Re: 1967 vw delivery bus!
man your VW bus is really cute right from the start!
being a pure ferrari motor head, your works had somehow sway me away into doing cute builds like this...once in a while! keep going, i hope to see the same kinda opening doors as in the pics! i'll be watching! cheers! marc SGP

Re: 1967 vw delivery bus!
i bought those colors at a local hobby shop. it's model master but the tag with the color code is gone. it was some old stock left that i bought for a dollar each.
very hard to work with, i painted it 3 times. you have to be at least 2 feets to shoot and still hard to make it smooth |

Re: 1967 vw delivery bus!
Paint looks supersmooth.
A nice project. Are you going to use the stock wheels or do you have a surprise for us ? Are the pics fooling me or is the plastic still shining through along the roof (first and last pic of your painted model) ? I hope not for your sake, because the paintjob looks perfect. |

Re: 1967 vw delivery bus!
Looking beautiful. There's so much to do with old VWs. So many different, unique cars out there. What're you doing for the wheels?

Re: 1967 vw delivery bus!
i will probably put some porsche phone dials or vw bottle caps, still not sure about wich one
as for the paint, as soon as i red derXL comment, i went to look at it and it's probably just an illusion in the picture. everything is fine on the bus. for a couple of seconds, you scared me! lol |
