[QUOTE=NeoDement;26592387]Actually I'll start it tomorrow at the earliest, gotta do a banner n stuff based on the winning theme.
So please don't work on your wrench anymore if you plan on using it as an entry.[/QUOTE]
Ok. :smith:
It'll take me a while before I can work on it again anyway.
Neo, I know you've kind of adopted the contest, but I don't think it matters if somebody starts a day early. It's not a contest for who can make the best model in 30 days, it's a collaborative effort by the Emporium Community to make a theme set pack. The rules aren't that important.
It'd be better if they didn't though. I'm trying not to adopt it too much. If I was treating it like a real contest I'd make Reag start a new entry from scratch.

[QUOTE=CunningHam;26592548]That's why having electric as a theme is a horrible idea; all of these are going to be "Hurr hurr wires and duct tape and batteries!", Ramshackle home made garage shit has a wider range of expression and such, and historical stuff actually causes a lot of creativity. Hell, the funnel that is pirate theme is at least bad fucking ass.
But nope, batteries.[/QUOTE]
Please try do to more than simply attach a battery to your weapon! will be one of the rules.
If a weapon is really uncreative/boring I won't include it in the update page.

Oops didn't mean to say contest, collaboration/event is the word I'm looking for.

If you notice in an earlier post he also links to the Frontier Justice, which is supposedly a battery attached to a shotgun.

But your soup has batteries in it
I see sparks when I pee now
And that's how Sparkwire was born.

Well looks like we're having an Electrically Influenced pack as the first emporium pack!
Yep. I guess I should start on the banner art soon to catch peoples eye.
[QUOTE=NeoDement;26594028]Yep. I guess I should start on the banner art soon to catch peoples eye.[/QUOTE]
With stars, stickers and pretty electrical sparks!
I can still see "DEM" smudged on the banner.

Fucking sparewire...
First he models penises, now he goes inside urethras...
Will that rivet gun be used for the theme?
[QUOTE=Sharc;26594334]Will that rivet gun be used for the theme?[/QUOTE]
Rivet gun?
I wish it could be but it's not really electric. It's mechanical. And I won't murder it by sticking a battery to it. I will make the rivet gun before I make something for this though.

Replace air tank with round, airtank-shaped battery.
[b]TF2 Emporium's Electrically Influenced Pack[/b].
The theme is [i]Electrically Influenced Items[/i].
The main focus is on weaponry - but feel free to create anything you like (including props for maps, particle effects and of course HATS!)
If your item is a weapon, it must be able to function as a replacement for a currently existing weapon. Otherwise nobody will be able to download it. For example, don't make a Jarate/Mad Milk type item for the Spy. Things like map props are exempt from this rule.
Due to the non-competitive nature of the event, collaborations are fine.
You can enter as many things as you like. Don't rush though, quality over quantity.
Your item MUST fit TF2, and try and fit the class too (or Simski will get angry with you). Read the [url=http://www.teamfortress.com/contribute/tips.php]official style guidelines here.[/url]
Please post progress pics of your item. Posting just a finished result is no fun.
You're encouraged to be creative. For example, a [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/9/9e/Red_Frontier_Justice.png]shotgun with a battery stuck to it[/url] might pass, but meh.
On the other hand an item more like [url=http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/mrdelish_/finalblue.jpg]one of these[/url] will be much more well recieved.
If you make a good entry, it will be featured in a Fancy vs Nasty style update page. If you're not okay with this, don't enter!
If you'd like to make the page for your item yourself, you can. This is not a requirement however.
The event will most likely start sometime tomorrow (friday seems better than a thursday) and go on for 30 days, to give everyone time to enter.
These are more guidelines than anything - this isn't supposed to be a strict event.
Incoming Magnets, Servos, and Teslas

Eletrical Jarate. :v:
EDIT:
...Aaaaand I still think Cold vs. Glow would be the best option out there.

Read the [url=http://www.teamfortress.com/contribute/tips.php]official style guidelines here.[/url][/QUOTE]If I may add a suggestion for anyone lacking inspiration that sticks with the TF2 style, just open up tc_hydro and have a look around. The map is full of "Electrically Influenced" props and set pieces that should easily get those creative juices flowing.
[QUOTE=bigbadbarron;26594521]Incoming Magnets, Servos, and Teslas[/QUOTE]
I just had an idea for a servo that shoots magnet teslas.
Brb, modeling.
