You beat me to it lol

I wanted a sort of GTA:VC style skin for the Sheriff car, but the issue is that the GTA:VC police skin is very basic. So I'm thinking of trying to add a stripe of livery on it - something along those lines. Also got the shade of green wrong I also think the Blue I tried in LA md 1.8 looked better.

The closest ambulance is the basic life support. Features a green/white scheme and sporting a red and yellow livery. Also features a red cross and "AMBULANCE" written on both sides! Order yours today for only $65,555.99
For an additional $70,000.01, you could upgrade to the Advance Life Support ambulance. These models feature a simpler white stripe, but come in the sporty metallic blue paintjob. You also get a upgraded from "AMBULANCE" to "Fire Department Paramedic"!!
For Los Angeles customers only. Subject to availability. Does not come equiped with paramedics or shock paddles. Hunter enterprise is not held liable for any damage these vehicles may cause to you. Side effects to using sirens and equipment include: Drowsiness, headaches, back pain, shortness of breathe, death and possibly radiation posioning.
So to sum it up:
Happy with the ambulances
Unhappy with the police vehicle
No idea where to start with the fire engines lol (And a small side note: See the back end of the fire engine at the bottom of the picture? That arrived at the scene and hit a stationary fire engine and became trapped inside it. This made it really hard to take a picture lol)

They look good. I like the BLS Ambulance.

Didn't you do some UK based skins at some point as well?

Thanks
Yea, top of page two I need to find them again.

BLS ambulance hasn't changed.
The ALS is now a UK ambulance. I think the yellow variant looks better than the white ambulances. I forgot the roof needs painting though The words on the side need fixing because they clip into the side lights, but that's not major. I should've picked a better angle to take the picture tbh.
The 3rd ambulance is the Airport ambulance, and it's a Rural Metro ambulance I'm very happy as to how this turned out.

Spoiler

And the UK cops are back These two were my favourite and were the only ones I copied. But I'm thinking that they do look a bit daft, since BASTIAN is right when he said it looks strange since the cars are very American. So I'm going to try re-texturing the Base game units and see how it goes.

but it's a good own work!

new:



85 % - Autors: BASTIAN, Christopher@ABG & RD_Saarland

[BASTIAN]

Some nice models there mate!

What program do you use?

Do you mean me? So i use ZModeler, but don't make models.

[BASTIAN]

I have made any improvements of the texture, mapped a little bit new, and add e few polys. No, i write ever the autors on/ under the screens - all what do you can see, is permissioned by the autors, skinners (i am) can have good models to present good quality, but that is not decisive.

That's a really cool bus lol. Me wanty

[Sirius7dk]

Your screens look very nice

Only bad thing I can say is that it is torture not to be able to use them in a mod

[BASTIAN]

hehe

No, the Mebakash-Screens let you showing the vehicles of the mod, in a few days comes the german em-newstime with infos to them.
And the others comes in mods too, but i think not for public - maybe later.

[Grim_Wizard]

I like your skins Bastian how ever on the first skin you posted of that BMW police car, the front bumper does not match the side colors, I can tell that it was taken from a picture and wasn't blended.

[BASTIAN]

I can see, it's your faible, a Bavarian Motor Works. Good old german quality.

I tried out EM3 today, then remembered how rubbish it is - The most used gear in a vehicle on EM3 is the reverse gear
Tried to make three skins. They looked ok onced I'd finished editing them, but they turned out rubbish ingame. So I'm hoping to redo them into EM4 sometime soon.

Spoiler

The three skins. The closest unit is... King George's county I believe, and is only there because it looked interesting.

Spoiler

The rozzers. based off of James May's police car in Top Gear. (watch their efforts here on youtube). The text on the side says "Catching crims and locking them up..." "...In your community". This one was rather annoying because the text became inverted in game, and the red text is slanted wrongly, but it'll be fine in EM4.

Spoiler

Polizia. Based off of Jeremy Clarkson's police car.. This one turned out the best. I'm quite proud how "Polizia" is in two colours - It looked really bad when editing it, but it turned out good
Text on the car reads: "In jail no one can hear you scream"

So yea. If I can finish this history essay before tonight (lol) then I might get them done for tomorrow I hope so anyway.
The only problem is: I don't think the CHP Camero is in EM4. If it's not, then that could be a little problematic.

[randomperson139]

The CHP Camaro is in EM4. You can install it using the AUS installer, or you can enable it by editing the freeplaybase xml file.

[nick the greek]

Nice skins Hunter. They would be better in Em4 BASTIAN I love all your skins

The rozzers. based off of James May's police car in Top Gear. (watch their efforts here on youtube).

I remember watching that episode and having my sister pissing me off to tune the TV to another channel
