Re: 23-window VW bus vignette

Thank you for this. I will make the part and include it. BTW, this buss is suppose to be from 1963. At least that what was on the kit's box.

Re: 23-window VW bus vignette

Sounds good. That pic I linked to is actually a bug drum, but the bus one will look so similar that at this scale there should be no functional difference.

Brilliant work!

Re: 23-window VW bus vignette

Thank you for sharing your build. I have to say i love your weathering techniques. And the bird eggs are a cool touch. Maybe one day you can do a tutorial on weathering for us?

Re: 23-window VW bus vignette

Decided to take it one more step. So I cut of the area that represented the closed sky view canvas and replace it with 3 braces and worn out canvas. Hope you like it.

Re: 23-window VW bus vignette

Looks good! It's kind of odd the way the two holes for the missing tail lights don't match though; they should both look like the driver's side does...
