[QUOTE=sirfrootcup;39524017]Actually I posted robo lucky shot a couple 10 pages or so back. Little LATE! [IMG]http://i.minus.com/jnu31oPJ5M2xz.png[/IMG] Cuntsman talked to me about it. and I needed to find original creator for permission. But [B][U]ZombiPlastiClok you are still free to do it.[/U][/B] [/QUOTE] Aight, boss [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/c71hm8k.png[/IMG] I'll contact the creator before I go any further [B][SUB][SUB]EDIT:[/SUB][/SUB][/B] Okay! So Greenbomber, the guy who made the Lucky Shot, hasn't been online in over a month :suicide: That being said, I'm just going to take the approach I took with the Dangeresque 2.0: Keep going until someone tells me to stop. I'd be fine with the robo Lucky Shot staying mod-only, anyway
[QUOTE=Sharc;39523894]Robo Flamboyant Flamenco dropped off the face of the earth. :suicide:[/QUOTE] It's still here. Just need to get permission from the original creator.
How about a robotic Last breath,Made man,soviet gentleman,fukuugashima,fez,marauder,vilain's veil,party phantom and some others! Edit:Why dumb?
[QUOTE=Pikmin Master;39524661]It's still here. Just need to get permission from the original creator.[/QUOTE] That shouldn't be a problem. I've already talked to Ritz because he also made the Prancer's Pride and he's cool with that. If you need help contacting him, let me know.
[QUOTE=Batmans;39525717]How about a robotic Last breath,Made man,soviet gentleman,fukuugashima,fez,marauder,vilain's veil,party phantom and some others! Edit:Why dumb?[/QUOTE] Last Breath was done already by Rain* As for the Fez? I dunno, maybe
I started working on the Rusted Beak thingy [img]http://puu.sh/1ZJIQ[/img] Without the glass for the bulb [img]http://puu.sh/1ZJJr[/img] *edit* Here, I have a render of the model. Any thoughts or suggestions that could possibly improve it? [img]http://puu.sh/1ZKv8[/img]

Any thoughts or suggestions that could possibly improve it? [img]http://puu.sh/1ZKv8[/img][/QUOTE] Looks a little low-poly, can I suggest maybe some bolts here and there, or is stuff like that gonna be on the texture? You could maybe put some wires going from the bulb to the eyes, or into the mask or something like that.
[QUOTE=Sharc;39523894]Robo Flamboyant Flamenco dropped off the face of the earth. :suicide:[/QUOTE] no that got submitted to us
[QUOTE=Gadget | TF2M;39526108]That shouldn't be a problem. I've already talked to Ritz because he also made the Prancer's Pride and he's cool with that. If you need help contacting him, let me know.[/QUOTE] If you were to do that, it would be much appreciated.

[img]http://puu.sh/1ZKv8[/img][/QUOTE] Make it in 'tiers' like the concept rather than one shape. So you have the face plate, a section welded on front, another section on top of that and then the bulb.
Thought I'd alter the design of the robot version of the Winter Wonderland Wrap, to make it more in tune with Napy's model. [IMG]http://puu.sh/1ZOKu[/IMG] I'm pretty sure I have university work to do, but I'd thought I'd throw in my redesign in the hope of actually being able to parody my own self-made instead of other people's.
Nothing particularly great but done nonetheless. Anyone got an idea for a name? Some ideas from me: o Platinum Party Cone o Chrome-plated Cone o Chromatic Celebration Cone [IMG]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/preview_partyhat.jpg[/IMG] (robo vs. default) Edit: I picked this one...

Way too many polies for that itty bitty thing.
[QUOTE=Dvdgg;39528123]Partytion Hat Metallic Cone [B]Third-Party Hat[/B][/QUOTE] You should definitely have called it this.
[QUOTE=LightFlock;39528869]You should definitely have called it this.[/QUOTE] That was the other one I liked most but I've thought about it for quite a while and decided against it because it is too similar to the original name. Since the hat is already not very different from the original hat I wanted at least to have a name that differs a bit more. Also it somehow sounds better to my ears. [editline]9th February 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=kenshin6;39526416]I started working on the Rusted Beak thingy...[/QUOTE] You could add some bolts/rivets/screws. Here's an example: [IMG]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/preview_rivets.jpg[/IMG]

Also it somehow sounds better to my ears[/QUOTE] U-clanka and the .exe-cutioner are both very good and clever names that are almost exactly like the original though. Stealth Steeler and Robot Running Man are good too, but Third-Party hat is closer and more clever than Platinum Party Cone (which is basically party hat with the word hat replaced with cone, and platinum in front of it).
what about Chrome Cone
[QUOTE=Batmans;39525717]How about a robotic Last breath,Made man,soviet gentleman,fukuugashima,fez,marauder,vilain's veil,party phantom and some others! Edit:Why dumb?[/QUOTE] It's dumb because all you stated was your wishlist. Create concepts for these, some of the items have also already been done.
[QUOTE=DeRosaJ;39513243][img]http://i.imgur.com/7GIY6W8.png[/img] Anyone know why this is happening? It seems to do the compiling process just fine but shows the big error model as shown instead of my item[/QUOTE] I keep getting the same error whenever I try to compile my model with the importer. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I greatly appreciate the feedback. I started working on the changes suggested and this is what I have so far [img]http://puu.sh/205PS[/img] I'll add bolts/rivets in later.
How close is it to done?
are those chamfers cause they're too small also make sure the rods go into the cylinder at a tangent
Cant wait to try all of those. Im pretty sure they will be useful inside and outside TF2
I finally listened to the Kritzkast episode with Robot Boogaloo, and I was delighted when the Bot Dogger and the Ramless Repository were mentioned (albeit the Ramless was somewhat offhanded) Also Cuntsman, you're a pretty funny dude.
After talking to pie for a little bit to try to get a grasp for how this robotic stuff works, I deleted what I already had and started over. This is my current progress, I just hope this is what is being looked for. [img]http://puu.sh/20dOJ[/img] I think rivets should be textured close to the hard edges and I have yet to add bolts to other certain parts. Also note that the "nose" part is slightly bent (probably cant be noticed in the render)
Maybe try to make the shape more interesting. Here's a simple idea that could be developed further: [IMG]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/rustedreak.jpg[/IMG]
Make the second style of the beak with red-light eyes.

An exhaust pipe perhaps? Coiled/electromagnet?
