Pennsy K4 Pacific - Version 2by *markkarvon

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Other

This is the version I will use for prints. The background is a little risky as it foreshortens the depth of the piece but I did it anyway. There are lots of photos like this of locomotives posed next to a building for it's portrait. The building was usually a shop building of some type and the locomotive was usually just emerging after maintenance and a new coat of paint.

K4!!!!

The background looks familiar, can't quite put my finger on it though.

Thanks. The background is mostly made-up. The building just represents a common type of shop or factory building one might find on or near any railroad. Red brick, multi-paned windows and big black water towers are pretty common in industrial areas.

Back shop? [link]

I am familiar with that old Southern structure and have been to that museum several times but it is not the reference I used for this piece. I basically just made up a building which was meant to resemble the look of the average backshop type building. They all seem to have a very similar look.
