pturley84 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Hello all, I have completed my build up of the Revell of Germany London Bus. This is definitely a time consuming kit and not for the faint of heart. All-in-all it was a fun build bit it took me 6 1/2 months to complete and I am glad it is over. The whole thing is painted with acrylic paint. The body is cleared with Krylon Gloss clear. I detailed the engine with some parts from Pro-tech. I also made my own umbrellas, breifcase, sling shot, and magazines for the interior. I hope you enjoy. Thanks,Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Joy Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Very nice. I like it a lot. But it begs the question - what happened to all the passengers? Was there a bomb threat? Accident? Struck by alien people-snatchers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Ed Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Wow Paul. Looks like you've scuffed up the face of the steps, and stained the seats to show use. Well Done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne swayze Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Wow! That's a lot of work! However, you have built a great looking bus with lots of detail. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Beautifully done model. Really makes me miss London of the late '60s-early '70s. Even the looks-like washed-out morning sunshine is perfect. Edited March 19, 2016 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
