I´m still missing a wheel from a B Type London Bus - if it will ever apear?

Today I finished a MB 300 SE in a new color named Champagne.
The model matches quite good with the MB 250 made by Siku - this one was once a Taxi. Stephan

the merc in champagne looks fab, like what you done with the siku ,

Totally agree, both look great.

I had gone the other way with (darker) with the last 46 Merc and I'm now inspired to do some lighter colors on that model. My last redo of this model, I changed it to a graphite metallic with wire wheels. It looked good but I'm thinking the lighter colors enhance the casting and show more of the many details.

Not ready yet (I´m waiting for a better printed dump) but nearly. This is what I started with. Stephan

If you get that concrete shoot perfected, I need 3 of them. maybe I could piggy back on your order.

I could sent you the file if you know somebody who can print it for you.
If not I will see how I can get some more parts and sent them over to you.

I´m not shure if you are aware of the Radio Rentals Commer van - the one for the staff who wheren`t able to climb ladders or handle antenna.
Just a simple delivery van for television sets and radios. Stephan

Very nice! Saves having to buy those fairly expensive reproduction parts and good fix for a broken skylight too.

I did this one about 15 years ago. The window insert was ruined so I made new windows with clear plastic. All the parts were missing (TVs, ladder, and antenna). I filled in the antenna hole and used a ladder from a Merryweather fire engine that had the tips broken off one end of the laddder. I had just started making my own decals and the fixative I was using caused the red ink to bleed on the decal.

I like the double negative.
We are only happy if you are dis-satisfied.
