yes, he will run on actual tracks, have a proper eye mechanism, but not a smoke mechanism, don’t want something bad to happen

Been a while! But I've finished Printing
Just need to start painting the wheels grey for the rim, and the chassis black
   

During the time I was inactive on this post, Thomas suffered a fall and the top of his cab (not roof) broke, so I had to glue it on really hard, then I got super glue on the wheel arch and I decided to just re-paint the blue, it used to be matte but now he has his Season 5 Glossy Blue
Also this is for a grade in science class

I guess 3D Printed Thomas is concerned by thinking he will get replaced, he won’t though
But as I said at the beginning of this post, I present to you all…
My Acrylic/Perspex Thomas! Following the same guides as the show did in Season 1!

Also I commissioned Smokey Joe Modeler (member of the Gauge 1 community) if he could make me the original Season 1 Thomas face, so I’m currently waiting on that! I had that face 3D printed my way but it recently got badly ruined at school so I decided to commission him because his faces are made SOOO accurate to Season 1 Standards!
