Jarda, Not really my cup tea. But as usual you are making a silk pusre out of a sow's ear! Great looking work and attention to detail.

A little more done. I engraved the transmission cover on the lower floor. On the upper floor, there should be an emergency exit on front left side. But the picture of the real thing shows nothing but a riveted floor mat and a seat. I would really like to know how the emergency exit is supposed to work. I left the upper floor unchanged as my knowledge does not go to a great detail. The tire system seems to be a bit strange to me. While the wheels are perfect in every detail, there is no lettering on the tires which gives the whole wheel sort of unbalanced look. The rims are loose and just a ribbing on the wheel´s perimeter holds the tire in place. Holds? Hardly! This looks fairly okay: A bit of worse look on the inside: While all the tires are identical, the ribbing of the wheels is not. That is why I can easily do this: Ribbing on the outside dual: I just don´t get it. I would hate to use a glue on the vinyl tires but I will probably have to. Jarda

Jarda, I have a question for you.. You made the drivers set with rips and tears in it, but all the bus seats are perfect, are you going to add wear and tear to these as well?

The idea of damaged driver´s seat upholstery has been in my mind for a while but I never made it on my model trucks. This photo made me think that it could happen on a bus as well. So I made it on this bus. My version is a bit overdone, I just wanted to give it a try. I must admit that I did not think of the other seats. I will not make any rips to them. Maybe some wear effect with a help of a colour filter. Good point, though. Thank you for the idea. Jarda

Jarda, Watching your in progress builds is interesting and educational , not to mention highly enjoyable for me. I continue to marvel at the level of detail you are applying to this model. The engine bay looks spot on as they say. The rest o the model in just amazing.
