onto the model itself. Trainspotter, great work. This looks awesome.

I am just sad now. I made a U.P. V8 livery already, but of course somebody had to make a new one. I am just sad, because just on the first day of the release it gets 39 subs. I am worried this new version will get more subs than mine, because I generally am proud of mine. There have been literally no different versions of already made liveries, but of course just because mine was bad means that another had to be created entirely. I honestly think this is just plain petty, because a U.P. V8 livery has already been made, so making a new one is just ridiculous. I am not overreacting, but I am mad that a copy of one of my first ever liveries has been made. Even Franks says this is brilliant. I don't even get any reference. Sad.
