And with the second rebound, I think I'm on the right track (no pun intended). Cleaned up a lot of lines and simplified things since the last iteration. I really dig this one.
Need to work on the lights, the window shield, and the top a bit—any suggestions are much appreciated—but otherwise, I'm stoked with this pass :D.
I agree with @Erica - definitely my fave so far. Based on the image linked in the first go 'round it seems like the nose of the train could appear more ... pointy(?)
Great work man. I was actually doing something like this a few days ago. With a couple more details and some more shading I think you will have a fantastic icon on your hands!
And another rebound to focus on some of the shading and textures. I think one more pass will do it to fix up the nose and the lights (which are pretty much untouched in this round).
Hmm, compared to your final rebound, this does look more like the Baby Bullet. All versions look smashing, but this one feels closer in style to an actual Caltrain train (if that was your intention).

Amazing, sir.
More? windshield wipers? train number? shiny metal bits?

The silhouette in the window helps add a bit of dimension in just the right spot. Props!

My favorite is the first one Mark. I wonder how it would look with the silhouette inside!

Right on, thanks for the feedback everyone. Definitely need to work on the details and more realistic shading. Will rebound when I have something!
