Author Topic: WIP 50's style bus [IMAGE HEAVY]  (Read 4635 times)

I built this for my upcoming zombie apocalypse server. It is based off of old buses from the early 20th century. You will find different models as you explore the wasteland. This one is a turist bus and will transport you to other locations for money.

Please tell me what should be added or improoved.










Very impressive
idk what to tell you to change

Not exactly adding onto the bus, but here's an idea;

Buses that look like they were once school buses but were turned into Evac buses and abandoned when everything got out of control, and you'll find some equipment on them, like medkits or pills. They'd be found in places like highways/interstates, or near places like schools (of course), or near "zones" that are places that block off zombies with barricades and all, but accessable by the player, or they could be in completely random places. But, they would be rare to find.

Then, there'll be a working evac bus that will only take you to parts like different cities or to the other side of the city.

Then, there would be a normal school bus, but when you get on you'll find backpack-like items that increase your inventory space, they'd be found randomly like evac buses, or mostly around schools/residential areas.

Next, there's the church bus. It would look like the school bus but blue, and at the same level of rare as the Evac bus, and it would either have things like notes telling the player the dangerous areas, or notes with prayers on them, notes telling the player where the church is (it would be like zones but without as much equipment as them).
It would look something like this;



Next and final, the city bus. It would pretty much look normal like a civilian city bus, but inside you'll find things like backpacks (like the school bus) or small-arms weapons (pistols basically)

There would be a couple working city buses that will take you to random parts of the cities.

I'm gonna point out the flaw in Decepticon's above post

This is a bus in the 50s


So forget that awful Valley Bus idea

Also city buses didnt look any different.

literally my first thought was
"What the forget"

It looks like a bus from India, to tell you the truth.

Honestly, when I saw it i thought of a train.

I dont know nothing about 50's so I cant tell what to change remove or add.

Pretty sure that's a bit older than the 50s. Nevermind, my mind was picturing the old Greyhound busses. That image says UK, so yeah.
Greyhound.
On topic:
No offense OP, but I don't really think it has the "Art Deco style/ 50's Flare." Its more of just an old school bus that some guy hotrod'd. It is very nice though, as is. I think maybe you could scale it down a tad bit too.

If you ever want tips on making old stuff, you know who to call :)

I built this for my upcoming zombie apocalypse server.

oh god.
I trust that you'll make a good one though.

The build is amazing, but I don't know if it would really fit in with the 50's.

Colors are sort of wack, but they look alright.

Sort of a weird color scheme but other than that lovey as hell.

I got this vibe too, but I like it. Definitely fits the "tourist bus" bill if you ask me.

thisthisthis

also, this is for a zombie apocalypse.. and you made an indian bus? tribal
what, white people can't get the zombie virus??

Looks more like a south American or Indian bus if anything. Also doesnt look like the 50s, has more of a dieselpunk feel to it.

perhaps grab a colorset with dulled colors? that'd be greato baito

forget i read this as 80's style bus

stuff sorry

However, OP's bus does look like this



Also, I didn't say it specifically HAD to look like the bus, I said "it'd look something like this"

Also no need to go off saying "forget your idea it's awful qq"

I was gonna say, this is really nice but, it doesn't seem much of a 50's bus, I don't know. When I thought of a 50's bus I thought Greyhound er somethin'.
