[QUOTE=ned_ballad;31710753]you know a claw would probably work as a melee weapon using his Saxxy animations.
He already kind of "punches" with the Persuador anyway. Just see if Valve can bodygroup his fingers off (so no need for awkward finger positioning) and then a claw would work just fine.[/QUOTE]
Why not give him something of a harpoon, or spear type object? Just he doesn't encroach on the heavy's fisting area of expertise. Also, if you're making launcher replacements, you could do something like having him spit out globs of slime, that stick to the enviorment and possibly opposing players, and it explodes, or maybe the slime when spit on a player slows them down significantly? I really like the idea of all this halloween stuff. you guys have no clue how stoked i am for this pack. and whatever Valve has instore for halloween themselves. it's around my birthday too, that also could have an effect on why i'm stoked. hahaha. i also like how there are several different halloween concepts for each class. i.e. demo dracula, sea monster, etc. Keep it up guys! :)))
Made some edits to my model so it didn't clip as much ingame. As well as made the syringe bigger and more exaggerated.

Can i make a suggestion? Take out the bend in the syringe that's not supposed to look like it's going into the medic, i.e. at the top of the weapon, and make it pointy. right now it just looks like a bent bar super glued to the top. make it straight and, sharp/pointy like a syringe, and then BOOM you've got a masterpiece. :) Love it though. Just being nitpicky.
I'd still prefer it syringeless

Even though those forearms are made for punching through walls, it's better than clipping.
Also there's something going on with his fingers when the demoman's lods start kicking in.[/QUOTE]
How about a harpoon or something for a melee and a torpedo launcher for a primary? They would of course be all rusty and covered with seaweed and slime, like he found them on the ocean floor or has simply been using them underwater for a while.

Why not have the syringe attached to the blade-face's mouth or lower jaw in some way, so it looks like it's drinking the victim's blood?

This is all wishful thinking on my part, of course, but I imagine it'd be best if the hands were included in the game as a melee weapon. If I make a harpoon gun, it'd work as a sticky launcher.
Harpoons stick into things.
Anyway, I was just kind of an idiot with the arms earlier, and I got the size down.

When (that means if) I get the finger stuff sorted out I'll give him pretty nails or whatever.

You mean like harpoons with dynamite or something attached to them? They'd have to act like arrows to look right, though.
Oh and torpedoes for a grenade launcher would make sense in a way. I doubt they would act very differently from nades on land.

Yes.
Grenade launcher's out since the pack will include legs.

Ignore the bad motion blur on the second one, I'll fix that.
Shugo said a while back I should use a mannequin, but I want to see what the community thinks, first.

I'd need to have a modeler cut the pocket off of the Engineer to do that.

What did you think about my idea to have him spit, or shoot globs of slime, or black muck that sticks to things, and he can blow those up. But since you wouldn't really be able to see his mouth in first person, you could make it shoot from his hands. globs that act as stickies. Just a thought i had. You're doing a great job.

Couldn't you get the angle right and then edit the Engie out of the image rather than messing with models? It doesn't seem like it'd be hard to cut it out manually in Photoshop - if you can't do it yourself, I probably could.

I'd rather make an explosive harpoon gun, since it's something that a demoman without all the fish items could use. Also, it'd be a gun so no animations are necessary.
I think stickies orient themselves pointing all over the place when they stick to things, though, so I don't know how feasible the harpoon actually is.
We'll see.

better?
The new texture is wip (nearly monocolour)
Did Shugo ever release a more current backpack icon set yet?
I see the fancy icons on the wiki, so I'm assuming that they are, unless he wanted to finish them all before release.

Yeah, the model looks better, but you're going to need some [B]good[/B] texturing.

Personally I like the one on the left, as the bottom one looks cheesy IMO, and the top one looks rather wierd without the syringe, again IMO.
Just for reference the Syringe point is based off the one in Swizzles Medic Polypack, as that one looks like it could suck your blood and brain fluid right out of you.
I'm working on Freddy's very "cut" hat :D

The one i suggested with the straight syringe looks best to me right now. It coming out of the mouth, or be bereft of one all together just looks off.
