Comment: This looks alittle blocky but other wise nice job. Also Get more light in the camera or use PhotoShop.

As

LEGO Model: 6/10
Model is good but it still so blocky. The front windows look strange since the clear 4*2*1 is not totally clear, i.e. you can see the tube inside of it. Many parts could do smoothing around, like front bumper.

Model based on actual thing: 8/10
You really achieved the same look on the bus, which is hard when the bus is mostly in black color. The front is really tough too but you managed to solve that in rather good way. I myself would leave the glass away and only build the frames of it. But doors, Denny, doors! You need to work them out!

Overall: 7 /10

And let this be warning to all LEGO builders, black is really hard color to take pictures with, especially when there is colors like yellow or white in the same creation.
