This is amazing! I took a 2 year class for blender and cant even do this level of detail. Absolutely amazing!!!!! Your models are so good and the animation was flawless!
Man, that sound design is amazing, I could listen for hours~ the visuals were incredibly well done, you really get a sense of weight, even with the explosions!
OMG this is amazing!!! From modeling to animation to sound to camera angles, this deserves an award no doubt. I cant express how excellent everything was.
@@ThePeanuteee fun fact, that whistle isnt from the polar express originally, its from the back to the future part 3 train, if ya dont believe me, google a clip and compare
The flying Scotsman has a bell and an American whistle for its USA tour so it’s not too far off I’m not sure if Scotsman’s American whistle sounded like this but it did have one
@@billfernald all the scripting, camera shots, sound designing, train model (if you made it) that character animation? did you do it all in just 3 days ????
i am not one to usually get scared of horror movies and something about the sound design and only one person being in the train frightened me to my core. it's like the mechanics of the train and the rails where the monster knowing that it would destroy itself in pleasure to take the life of the only passenger. extremely good job landon!
Apart from the great animation, I think the best part of this is setting up the plot as an excuse to animate the crash of a train. You don’t need to know where the guy came from or why nobody else is on the train. It’s just the simple circumstances of the scene that lets the train crash make sense, and the dude survives! This guy knows how to have fun with cgi.
have you ever thought of recreating real life crashes like say southall rail crash and paddington railcrash because this animation is absolutely fantastic and when it comes to train crashes no amount of information shock will compare to the visuals and the sounds, I think you could make some amazing and deep recreations of such crashes and really show people just what its like to go through something like that on a personal level
Between how absurdly over-the-top it is, all the implausible explosions (passenger coaches), and the impressively done VFX, the Hollywood film industry is sure to have many opportunities for this guy!
Damn man, this was incredible. Well done, i especially wanna mention how you nailed the realism since this exact thing has happened to me twice, both times while on vacation in Austria and thats why I always bring a neck pillow and sit with my back towards the front of the train.

@Rajo 6466 Anims the locomotive is an A3, and was operated by the LNER in the 20s. That doesn’t change the fact that the one in this animation is a British Railways A3, which you can tell by the BR lion and wheel logo and the distinct British Rail Green color, which is different from the LNER “apple green” color.
as someone who is a british rail enthusiast i can tell you that the americ- i mean english rolling stock is very legit yes yes and the locomotive totally has that whistle yes yes
I like how you used Polar Express sound effects, the only thing i don't like are the sparks coming from the coaches's wheels, normally sparks don't come out unless the vehicle or rolling stock is braking or turning at a sharp curve
The vacuum that would have operated these brakes would have been compromised during the crash, the loss of vacuum causing a brake deployment and therefore the sparks flying
The Ending ;D No but seriously, im just starting to learn blender and it´s already SO hard to make stuff animate good. MUCH respect to all the effort that was put into the keyframing and modelling of the destruction, this is absolutely great! Really good video!
It's really good and something I can only dream to achieve on blender but in the outside shot of the train during the established in B you had the Piston rides going backwards
I just wanted to say this was very entertaining and really motivates me as a beginner in Blender to keep practicing. I checked out your website and it says you made this at age 16. Are you really 16? If so this is phenomenal work and you have a very bright future ahead of you.
I like the fact that there’s literally just one guy on the train and he doesn’t even question that it’s empty or there isn’t any conductors or engineers on board lol
Aside from the stellar visual work here, I have to commend on how ingeniously farcical the short was clearly intended to be. Showing the World's Most Famous Steam Loco in a off-beat scenario, and actually crash and explode in impact was part of the joke, yet it's depicted ever so accurately. It hammers it in when the only survivor of the whole ordeal is the human occupant. Incredibly the 'Flying Scotsman' did almost face a collision impact in real life; it happened while it was on its nationwide tour of Australia in the late 1980s. As it was travelling on-route to Alice Springs, a road-truck raced across an isolated road-crossing in front of the approaching locomotive, though it cleared the tracks before it went any further. Regards, Samuel Farris.
That was great animation work man great job, can wait for people who have actually seen the flying scptsmam in real life to see this, they're either be amazed at the animation or go mad seeingthe world's most famous locomotive crash
