I would recommend getting models of the MAN SL202s shile they're still around though, and maybe even one of the really new Scanias (1941-1948, 1823-1825). Also the MAN 11.190s, their days are numbered as well.

Once again, enjoy your stay! :)

Great to see that you're back, and that you're in Adelaide!

Speaking of buses that you should try and look out for...
Our new Scania K320UB 'CB80's (1941-1948, 1824-1825), although 1947 and 1948 are yet to hit the road. The very last few of the 11.190's before they're all gone out of normal service. And it would be good to see some of the rare ones made into models - such as: 1347 (MAN NL202/PMCA '160'), 2746 (MAN 18.280 HOCL-NL/ABM 'CB60'), 2801 (Scania L94UA/Volgren 'CR224L'), 1015 (Scania K310UA/Custom Coaches 'CB60 Evo II'). Even some of the Iveco Metro C260/Custom Coaches 'CB80''s, they're quite good buses. Some of the different buses which operate on the city loop (e.g. the hybrid buses), and even some ex Darwin buses. There's a lot to choose from, but do enjoy your stay here! :D

Hello everyone! I'm back. I did not have time for models during my stay in Australia. But the journey was really very nice. The weather was good, and I visited Melbourne and Adelaide. Of course, I had many things to do and to see, so I did not spend all the time making photos of transport. But finally, I have quite a big list of models that I can make. Today I'm presenting a new model of Melbourne B2 class tram 2128.

And here is a list of Melbourne trams that I can make: 136, 138, 160, 192, 209, 216, 218, 220, 242, 259, 270, 288, 297, 856, 946, 957, 2008, 2015, 2017, 2026, 2100, 3010, 3036, 3501, 3506, 3509, 3514, 3529, 3533, 3536, 3538, 5005, 6013 and 6043. You can vote for your favorite tram while I'm making a bus model from Adelaide!

Yes, sure, I can make a model if you send me photos. You can see an example on the previous pages of discussion. But I already have some buses from Sydney. And I still did not find enough time to make models of them.

Hey Andrey. I'm just wandering if you have any pictures of Adelaide's MAN 11.190s or the new Scania K320UD double decker bus. I'm also a huge fan of the ex Darwin buses so if you could make a model of one of those that would be great.

Finally, I made a model of Adelaide trolleybus 526! Trying to imagine why this type of transport was closed everywhere in Australia. But now we have quite similar scenario in Moscow. More than 10 trolleybus routes are closed, and there will be more bus replacements in the future...

The next model from Australia will be MAN 11.190. I have quite good textures, so it will be great.

Yes, all K320 artics with Light-City Buses are O-Bahn equipped.

The Australian Bus Fleet Lists are quite useful for that sort of question, the SA section can be found at the following link: http://fleetlists.busaustralia.com/index-sa.php

He can if you can provide him with photos of each side of the bus. I'm just finishing getting photos of a State Transit bus to give Mungojerrie to turn into a model...

Mungujerrie, do you think you could make these pictures in to a paper bus? I have sent you the pictures via email. By the way, i am interested in how you get the picture of the roof of the bus.

Hi everyone, I have just joined the group and this is my first post.

I've been in contact with Transit Graphics this week about placing an order for 35 cardboard Melbourne buses as well as trams & trains. They have kindly offered a price of $5.50 per model (normally $9.90) so long as I can get a minimum order of 20 per model. I have posted albums on facebook to let my friends know. I am not making any money from this venture. There may be members who are interested and would like to know more but I'm unclear if I am allowed to identify myself.

Anyway, please let me know if you like the idea and related thoughts about ordering the models.

Many thanks,

Metro Mike. :)

Hi all,

I'm going to have a shot at making some of these models the same style as mungojerrie, however if you could please provide me with the pictureds of these buses (front side and rear) at a decent angle that would be perfect! So bring on the suddgestions/pictures!

Thanks!

Hello to everyone! I haven't been here for a very long time, but today I have not the best news for you. Today any Russian website can be blocked instantly (due to the Ukrainian conflict). This means that you may not be able to access my models via the original website and/or I will not be able to support my own website anymore or publish models elsewhere.

So, I decided to upload a full archive of my models to Google Drive (I'm sure it will be working outside Russia), so you can get your copy - https://drive.google.com/file/d/16Dva5k ... sp=sharing
