I've made few skins for Vincent and Buffalo, so I thought I'll show them off here: First, LCPD Rapid Response Unit skin for Vincent:

And New Liberty State Police (based off NYSP) skins for Buffalo:

What do you think? Should I release them?

What do you think? Should I release them?

Yes please, especially the Buffalo skins. I have mine spawning with Black/Gold State Trooper traffic cops, so that skin would be perfect. (Hopefully we'll get a modified Stinger eventually so I can do the same there.)

Were you thinking about making police versions of Oracle, Sultan and Cavalcade FXT?

And here they are!

Great to see these skins coming out, they really weren't one of my strengths for the Buffalo, I stuck with making relatively simple ones.

I threw together a version of the vapid cruiser with a Whelen Liberty Non-ELS Lightbar by request:

I don't think it's substantial enough to go up in the DL section here but here's a 4Shared link if anyone is interested:

I'm working on the regular police version of the Buffalo now with alternating light setups. It looks like the MX7000 will be the best lightbar I can get my hands on that will use 4 lights well. Still my concern remains that it'll end up being very similar to the Buffalo that LtCaine did a long time back so I'm doing my best to keep things different. When it spawns as a slicktop it will very closely resemble the FIB Buffalo from the outside. On the inside however it will have a police computer, the prisoner cage, the traffic advisor bar and the spotlight.

NIce work!

That liberty lightbar looks sexy on top :thumbsup:

That looks great!

Horray!! You did it! Many thanks!

I was wondering again - would it be possible to have to two different lightbars on one model? Like Whelen Liberty and that V shaped one?

@Yard1: Cool idea: so maybe as extras would be cool.

Imagine this - two Vapid Cruisers responding - one with old, V lightbar, and one with new, shining Whelen Liberty! If it's possible, of course :happy:

Hey, Ekalb, try centering the light bar on the vapid a bit more. It looks great and it's nice to have a vapid with liveries. Thanks again.

Elkab, you have excellent models that really suit what i look for in a quality mod. Mostly because it stays within the GTA universe. I made this skin for it, and one for your awesome Vapid Cruiser you posted above that I think you should release!

Here is my Federal Protective Services inspired NOOSE skin:

What do you think? I'm going to upload the pack of them soon, I also have one made for the Vapid as well.

That's actually quite an interesting take on the NOOSE PIA skin there DLer. One thing I don't really like about the original Patriotism & Immigration Authority decals is how they take up a huge space of the side of the vehicle with uninteresting, ugly, serif text. Yours look a lot slicker though, keep it up.

love the vapid really love it

Thanks, I appreciate that. I have one made up for the Landstalker, Vapid, Buffalo, and a Black Hawk. I may be incorrect here, but are you also working on a Buffalo with the "vector" stock game light bar? I would like to make an LCPD livery to match my other Lt. Caine ones as well. What about the Patriot? I'm not here for requests, simple and plain, I know we've all got projects going on. Please let me know if you have something in mind and I'll see if I can add some skins for ya :)

The general duties police variant of the Buffalo I'm working on the moment will have a red/blue MX7000 but one with the original vector-style lightbar wouldn't be too hard of a task in the future. If you can try your hand at making a default LCPD-style livery that'd be really great. I've been trying to do so recently but I can't get the line decals to look correct. Partly due to the fact I'm not using photoshop for the textures and partly due to the slightly awkward shape of the Buffalo side panels.

DLer, wait Landstalker? You mean Caine's one, right? BTW. those skins look awesome! I hope you'll release them! I have made few vapid NOOSE skins for myself, but they are a straight ripoffs of US DHS :)

@DLer: If you want I can give you EFLC original police buffalo, it has vector lightbar :)

I am actually playing EFLC exclusively, so I have it. My frustration is that no-one has made a hi-res template of a Buffalo with the stock GTA lightbar for it to match my other hi-res Lt. Caine Cruiser/Patrol cars with LCPD templates. Same goes for the NOOSE Patriot. I was looking into mapping the Police Patriot that Thundersmaker made:

...and making a matching Federal Protective Services (FPS) NOOSE like the one above. I have not made one for the Patrol car however, not sure if it needs one. Which I'm surprised theres a lack of on all sites, although I understand the Landstalker matches its real-life equivalent Ford Expedition police car, and the H2 was never a police vehicle.
