I didn't know what forum to post this in but, I want to ask a vehicle DEV what is your go to font. I'm new to reskinning and I want to create some Medical and Police Skins. Thanks

Lil' late answer but really there isn't a single end all be all font. Though pretty often for original designs I tend to favor Arial Black for big and generic texts, then Commercial Script or times new roman in bold for stuff like mottos. A good way to make it interesting is adding drop shadows and outlines, and a tilt of a few degrees, examples below!

For US fire/medical, i would use times new roman style fonts in bold, and for euro style I'd use more Arial type ones
