Jupiter the Fire Engine

To celebrate the belated 30th Anniversary of Fireman Sam. I thought it would be nice to recreate the old Jupiter from the classic stop-motion animated series, which was first broadcasted on S4C and BBC in November, 1987.

Jupiter is a fire engine, which is owned by the Pontypandy Fire Service and serve in a Welsh village of Pontypandy. She is mostly driven by Fireman Sam, though other firefighters have driven her as well like Elvis Cridlington. In the original series, Jupiter was based on a Bedford TK.

About this Model:

Not so much to describe this model. Originally the lockers were supposed to have animation sequences, but due to a technical difficulty, I decided to make them as hide/unhideable bodygroups instead.

I hope it won't give you any errors when you download it for use on SFM/Gmod. I may not be a good texture artist but I did pay a lot of attentions in 3D modeling.

FAQ:

- The chrome parts like the bumpers are too shiny and over-exposed, how can I tone them down?

After you load your model, you can either unload then reload the map or restart SFM (if you have saved your work), then the chrome parts will be less shiny and reflective.
