I feel like you went a little too far on the detail spectrum for this one. Smooth out the black finish a bit, and dull the wood or at least use closer colors, the current ones conflict too much.
The barrel and the base should match better.

Your edgehihglights are a bit off, too soft and smudgy, also the depth of the texture could be way better, such as making the barrel under the heatguard darker than the heatguard itself, make things pop.
The current colors also feel too bland ordinary gray and brown, got some interesting hues in there
Also some of your details are in odd places like the thing on the bottom of the handle, that will only be seen when the weapon is dropped so bother having it?
And that large screw on the side looks a bit out of place honestly.
Remember when I posted that video of the fixed Demo animations. I made another attempt at fixing them

Guys, i downloaded this file sound mod [url]http://tf2.gamebanana.com/sounds/18819[/url] and i noticed the Victory and Loss sounds are not playing. They are on the correct paste, i think. Can anybody help the creator?
[QUOTE=DatGman;39597697]well, it's a cane, it's pretty simple, probably best i could do is give it more of a broken wood look.[/QUOTE]
With the wood chips you got going you're set on model detail
You're trying to force things, never force detail when there's none to be had. If it's a cane, it's a cane
[QUOTE=dongalator;39595767]so i did the texture for my candy grenades
[IMG]http://puu.sh/22Od6[/IMG]
any suggestions? i'm not sure about adding brush strokes, since i assume that means its painted. and this is candy, so its not painted.
edit:

They look like those cheap crackers you find at Poundland

Most notable thing I need to do is to define the lines better and get some sharper transitions, It's all too soft atm
One thing you'll need to keep in mind when critting this is that svdl wants him looking relatively young (wich i agree suits pyro) something in between scout and the other classes, so things like mouth lines and stubble needs to be kept quite subtle[/QUOTE]
Taking a close look at the Pyros front shot with the other classes, his ears look too small and elf shapped. It's small even if compared with Engie's. Also, his head is not as much symetric as the other characters (eye's pose, nose size, ear position and mouth look outta place for me). Maybe that's what was bothering be about his human head...
I know it's not suppose to be a realistic head, but it looks diferent compared with the other characters head simetry.
Also, I like the idea of Pyro been a yougster, like Scout. Really suits his personality.
If we are going ahead on his head texture (and can do something creppy outta it), try some burn scars and maybe a lazy eye :3
Svdl just sent me these

One thing you need to keep in mind is that since the Pyro is constantly wearing his mask, his skin tone should be paler than the other classes who are out in the sun. I notice that the blemishes are kind of hinting at that, especially the nose and lips, but the main color of his skin is too tan. He'll probably have been exposed to flames and smoke a lot, so a dirtier face might match as well, unless you want to stick closer to the concept art. And yeah, the transitions from the different parts of his skin tone is very soft. He seems to be lacking noise, which from the pictures of the other classes like Scout there seems to be a tiny bit of.
The upper lips are way to wide at the sides, lips normally peak at the centre, right now it looks really out of place
[img]http://puu.sh/22Zam/df37b1c972[/img]
Did a few adjustments to face, ears and lips. should have a face more in line with the rest of the cast now.
If something looks off still, be sure to point it out.

Whoa someone's making an unmasked Pyro with actual facial expressions? How late am I on noticing this one? It's looking pretty damn good.

With the way that Pyro's voice lines are made, it'd be impossible to make them form coherent thoughts in every line unless it's complete gibberish.
The Hadouken taunt is a pain sound and "Go right" mashed together, for instance.
he should just mumble everything :v:
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;39599522]he should just mumble everything :v:[/QUOTE]
At the volume that Pyro speaks at, it'd be incredibly difficult to have such audacity and still be incomprehensible through mumbling without simply saying gibberish. Part of the reason why mumbling is so difficult to understand is because of the relatively-low volume at which it's spoken.
Even if you just make a moshpit of words, like Boomhaur from King of the Hill, that still forms incomprehensible statements when the game splices the lines together for some of the Pyro's other lines.

AAAAAAHgoright!
nah I meant like Frankenstein-esque grunts, bad word choice
To be honest, I think a majority of the Pyro's mumbling is understandable.
I'd think it'd be a good idea if there was an alternate version with some sort of facemask/respirator, that way the original pyro voicelines can be kept with no real issues regarding lipsync.

it's okay to take some liberties
I always thought Pyro would be British. I guess Killing Floor did that for me.
We could take the face into a different direction
