Dials MOD....Work in Progress
 
I decided to have a go at re-working the dials that appear for the CE's reports. I didn't like the original at all.

Ails Transparent Dials Mod was a lot better. Today I used Adobe Illustrator to draw a completely new Battery Level Dial then imported the multiple layers into Photoshop and added bevels and textures. Here's what I have so far what do you guys think?

Looks very nice :up:
Just one thing, the scale on the "druckluft" should be green instead of red between 140-200. Its full at 200! ;)

The amps meter is VERY nice indeed :up:

Just to clarify everything apart from the Amps meter is the original which I haven't touched. The Amps meter is the one I made today

Sorry! I read your post badly :damn:
But like i said recently, your amps meter is really nice. Very good work indeed! :up:

It looks good, but it could need some slight aging IMO.

Yeah, that looks much better, less "clean".

The amperometer looks VERy well :) MUCH better than the original IMHO and it`s closer to a real amps meter...

Looking really good! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do to the other gauges. :)

Nice work EK. Can't wait for the finished product. SHIII is looking better all the time.
