Hello again, guys :D
It's been 2 rough weeks due to the studies, but here is some progress in the NS-93 :)
First: the basic shape of the interior is finished, with the cab door and the Metro Map :D

This week I also finished the seats, which they are of 3 different types:

SketchUp is known for the large amount of polygons compared to other 3D programs like 3DSMax and Blender. Those handles next to the door are real killers in SketchUp.
I forgot about this little detail :oops:
The handles next to the doors are 24-sided cylinders, which is embarrassing :oops:
The handles in the seats are now 8-sided cylinders, which is much better imo, and with smoothing there is no visual difference whatsoever :D

Next up are the various handles across the carriages, and the cabin.
The cabin is the most difficult part, as there is not much information about this (Santiago Metro is VERY strict about sharing information, and a lot of things are confidential). The most ironic thing is, there are a lot of photos about the cabin :D , so is not an impossible task :P

I will finish and send the NS-93 first, and then I could start the different variants.

That's all for now :D
Merry Christmas, everyone ;)

Hello again, guys :D
Finally the semester is over, and now I have time to do 3d modelling again :lol:
After these weeks I started the UT-440R interior. The NS-93, at the moment, is paused while I search some accurate info about the cab.
Here are some screenshots:
First, the basic interior shape.
Image
Between the doors and the interior, there is a little step with some lights that turn on the the doors are open.
Image
After that, some detailing on the roof. Over the beam and in the luggage shelfs there are lights too. The cilinders in the beam are speakers.
Image
And now, the most difficult part was the seats.
Image
Image
The interior only needs some small details, like the fire extinguisher, the handles and some buttons and is finished.
Then I will proceed to build the cab and the bogueys and the model will be completed.

That's all for now, have a nice week :D

Don't forget to keep an eye out on the amount of polygons used

This is still going, but I'm focusing on my studies right now.
This project will NOT be cancelled :D

This project (Santiago NS-93 / Paris MP89) is being revived....
Supertrain_fan hasn't continued the project after the screenshots of december 2018, but he has recently send me the files and gave me permission to finish it.

The model did not have a driver cab interior yet, so I have started there;

I am planning 2 variants: the Santiago NS-93 and Paris MP89CC. ;)
