Posted April 27, 201311 yr First go at a Bus Eireann - livery, reg. plates etc. still to be added. As usual for me, its 7 studs wide. IMG_5968 by Dfenz, on Flickr IMG_5967 by Dfenz, on Flickr
April 27, 201311 yr Very nice 'Dfenz', though I have two tiny issues......1.) wheels are too small for such a tall bus and 2.) it's not wide enough to be so tall......you wouldn't want to go fast around corners with it would you ? But still I like and the working headlights are a bonus ! Brick On......while on the buses 'Dfenz' !
April 27, 201311 yr Author Thanks for the feedback. I will look into reducing the height a little before finishing and adding decals. I'm happy with the wheel size even if my LEGO wheel range is rather limited.
April 27, 201311 yr That's okay, I feel it's about two brick height too much......use a real bus against the roof/ceiling heights of your modular buildings - compare to real life objects.
April 27, 201311 yr Cool bus, the design on the side is really neat The lights actually have lights behind them right? Great detail
April 27, 201311 yr The side "paint scheme" is nice. It's a monstrous size--I think you can get away 10-wide-ing that!
April 28, 201311 yr is the bus dropping of a group of senior citizens for a movie? :) Yes the wheels cold be bigger, but you are stuck with what you have I would make it not as tall, or make the side windows bigger? also the rear vision mirrors need to be one stud longer otherwise I do like the bus and the paint on the sides
April 28, 201311 yr Very cool looking paint scheme well done! Great mirrors (still trying to workout how they are fixed) and nice touch with the headlights. Thanks for sharing.
April 28, 201311 yr Author I've now reduced the height. Here is the next version - livery still to be added. IMG_5973 by Dfenz, on Flickr
April 28, 201311 yr That's better......and I must say sorry, you are using larger wheels.....the hubs being black as well as the tyres - not so easy to see. Keep going and Brick On 'Dfenz' !
April 28, 201311 yr The proportions look much better now. Anyway, very nice creation, especially the colour scheme on the sides.
