Pre-Production - Concept Art

I'm slowly learning the tracing method as a way to develop the concept art for my short. I am aware that i need to get some reference material especially for the clothing, styles etc for the flashback scenes and also the trains. I have some good ideas about where to get this information. I am experimenting with online photo galleries as a means to store/present this reference material.

At the moment i'm still unsure about which 3D modelling software i will be using. I've completed Max fundamentals and so i'm comfortable with Max bit i still would love to use Maya.
I have the Maya fundamentals series already (as well as tons of other maya material) but i'm not sure i can get up to speed in time for the modelling phase of the short. Also the ADP videos are in Maya so thats another reason to go with it.
