I found it, thanks!
I'm fixing a lot of things like the tracks at the bottom, some are square and some are rounded. The vertical lines, none are even, so I'm fixing those, the circles are oblong, the "H" in the middle isn't a symmetrical and the curves on the top left/right aren't the same. I'll post it up when I'm done fixing it.

Got my train cut out tonight, here is my modified file
Image


Played with a bottles of patinas and i wasn't having much luck. Didn't do anything I wanted it to do. Will have to read up on it and test some more stuff. I wanted this to be more of a copper color with a splash of blue. Maybe polish it?

That is really neat! Maybe adding the child's birth year would be kind of cool too?

Looks great, i have a few patinas from steelfx. Clean the metal really well, any residue will create an issue.

I think that was my issue so I going to get a sanding disc that isn't so abrasive and try that.
