Golden bus

buss_vastberga_2011

I love old cars and buses, and this one has caught my eye for a very long time now. I pass by it on my way to work. It is parked in an industrial area not too far from where I live, and I have been thinking that I should go there to draw it some day. It only took me about two years to reach that ‘some day’, but hey, better late than never, right?

Judging from the red front, this one is clearly an old specimen from Stockholm´s local traffic. Someone did a good job trying to add some glamour to it with some gold spray paint, but somehow they didn´t manage to buy enough paint to cover the whole bus… Still, the charm is intact, don´t you think?
