unrelated but I really want to make this :o

[Omninerd]

Since you guys are talking about brushes and programs, I use Photoshop for drawing. Until now I tried making shadows or darker areas with either getting darker colors with low opacity and by using the burn tool. Which one do you guys think is the best way? For me, the burn tool gives more of a TF2 lighting feeling, but idk.

Also, up to now I've used like Brush, Sponge and Burn tool, besides the pen. Do you guys recomend any other tool when making concepts? Black outerlines are good or is it better to use colorful ones?

Thanks in advance.

You're better off using the HSB sliders, b for brightness if I recall... never use dodge/burn for values.

You might as well pour over this: [url]http://androidarts.com/art_tut.htm[/url]

[QUOTE=Dark One;44233184]this is just me, but you can model why can't you just do it yourself overall the geometry isn't that complex with a few exceptions to that cable and the front section.

then you've got the tricky thing of finding someone to texture it.[/QUOTE]

Confidence problems, I guess :l
Asides from that, I'm trying to get myself busy with uni work that's probably going to bury me if I don't focus on it, and although it really isn't too hard to model it, I'm more concerned time-wise.

Before I go and remove 154 tris so it falls under the 1400 limit, how does this look?

It looks like it just goes over the default one though.

Remember the Spore Launcher from HL: Opposing Force?
[video=youtube;kOBqpLnP3TE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOBqpLnP3TE[/video]
Yeah.

(Still looking for the appropriate sounds and ideas for the projectiles)

[Metaru]

Have you tried using a replica of the original bugs that that thing fired?

[Vincentor]

[QUOTE=Metaru;44238908]Have you tried using a replica of the original bugs that that thing fired?[/QUOTE]

I forgot to mention that its not aimed to be like the original creatures, I refered to Opposing Force because the idea was quite similiar.
Also, similiar to this: [T]http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090705144222/half-life/en/images/a/a1/Spore_Launcher.jpg[/T]
Not the Hornet Gun. You feed it some kind of slime balls which you can shoot.

ohh, is that custom animation?

I wish more guns used custom animation, they really spice things up.

[FiveEyes]

So I did a thing.

the american flag patch is probably a bad idea, valve has shown dis-concern for having it on items because they don't want to change the colors of it for teams. the dappers topper is a semi-relevant example.

That patch is so small that I doubt it's an issue.

the dapper topper is the only example I can think of and things have changed notably since then (3d glasses)

however american flags are super boring and he should probably make a more interesting patch design yeah

On a sidenote, does anyone know what the song is called?

Make it team colored or use gray as normal style?

The rough circle around the scout logo looks really bad. I'd replace that with a clean circle.

Well, I would model it myself but that would just create another storm.. and it isn't likely that anyone here will pick it up they tend to ignore most requests if you look back at the previous pages and threads you'll see that patten .

so it shouldn't take more than an hour or two for you to complete a basic mesh with a bit of detail.
