Autoflood II Coal Hopper

Modeled and textured this Autoflood II coal hopper model for a Transport Fever 2 game mod. Worked on this model on-and-off for about 8 months, with a good portion of it spent researching and finding reference images. This was my first time making a proper vehicle model based off a real-life prototype, and I'm looking forward to making more. The now released mod can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3519019889
