Re: VW Type 1 Delivery Van

This weekend I received my custom made decals, but the measures were not right.

Two of the decals will be used, and the smaller ones will be made again this week.

So I started with the body, because I wanted to paint it.

First I added a layer of white primer, and two layers of TS-Pure White. After that I painted the primer grey on it. I thought it looked to light, so I searched for a darker grey. German Grey from Tamiya was the solution

I also added some decals on the sides of the bus.













I also worked on the swampcooler. I made the air gap which leads the air through the window.





I wanted some white bumpers on it, so I painted them white. I also added some embossing powder on the side ends which will be a base for the rust.









Kris.
