Time to ditch the card in favour of a kit I have been wanting to do but never had the chance to buy one until now.
I haven't got much room to pull out the spures but here is a look at what found in the box

 

[Gern]

I got one of those Peter so I'll be watching closely, but good luck now you've taken the sprues out of the box, 'cos unless you're starting the build and using some of the parts, you'll NEVER get them all back in!

Count me in. I can't remember seeing a big coach built before.

Looks interesting. Quite a lot of decals, I assume the red squares on the decal sheet are seat backs?

I doubt it as those things are 55 seater coaches, that's the ex PCV driver in me coming out.

Well there are around 110 of them, so fabric centres front and back.......that’s the mathematician in me coming out LOL....

I have finally got to making a start so here's the engine before and after a bit of weathering
And after weathering

[peterairfix]

As I won't concentrating on the underside but anyway here's the suspension and axels in place and my choosen colour is the same as the the hub caps

 

[peterairfix]

Started on the front and middle entrance ways.

I have lost a bit of mojo on the Bentley so let's see how far I can get before I lose mojo on this one.
Next on the construction list is painting all the seats I have put the main color on I just have to add detail on the back.

 

[Steve Brodie]

looking good.

 

[peterairfix]

Finished off painting the back of the seats and started on the masses of decals.

 

[peterairfix]

While I am waiting for some items to be delivered I am having another go at this one I put it down after I came to the point to mask windows that's where I came unstuck but I have finished them this time around.

 

[Jim R]

Hi Peter
Masking looks neat. Masking is not the most pleasant part of the hobby but has to be done.
