Presenting another Locomorph, or Locolizard as I'd like to call my own designs, based on the British Rail Class 370 or Advanced Passenger Train.
I made her initially not too long after my Class 37 character (so no she isn't a result of a "trend") with the idea of her being more snake-like, partially since most people called my Class 37 a train-snake which I found humorous but primarily because the APT-P itself looks a lot like one, with the head-lights looking like heat pits and the sleek, streamlined, colourful appearance. I decided to go with the original Intercity APT livery instead of making my own for her (like my Aeromorphs with Thac-Air) because in my opinion, it's one of the most pleasing liveries I've seen on a train and I know I can't beat that haha, plus it also reminds me of a snake with how it's applied on the APT-P.
Art-wise, while the APT-E was more 70s to me the APT-P is very much an 80s train, thus I really wanted to do some kind of retro-like background for her with the low poly landscape, and overall I just did what I felt like haha.

This is indeed a very pattable train. Really good design work!
Omg snek trains are my favourite form of train/locomorphs. It is absolutely genius to use the headlights as the heatpits. I've never seen that before but it works so well :D The anatomy is fire, and the neon effect of the lasergrid is spectacular.
This is your best drawing yet. The lighting and shading here is superb, adding depth to the loco's body, shine to evoke her smooth metallic material, while seamlessly tying in the background in a way that everything pops with colour.
The dark colours adds to the contrast yet is still easily visible which avoids sqinting, coupled with the bright colours being not too bright to avoid glare. It's tricky to explain but everything is balanced such that it is pleasing and relaxing to the eye while still retaining the spectacular pop of contrasting colours. That balance you strike here is perfect and appreciated.
I also realise she's playfully luring us with the sandwich... It's working <w<

What a spectacular design I'm still in awe. She looks stunning, the way the train and the snake elements work together flawlessly. Her body, the anatomy is excellent, the pose is cute and interesting, the way the tail curves back, hugging that sandwich (that is a very neat reference~). And speaking of the tail, that is the best idea I've seen, to incorporate the carriages into the design.
Overall she is and incredibly well-designed and executed, very attractive character, who stays perfectly balanced between being a cool design and a gorgeous, sexy locomorph~

Very glad you like her design and the blend of the two, also glad hearing her anatomy looks excellent haha.
I appreciate the likening of her tail design, considering the APT-P is the whole set and not just the driving carriage it makes sense to include the rest somehow, even if only partially.
