[QUOTE=Ruskeydoo;39064817][IMG]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8213/8334853730_a324534169_b.jpg[/IMG] Just got the map and flame effect to go! Off to go and see the inlaws for a few days. Totally going to spend my whole time thinking about this...[/QUOTE] Looks a bit like cornrows at the moment

[QUOTE=Uzbekistan;39064836]Looks a bit like cornrows at the moment[/QUOTE] I was thinking more statue of liberty :)

okay im not mixing it but its really not looking that good. ignore the random colored patches these arent fixable. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/TyfWF.jpg[/IMG] and also i need ammo boxes and health packs. also robotic goggles, robotic bongos and robotic orchestrina for this. otherwise it will be pointless.

I thought Robovision would just be a green screen a-la-Matrix with completely irrevelant info displayed on it. Well, that'd make more sense, I believe.

Do you think this reskin of the proof of purchase is worth submitting? [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6993235/Experimental/Gears%20and%20cogs/veteran%20of%20the%20robot%20wars.png[/img] I did it purely out of curiosity of how it'd turn out. I must say, not that good at all thanks to the terrible UV it has.

[QUOTE=Aibaleet;39059592][t]http://i.imgur.com/YnRrh.png[/t] Done, more or less.[/QUOTE] looks great! I think it might look a bit better painted if those two bars across the top either stayed grey or were a lighter color than the rest of the hat when painted but I dunno

I actually really like it.

[QUOTE=psyke;39068145]It could stand to be a little more robot-like i think[/QUOTE] That's the best I can get it without actually remodelling it. So if anyone actually wants to do it, be my guest as I'm ditching that texture.

[QUOTE=Old Hermit;39060510]I colored the Steam Captain for concept purposes, up for grabs if anyone wants it: [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/102054761/Steam%20Captain%20Colored.png[/t][/QUOTE] I have the same thing on my Le Inspectuer! I'll make some adjustments to mine.

[QUOTE=testinglol;39067109]and also i need ammo boxes and health packs. also robotic goggles, robotic bongos and robotic orchestrina for this. otherwise it will be pointless.[/QUOTE] Just so everybody knows, I claimed the Health Packs a while back. Just checking.

[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;39069289]Have a quick concept [img]http://horobox.reager.org/u/Ubermunchkin_1357175268.png[/img] There's a heavy head file you can use in the Source Filmmaker files[/QUOTE] Human killers for the bots.

Added some colors to the plunger. I've also talked to Matt and I'm going to update the model with his changes. [img]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/preview_plunger3.jpg[/img] (Texture not final, model will be changed a bit)

[QUOTE=Uzbekistan;39064836]Looks a bit like cornrows at the moment[/QUOTE] Speaking of which, is the Reggaelator under way at all? [QUOTE=dongalator;39062874]ok i did some of the base colors of the hat. [t]http://puu.sh/1IlL4[/t] its obviously not finished. i need to do the brush strokes, rust, paint chips and metal seams. any suggestions on the base colors? something too dark or too bright? needs a new color? i think it reminds me of ronald mcdonald.[/QUOTE] Is the ball going to be a light bulb, or a ball of metal? [QUOTE=Ax3l;39062370]Maybe they are made out of polystyrene and just painted to look robotic :v:[/QUOTE] Stealth Steeler: "Has back-stabbing lost its charm? Is sneaking too simple?

[QUOTE=Cobaltcakes;39055991] Something like this? [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/QDKuX.png[/thumb] (Sorry, got a lil lazy on this one. Quality suffered in the process.)[/QUOTE] I think it should be a cassette tape. Like an audio book.

[img]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/preview_plunger3.jpg[/img] (Texture not final, model will be changed a bit)[/QUOTE] You know what really tickles my fancy for this update? Taking the crummy, simple mesh hats in TF2, and turning them into complicated and prettier models that actually would need an LOD. I thought about this also while making my Halo [B][SUP][SUP]EDITED:[/SUP][/SUP][/B] Oh, and robo-plunger looks good by the way. Did I forget to mention that? It looks good!

[img]http://i.imgur.com/TaDJz.png[/img] Just wanted to compile and see how it's turning out so far; I'm fairly content with how it's looking so far and now on to texturing it (hope I make the deadline regh)

is neo planning to submit the bodygrouped bots to valve?

[QUOTE=Hell-met;39073192]is neo planning to submit the bodygrouped bots to valve?[/QUOTE] lol no, maybe if Valve gave out the bots source files. these are made of decompiled and unprofessionalism.

[thumb]http://i.imgur.com/P0kly.png[/thumb] Feel free to give little pointers. EDIT: Actually, maybe I should've made the nose a little pin thing too.

[QUOTE=NeoDement;39073573]lol no, maybe if Valve gave out the bots source files. these are made of decompiled and unprofessionalism.[/QUOTE] What could it hurt? I mean, if you contribute it along with the wave of robot hats, maybe it'd make Valve do one of their own. Or use your "unprofessional" version. They've made worse decisions in the past

[QUOTE=light dasher;39073761][thumb]http://i.imgur.com/P0kly.png[/thumb] Feel free to give little pointers. EDIT: Actually, maybe I should've made the nose a little pin thing too.[/QUOTE] Evolved the design a bit. I feel like I want to make this, but it's open to the original creators, if they're watching.

[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57186256/WIPs/robo%20flamenco%20texture%20wip.png[/img] Probably going to tone down the gray bits.

I tweaked the edge wear on the robo-Merryweather, is it better now? [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6909475/robomerryweather4a.PNG[/IMG] Also, does this lighter color for the edge wear look better? [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6909475/robomerryweather4.PNG[/IMG]

[QUOTE=NeoDement;39073573]lol no, maybe if Valve gave out the bots source files. these are made of decompiled and unprofessionalism.[/QUOTE] oh I was thinking this could have been a good opportunity to ninja in human duck/swim/laugh animations for them

Still doesn't look like the edge wear is where it would naturally happen.

[QUOTE=ChowderBowl;39070700] Is the ball going to be a light bulb, or a ball of metal? [/QUOTE] a ball of metal. i might make some styles for it somewhere down the line

Anyone know the file path for the bot lightwarp?
