Hi everyone, what started out as me messing around in Blender has evolved into an actual project.
The Mercedes-Benz O405N is a low floor bus which saw its success within the U.K between 1998 to 2013, Travel West Midlands/NXWM/NXC had almost 200 during that period although a small handfull of examples are still around under training bus and preserved show bus status. The scream from there magnificent ZF transmission is what sparked my interest in transport from an early age.
Variants:
A regional variant, with perhaps the setvar option of various route and destination displays, as there were different types.
Release Date:
No idea, not anytime soon.
I would love to hear some tips, suggestions and constructive criticism in order for this bus to be the best it can.
Pictures: VERY MUCH WIP!
Currently, I am relying on Flickr for reference images which seem to be working well so far. So if you have references images feel free to send them.
I don't claim to be an expert so I'm very much learning as I go along. If you want to see some old attempts of me building this bus, you can find those in the 'What's on your workbench" thread. I may put some images below to show where I began and my current skill level.
