Quoted from haunted1:

Working on a maisto samba bus. It was one of the orange ones, first I removed the windows. I used carburetor cleaner to remove the orange paint and soften the white powder coated paint. I then used a Sheetrock sponge to sand it and create rusted areas. I used some testers model paint mixed with a little paint thinner to paint the bottom section blue. Once it dried I used the sponge/sandpaper to crest some lighter sections again. I then used some flat rust color model paint again mixed with paint thinner to lightly wash and create a rusted look. Wiping some of the excess around to "dirty" up the white. I also used some matte clear coat paint to fog up the glass and then used some double sided tape to put it back in place. I plan to use some LEDs from Mezel mods to create make the bus glow when the flasher goes off. I am also going to try to do some headlights and a break light. I will post pictures once it's in the game.
(I also removed the seats and glued the front wheels down)

Painted up a new van for my Junk Yard. It was really fun painting the rust effect, I also lit the headlights and color changer inside mounted to the rag top, similar to the one in my last Junk Yard.
