Dave is throwing some SASS around.
I love dropping lore and not explaining any of it. Make of it what you will. He sure does have some spooky eyes.

CP Huntington Lady! I thought that considering that she's from the States#an American basis would suit Lady a little bit more...#Is this the American version of the folkloric figure#or the real Lady?#up to you but i think i like this design too much to NOT draw it again

"The Arrival of Doom."
I had this idea to remake one of my old pics I did for Tonya Song back in 2020:
It turned into one of my new fave landscape pics.

What's that American 4-4-0 steamer with the big feckhin funnel that's like iconic for the Wild West era?
you will not BELIEVE the name that these have.
they're literally just called "Americans". I'm not fucking with you.
And the big fuckoff funnel also has a name, that's a spark arrestor, for stopping sparks from coming out as most of these from the wild west period ran on wood, which made sparks, in turn that does not mix well with a desert.

I may or may not be compiling a chronological list of nearly every locomotive ever directly because of starlight express
#I’ve got down 103 locos so far#this was born out of frustration of not being able to find a chronological list of electric trains#bc visually Electra looks most like the SNCF CC40100#like their helmet n shit#which makes sense because they’re quad voltage and not ac or dc (like in the song) and also incooperated several different#innovations in electric locomotives#but it also doesn’t make any sense. bc the cc 40100 was like from the 60s and Electra is the engine of the future and everything#so I wanted to look at what electic locos were made in the 80s for autism purposes#anyways. I did land on one- there are two prototypes made in the 80s based on the cc 40100#which is the SNCF BB 20011 and the SNCF BB 20012#which have the same visual design as the cc 40100 and when you look up pictures of em have lightning bolts on the side#and they’re prototypes which I like to imagine Electra is#and they’re only dual voltage not quad voltage but Electra’s like ac dc it’s okay by me so it still fits#admittedly they weren’t really prototyping anything exciting and I would’ve preferred an american engine as opposed to a french one but#beggars can’t be choosers.#if you can’t tell by now this entire post was an excuse to infodump about trains#so I am going to tag the stex fandom. to make my train autism everyone else’s problem#idk if the tag will even register I once read that only the first seven tags actually make any effect on the tagging system but who caressss#stex#the story of the locomotive who raced against a horse and lost and the locomotive that was powered by a horse shall wait till another day.

Working on this slowly
I've never played but how can you not love that little train. This interpretation is inspired by the likes of Ivor the Engine and Furness Railway #20.
I've been chipping away at this on and off over the last two months. No idea when I'll finish.
