So i know there is a skull for pyro ingame, but i felt like doing one.
But the teeth are messing with me.

There will also be a lower jaw if i can spare enough faces.
But i dont know if that will happen.
A. I remake the same things over and over not just because I like them, but for practice. I learn from my mistakes and if I figure out a new way of doing something I use it to remake something I've made before better.
B. Baseball bats are Scout's thing. Variation is good, yes, but he already has a mace, a sword, a candy cane, wrapping paper, a fish, etc. so your logic is flawed.
C. I like criticism, when the criticism makes sense. Every time this style of criticism comes up it reminds me of Bart Simpson asking for salt until there is too much salt and then has the waiter take his meal back.
D. You're thinking of an aluminum bats; this is a wooden bat, and wooden bats look like this.

They're more uniform in their growth.
E. The splinters I made were based off of the pain train, only I made them look more like the splinters from a baseball bat rather than an axe handle. Both are made from wood, yes, but different wood splinters in different ways just like any other object.
Now, I added a huge fucking gigantic crack that not only explains why the nails were necessary, but also makes it look more damaged. I shrunk the splinters down. I left the nails the way they were because everyone keeps saying to bend the nails but that doesn't make any sense; they're under going pressure from the wood and wouldn't bend like you think they would.
Here is the image.

[QUOTE=Deodorant;33909067]Excuse my basic fucking understanding of photoshop, but what exactly am I supposed to do in the select channels step? If I paste while having all four channels selected I just paste the inverted picture and subsequently paint it black. If I past while having one specific channel selected, nothing happens.[/QUOTE]
Go under the Channels Tab, should be next to Layers and if not find it through the Window menu at the top, and press the "Create New Alpha Channel" button.
EDIT:
Oh, and here's my texture.

no offence dude but ughhhhh.
[QUOTE=blaholtzen;33909399]filters[/QUOTE]
I was thinking not enough motion blur myself, but you do bring up a good point.
compare your texture to the sandman's/bat's texture, you'll start to notice what's wrong then.
Good idea, Tony.
Also, how do you use motion blur in your stuff?
To be honest skunk, the model is pretty good, but it's hard finding a good wood texture that fits in the style of TF2. Try getting a hand from another texturer,
Damn ninjas.
[QUOTE=Blitz n' Barrag;33907247]Trying to keep this from being buried in thread[/QUOTE]
As a reminder and as I said before. Don't worry about the lack of update until the 29th-30th. I'm not at home and I hardly load a regular Emporium page so I can't load the OP. I'll update all the release since the page 33 when I'll get home ;3
Anyhow I hope you all had some great party/holidays/days with your family (or with your cat). Anyway, I'll be back soon Emporium :3

Uh, you don't? Why would you use a blur filter?

Slow the fuck down, motion blur is the most vital part in a texture.
It's the main reason the beak/grimm/western is ingame IMO.
I'm going to make a tutorial to show you all.

But what about with the valve worthy texture?
He's being sarcastic. He doesn't want to give away his motion blur sekrit.

Now what does it look like after you applied your instant Valve-quality filter?
Dammit, ninjaed.

[QUOTE=A_Guardian;33909924]But what about with the valve worthy texture?[/QUOTE]
that is it suprisingly, I know it looks rushed (because it is, actually) but converting it to a VTF makes the texture more valve likable it seems.
(Kinda like coating it in liquid cat nip all over it for the TF2 team)
what you see as "Doc Alloy's" is actually the "Valve worthy" on the texture, just the VTF corrects it for you.
pretty nifty IMO.

[QUOTE=Blitz n' Barrag;33907599]Any chance of you ever releasing that?[/QUOTE]

It's definitely looking much better. The grip tape on the bat should be given a little bit of shaping, it's far too straight and perfect, or you could make it look similar to the wrapping on the metal bat.
Just thought up a new idea

Yeah but I have to fix the normal map. I forgot to put the info in the vmt. I'll post it by tomorrow
[QUOTE=blaholtzen;33909132]much better shape, now just bend the sides in, make it follow the shape of the face more
noooo! now you messed up the shape again[/QUOTE]
[img]http://www.buddytv.com/articles/mythbusters/images/jamie-hyneman-4.jpg[/img]
The bottom half of the mustache is not at all close to anywhere near to being done. The geometry is really hard to work with because almost no primitives are conducive to the shape.
Jamie's mustache gets wider and thicker as it goes down, pretty much the opposite of the first model. Just to be safe, though, I have saved a copy of the first one in case the second one goes all wrong.
In any case I need more polygons
That was using Valve's own textures, just to see how it looked. How is this? I made these from scratch.

It's supposed to be a rubber tube. I played with the idea of making it look more like rubber by making the edges not quite as perfect and little wavy, but that make it look like tape. I dunno what to do about it.
