[QUOTE=Shadoxa;37106498]Engineer took his motto of "Use more gun" a little too far this time.
It reminds me of this Sniper rifle which has an old camera converted into a scope.

May I interrupt with a brief, off-topic rant? How the hell did steampunk monopolize the market for anachronistic sci-fi? I think steampunk can look pretty damn sweet, occasionally, but the extreme specificity of 'Victorian era sci-fi with gratuitous brass and clockwork' gets really boring the five hundredth time one encounters it. Where are all the cyborg cossacks, dystopian fascist Aztecs and intergalactic Bedouins?
okay so here's the box cutter now, please give any suggestions, even little nitpicky ones

Stereotypes.
I recall that engineer as being a German mechanical genius from a wealthy family, so having him as a facist robot aztec wouldn't work.

well the further back you go the more and more you have to suspend disbelief.
A better colour than a bright green? Maybe something similar to cream spirit.

The slit where the blade comes out is way too narrow for a practical box cutter, generally they will have enough room just so it doesn't get stuck when trying to draw it or retract it. Pretty sure you could pull that off with just the texture and not need to model a little of the interior of the box cutter.
Also, there's no separation of the 2 pieces of plastic that make the body of the box cutter. There are screws on those things for a reason. You're supposed to be able to open them up so you can replace the blade if it gets dull.
After my last job requring me to use a box cutter and tapegun for 8 hours a day in a warehouse, I'd say that I know enough about boxes and their cutters :v:
[QUOTE=Shadoxa;37107458]A better colour than a bright green? Maybe something similar to cream spirit.[/QUOTE]
I wanted it to be a noticeable and unique color because it's much smaller than other knives and needs to be able to stand out.

I have one rather enormous nitpick; The knife looking way too modern to fit the 60s esthetic. I'm not an expert on box cutter history, but I think something similar to [URL="http://chuckspurplemartinpage.com/oldknife.jpg"]this[/URL] would be more appropriate. However, since nobody seems to mind, since you've liked and gone with this design, and since changing it would literally force you to start over from scratch, I think you can safely disregard this.
I have two minor nitpicks as well: The bloodstains look a bit odd, and isn't the longer side usually the sharp one on that kind of knife?

Hm? Changing the Engineer from American to South american isn't more far-fetched than changing him from American to German, is it? Meh, never mind, this specific example isn't really important. I just get a mildly annoyed by all kinds of random stuff being steampunked.
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;37107442]well the further back you go the more and more you have to suspend disbelief.[/QUOTE]
When you've gone all the way to clockwork battlemechs, I don't think going a few steps further is going to change the plausibility factor very much.
Yay, I'm being a douche who argues with everyone. Here, have a baby platypus as compensation.

Still basecolours like the rest of the set, and i'm going to flip over the Gravity Boosters pack or something to stop it clipping with rocket launchers.
Blaholtzen's going to be texturing this set.

It looks too silly, if he were going to space (which i think the set is based off), he's gonna die.

It clips with his fingers pretty bad because the animations weren't meant for something so thick and I chose to adjust it for the optimal first person view.

It's small because A) it hides his eyes that way, and B) it's the monkeynautics soldier set so it's one of poopy joes spare helmets, which is implied in the name "Poopy Doe's Dome" so it's not going to fit a human properly anyway.

The crease that separates the plastic parts does not seem very visible at all. I can kinda see it on the near side, but beyond the slide it's as if it's non-existent.
Also, the grips on the slide are very...subtle. It doesn't look like I'd be able to have my thumb get a good grip on it at all, it'd likely slip over it while trying to draw or retract the blade unless I pushed it on the side of the slide, which is not very comfortable or natural of a motion.
