I'm getting sick of people thinking that all busses are splitties. No one makes decent diecasts or so much as a coloring page to aknowledge busses looked a little different between 68-79. I drew this up at work last night and although more or less a cartoony feel don't knock the innaccuracies.

Use it for free, ad the vw logo's at your own peril I didn't want to risk the VAG nazi's coming down on me for drawing a cartoon.

Oh yeah, those are p-rate tires on this mofo so be careful that your printer doesn't explode or burst into flames upon copying. :P

Nice job! I'm giving it to my kids now. How 'bout a high top :)

Sat Dec 27, 2008 4:22 pm

sure I'll change it to a tin top people hauler tonight. It'll be easier from now, just overlays to change it up.

check later I'll have a tin top and high top with a front spare. That should about cover something for everyone.

Neat drawing

how 'bout an earlier bay Westy with wrap-around bumpers and backwards opening top? (since your taking requests) thanks!

Cool! Can it be bigger? My kid has "staying in the lines" issues. :lol:

Sun Dec 28, 2008 10:33 am

after you save the pic use your photo editor and make it 200-300% of origional size It'll make it fit on 4 peices of paper. as it is this should take up one whole sheet. i'm off for a few days so I can do some more wednesday night (Too much going on in my free time to do this at home).

Since I don't have kids i am gonna color this myself.

You haven't seen busdepot.com's little models? They are a late model bay, I had the keychain one to tell the bus and beetle keys apart

I went over the pencil lines a few times but still couldn't get them to scan worth a darn. You may have to retrace a little after printing, if I had steadier hands I'd have done them in ink.

here ya go, nice and dark:

or darker at least.
