Stop looking at it through your liveing room window. And that means no running upstairs too to see what it looks like from up their too.

I have been too busy packing and getting it ready for our trip tomorrow to look at it. lots of big jumpers, food and a spade for digging us out of the snow, its dinging down now.

Heading for http://www.wigwamholidays.com/Strathfil ... am_Village my mate and his boys are the Indians we are the cowboys in our wagon

What do people think of the paintwork on the front? Is it too cheesy? i am still unsure of it.

Lines look cool....almost good enough for Amy Winehouse

Seriously, i messed about with masking tape for ages before doing mine. But think you got it rite, got the old style curve on a square bus.
Looks good...well done

Nicky want's to know why you painted the windscreen.

I told her you were practicing flocking for your next Xmas tree.

It looks good!

Mellowyellow; cheers for that. I used to do van livery, computer graphics and alike. So I have had plenty of practise getting straight lines. i was very impatient with the blue set and applied the tape on the white, when it could have done with a few more hours drying time. No damage that can't be fixed though.

I think the old style curve adds something to it. I am a big lover of curves

Lloyd; Nice

I only put paper up on one side after making a right mess of the first side. Numpty.

A good job is all in the prep!

Thanks
