A few months ago I posted a Western-themed MOC, which I had to put on hold shortly thereafter due to family emergencies which have since been resolved. During that time I became inspired to forego my Western style MOC and move toward something a little more modern. My ultimate goal is to build a complete Lego city, but for the time being I started with a couple police Interceptors (with a sneak peek at the police station at the end). I like the "sleek" design the Interceptors have, but something seems missing from it; can't quite put my finger on exactly what it is. The police station has a fairly basic outside design, which I like. The inside has plenty of detail currently in the works. The room closest to the camera is the "reception" area, far left room is an office, and far right room is booking/jail. I may or may not build a full second floor on top of this, since my plate inventory is running very low. We'll see how it goes. As soon as I finalize this Interceptor design I plan on building several more along with a few undercover Interceptors. I have a police force of 38 officers... hopefully I'll find a job for all of them without making my city look like a police state.

UPDATE WITH FINALIZED VERSION!

The main issue with this type of 4w+ (4-wide plus mudguards) vehicles are the tires that are sticking out which doesn't look realistic. I'd opt for some more decent wheels (e. g. http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=51011 plus http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=93594). The design of the car as such is quite nice.

Same for the police station, looking forward to see how this will turn out.

Agreed 100%. I think you just helped me determine what was lacking. I think instead of getting new wheels I'll just use the same wheels, and use the short instead of wide wheel holder pieces. I'll have to raise everything up by 1/3 to make it all line up. Finalized version update coming soon.

Been very busy with non Lego related things but finally got around to taking some pictures of the finalized version of my Interceptor. I am very happy with this final design, hope you all like it! Plenty has happened to the police station update wise but I have not yet taken pictures of it. Possibly by this weekend I'll have it updated.

(First post hasthe updated pictures)
