Next tasks are to fit out and paint the coach and cab interiors, fit the glazing, add the seating and finally the step lights. And the motor coach exhausts.

RMweb Gold Darius43 Posted May 21, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 21, 2021 Step lights added. The were cut from a strip cut from a larger sheet of black coloured plasticard, gripped in the jaws of some small pliers and given rounded ends with a scrap of sandpaper. Once glued in place the front face was given a coat of BR light grey. Cheers Darius 1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
