Upholstery Sketches

We've been chatting for a while now about what colour we'd like the interior to be and what would go nicely with the stripy fabric we bought, so today I got the paint box out.  I've also had an idea in my head for a while now (after seeing a beautifully trimmed bay on the web) about taking the theme through to the front of the bus onto the seats and door cards.  Here are a couple sketches of how I picture it to be.  Luckily, I showed them to Ange and she loves the idea!
Testing colours for vinyl and upholstery fabric detail for the seats & door cards.
Captain's chair finished in vinyl, with stripy centre panel and piped edges. 

Passenger door card finished to match captain's chair and with diamond stitching detail on vinyl panels.
