hi ,
This is my last diorama "En route pour Da Nang"
It's an Isuzu bus in Vietnam (from Arii brand 1/32 scale) with differnt figures (dragon,diopark,verlinden) In scale 1/35













This diorama had a silver medal in Maquettexpo show 2015
you can see more pics on my blog: http://uss-prizuttu.blogspot.fr

All your coments are welcome.

Nicely done. Especially like the road worn look of the bus.

Very nice diorama, thanks for sharing it with us..

Excellent dio- great colors and staging- a really nice scene.

Very nicely done and the colors & weathering on the bus look great. Is that the driver sitting on top taking a smoke break? Does the bus kit have any interior? Considering it's hot, humid 'Nam, a couple windows might have been left "open."

Very nice!!

Very nicely done!!! Nice concept and it turned out really lookin' good!

Loking very god.

Thank you Guys
For information the bus have a poor interior (just a driver post and bus bench)nothing very nice but you can scratch the interior.....

The review kit here => http://uss-prizuttu.blogspot.fr/2015/10/isuzu-bxd-30-132-eme-de-chez-arii.html

Windows are in one piece all around the bus but you can replace them by a rodhoïde sheet.

The weathering was made with Tamiya pastel and diferent pigments.

Philippe,

I would like to firstly complement you on the EXCELLENT COMPOSITION!

and now....super paint job and weathering!

Cheers,
Joe

Superbe !

those buses usually have their destinations marked on the side of the vehicle e.g. saigon to da nang. apart from that omission, I think you're work has been well executed

Thanks for your coments



This is the reference picture for my diorama,
The bus has not inscription on his side... But it was a good idea .

Next time perhaps

Nice work Philippe ! I had a similar project using the same kit but what put me off was the right-hand drive (and access doors...) of the Isuzu. I'm too lazy to convert it

H.P.

Very very very nice.. love it....

that was the big buss. Usually only seen on Highway One. There was a smaller version, and we saw them daily. The bigger bus was about twice a week. With the smaller buss, you'll see people riding on the roof and hanging on for dear life! I've even seen cows and pigs inside them. (now there's a diorama)

Really nice work and original idea.

Tom

Really excellent.

Nice and unusual subject.

Very nice Dio, but I would have loved to see people inside that bus. Good work!
