The next step in the EPCOT Center Project is to build a monorail for the monorail station. Since the model is set in 1983, the monorail is a Mark IV model. (see this post for more info)
I started by modeling the nose of the monorail:
I’ve been tweaking the nose of the monorail trying to get it to look as close as possible to my reference materials. Tonight I worked on laying out and cutting the door to the driver’s cabin. The other night I also added the headlights to the front of the nose. (Although you can’t see them … Read more

The next step in my EPCOT Center project is to model Walt Disney World’s Mark IV monorail. But to the fact that the Mark IV has been out of service for many years, decent resources are hard to come by via the net. The Mark IV entered service at Walt Disney World when the resort … Read more
It’s time for another update. You’ll notice a few more colors in these images. I’ve “colored” a few of the areas to make them easier to distinguish from the other areas. By no means are these colors/textures/materials final. 🙂 One thing to note about this update, the monorail station is “roughed out” and I haven’t … Read more

It’s a lot easier to texture one booth and duplicate it now rather than duplicate them now and texture each of them individually later. As I don’t have any reference to what the signs above the ticket windows … Read more
I’ve picked up the EPCOT Center project after a much too long hiatus. As this project was started when I had much less 3d modeling experience, there are some mistakes to correct. I’ve been spending the last week cleaning up the meshes around the entrance to the park and the monorail station. I’m planning to … Read more
I know it’s been a while since my last update, but I’m finally making some progress. I had to spend a good bit of time recreating the roof. It’s done now. As you can see for the image above, I’ve been putting a lot of detail into the model. I’m preparing the model for another … Read more
I’d like to thank Planet7 for his help with Horizons and Epcot photos that have really helped fill in the gaps in my model. He runs a really cool site on the Universe of Energy attraction: http://planet7.home.mindspring.com/energy/ check it out for some really cool info on UoE! Well, I’ve been busy adding details to the … Read more
