Fictional bus- what you think?

Well, I got bored the other day and decided to mess around with Sketchup. I messed around with some tools, then after about 30 minutes I made this:



Now I do not know weather to continue with this or not. I could make this bus fully if you wanted but it is not real so I am not sure if people will like it. Leave me some comments - and if you want me to continue with the bus, what do you want to be added to it? I want the bus to be made by the community of OMSI.

Hi,

I think the bus is supposed to be liked by you, so it's at least good training for a real bus if you want to model one afterwards. The Developers told us more than once to use Blender for modelling because OMSI is programmed to handle files made by Blender.

To be honest, I don't like the bus at the moment but maybe I'm the only one thinking this way.

I hope you can understand my English,

Greetings from Austria,

I was thinking about making a fictional bus too! That is, once I learn how to...

Model looks good for a start, useful for the Durham map.

We make fictional maps, so why not fictional buses to go with them? Nice to see how this will turn out, but somehow I'd still prefer real buses....

It might look better with bigger wheels... and maybe a bit thinner? Standard british buses are 2.5m in width, but we don't want people breaking their backs getting in! The front radiator grill is a bit ugly too... sorry to be a nit-picker!

Don't worry, I need stuff like this. I want to make a good bus that everyone likes :) . I am trying to base the bus off this - http://www.eurotransportmagazine.com/wp-…dline-buses.jpg - I am going to work on the grill to make it look more similar. I will also change the width as that is easy to do.

Has anyone got any ideas for what the front of the bus should look like? I am not really liking it and might start it again. Also what type of interior do you want? (if you want me to make one based on another bus give me a pic of the inside and ill try make it similar)
