Try with teamcolor Is it better? [IMG]http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc398/Reaper_Hook/Color1.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=lemonade1950;35527324]I can assure you the clipping is also there on the regular grenades. When the pyro crouches, the grenades (and the bottles) clip with the ammo pouch. The bones don't line up with the coat strap, so this may create an awkward appearance if I were to move the strap to the middle of the bottle. I'll give it a shot anyway Edited: [thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32006613/Models/potions_12.png[/thumb] Note that the bottles are less shiny because for some reason the lighting in HLMV is much different than that in TF2, or something like that. But that's not what I'm showing here. Also, the strap now looks like it's stretching to fit some sort of invisible hinge around the neck of the bottle. I'm reverting it back to how it was before[/QUOTE] this is the better way to do it, however, move the middle strap down so the movement of the straps along the bottles is a nice smooth curve rather than 2 with the strap high and one with it very low

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;35528231]this is the better way to do it, however, move the middle strap down so the movement of the straps along the bottles is a nice smooth curve rather than 2 with the strap high and one with it very low[/QUOTE] Just this picture doesn't explain the situation enough. I arranged the bottles so that the bones are all at the necks, therefore, all the straps have to be there. If they don't align to the coat, then tough shit I say. It's either that or having it stretch illogically.

the straps don't have to be where the bone is, right now it's kind of jarring seeing the two straps up high and the one strap really low. I think a gradient of strap placement would look a million times nicer

[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;35528065]I am absolutely loving this - but I have a question: Would it be possible to have a glove-less version? Or would that look weird? (considering the hand grasping the medigun handle)[/QUOTE] I could, but I think he sort of needs the gloves to have enough recognizable-at-a-glance team colors during gameplay. They also keep him quickly identifiable as a class, as they're sort of the most obvious thing about his design other than the now-absent big flappy coat.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/oP38D.png[/img] this is snake (WIP of course, let's hope it turns out decent)

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Hc8BW.jpg[/IMG] i guess i need to make some modifications. Still no textures, btw.

[QUOTE=NeoDement;35528040]If you're doing paintfixes, could you use the one for the Salty Dog too? Just change the basecolor to match Valve's one, as I'm trying to convince them to turn it brown.[/QUOTE] Quickly whipped this up, thoughts?

[QUOTE=Ceiling Man;35528651] I'm tempted, but it'd probably come out crappy.[/QUOTE] i got this :P

Great, another psykelf-made. [editline]11th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Roninsmastermix;35528584][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Hc8BW.jpg[/IMG] i guess i need to make some modifications. Still no textures, btw.[/QUOTE] Dat minimal clipping.

[QUOTE=psyke;35528685]i got this :P[/QUOTE] Why do I get this feeling you have a secret hardon for ronin, and want to please him.

[QUOTE=psyke;35528685]i got this :P[/QUOTE] Why? It's already finished by your standards.

[QUOTE=Hatley;35528834]Why do I get this feeling you have a secret hardon for ronin, and want to please him.[/QUOTE] uh. he asked me to texture it prior?

[QUOTE=Ceiling Man;35528651]Quickly whipped this up, thoughts? [t]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32066954/salty_dog.png[/t] [/QUOTE]Neat!

The only transparent liquid item in TF2 is the jarate, and it's supposed to be detailled as it's a weapon. Just make it opaque, it'll look cleaner and nicer.

[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;35522076]hahahahahahahahaha [img]http://screensnapr.com/e/kky2XY.png[/img][/QUOTE] what happened to the medic model murphy gave you

Kiyoshi, if you read this: I today installed your reaninamted Pyro weapons, and they're bloody awesome. Though I have one.. well, complaint: The melee draw is too long, and you can't even see the weapon for some frames (as in, the Pyro is holding the weapon where you can't see it). Any chance you might "fix" this? Still, I love those animations.

[QUOTE=Roninsmastermix;35528584][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Hc8BW.jpg[/IMG] i guess i need to make some modifications. Still no textures, btw.[/QUOTE] No offense or anything but....This is awful. Just awful, for demo at least. I can never in a thousand years imagine him wearing a mask like that for any occasion whatsoever; plus it's more then likely to be rejected due to the teams strong stance on "Face blocking items are made exclusivley for holiday seasons....that's intentional"

if you get rid of the grate, it could be a nice executioner's hood, to not waste the model. Make a big-ol' axe with it I do agree the face covering is a little much.

But its a promise i must keep for a fan. I gave my word that i will make him a kendo set and the least i could do is make it work the best i could. If valve rejects it, at least my poor buddy knew that i tried.

Make a big-ol' axe with it I do agree the face covering is a little much.[/QUOTE] I could make a better hood honestly but i don't view it as a wasted model if valve didnt accept it. I've had far better work that has been rejected (or wasted if some may put it) that at this point, this is not an issue anymore. Besides, no point at getting attached to things. Make stuff the best you could then move on.

[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32006613/Models/grenades_bones.png[/img] These are where the grenade bones are. And this is the stretching that I previously mentioned [video=youtube;DZI5DkvxBJg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZI5DkvxBJg[/video] That being said, I still think having the strap at the neck will be better, although it doesn't attach to the belt.

the stretching of the straps looks fine to me (it adds some weight to the potions) hmm... how is the Jingle Belt attached?

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;35529475]the stretching of the straps looks fine to me (it adds some weight to the potions) hmm... how is the Jingle Belt attached?[/QUOTE] My guess is that they're attached to bip_spine_1 with jigglebones

[QUOTE=SgtR007;35529474]I honestly don't like the concept either, but I applaud your willingness to make things just to make them.[/QUOTE] Yeah at first i thought it was a good concept and it could work. Now when i'm actually making the item, it hit me that its not really a good idea to begin with. But yeah, live and we learn. It really pays to see some concept art first than actually making stuff from just your imagination.

[QUOTE=lemonade1950;35529495]My guess is that they're attached to bip_spine_1 with jigglebones[/QUOTE] would this be hard for you to do?

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;35529544]would this be hard for you to do?[/QUOTE] Probably not

You should also see about testing with different liquid opacities. Just to see if it makes an improvement.
