Pretty much this.

Something that looks like a Lara Croft wannabe?

are you implying girls can't wear pants? I think the model looks better with pants over a skirt anyway.

To be honest at this stage in life, I hardly see girls wear skirts nowadays.
Maybe it's where I live. Dunno.

Lara Croft wannabe. But avoiding too much butt-marking/slip-marking on it. It will still have that porn intentions if not
[QUOTE=Petachepas;40438195]Give her goddamn shorts or pants like the scout wears. A skirt on a running-jumping-with-really-opened-legs just talks about porn intentions[/QUOTE]
Yeah I'm actually curious. Wonder what that model would look like with the Scout's long pants.
[QUOTE=VietRooster2;40438287]Pretty much this.[/QUOTE]
I agree too. It's just wasting polys on a big sign that says "DON'T SEXUALISE ME" and annoys more people than it helps. I understand how people can interpret the original design as sexualised, porn-like, etc but elongating the skirt just doesn't do the job. I'd really love to see a balance between the the Lara Croft style and the original or hell, even that old short shorts and bandages design.
I'm expecting boxes galore but I really needed to get that off my chest.
as much as i love chemical alia's femcharacter versions, the only one i would really ever use in game as a model would be the fem spy.
its just too great on its own, and aparently most of the fanbase agrees.

Yeah; even if she's a 60's kinda girl, she'd probably be good in trousers. (not short-shorts; we want this to not be TOO fetishistic)

I don't know you, we've never talked or anything like that, but I will say; don't be discouraged and do what you like. You don't need validation from others if you like what you've done and had a good time at it.

Now don't go doing that NoName, you're very good and getting better with each video. So stop being a mopey pony and get back in there :P.

It's like i'm both inspired and discouraged at the same time. Confusing feels.

[QUOTE=ChemicalAlia;40433990]Both :C I actually got like 90% finished with a redone Spy model over a year ago (just needed new face flexes), then my life got super busy and I still haven't had a chance to finish it. The upkeep is pretty intensive, especially with each additional character (plus I hate working on old stuff because I constantly want to redo it). I'd love to make more of them, and would probably go with the demoman or sniper next, but there's a lot of other things I still need to focus on before I could get started.[/QUOTE]
Isn't there a regular on here or that you know personally that has the spare time that can do the facial flexes for ya? It is a community, Alia, you've given us a lot, check around to see if they'll give you some help in return.

if people ever felt discouraged at someone doing better than them, we wont ever have things like olympics, space travel or cold war.
if anything, you're in a point where you can only "go up".
Ok. We have Max's Head, his Luger, Sam's hat, the Big Gun, and their badge.
I eagerly await Sam and Max videos.

It's always hard not to feel bad after watching something truly great; it's transforming those feelings into inspiration, to strive to get as good as what you've watched, that's the hardest part :0
(but I'm sure you can do it!)

That was better than Valve's SFM animations.
[QUOTE=mphayes97;40445871]That was better than Valve's SFM animations.[/QUOTE]
It was a terrific video, to be sure, but that's a bit of a stretch.
[QUOTE=Razi The Red;40446334]It was a terrific video, to be sure, but that's a bit of a stretch.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I have to concur. I saw some spots where the animation was a bit choppy, but the overall theme and concept is what makes it good.
[QUOTE=Nonamezleft;40444425]It's like i'm both inspired and discouraged at the same time. Confusing feels.[/QUOTE]
Listen, it's perfectly normal to feel depressed, intimidated, scared, or all of the previous feelings at the same time whenever you see someone doing what you do but better. Yes, it sucks, I know, but you can only get better from practice.
An off-topic example would be whenever I play a fighting game (Let's take SSF4 as an example). I've spent a lot of time training with a few characters I decided to play, learning their movesets and getting combos drilled into my head. And then when I go online to play, I can do well. But then there are times where I will encounter someone playing the exact same character as I do, and completely stomp into the dirt with merely a scratch to their health.
Of course I would feel like a bag of shit after seeing and experiencing that. Of course I would start to question if I should give up or not. And then, of course, I become inspired by the things I've seen, and strive to improve myself to a similar standard to what I have seen and to become better at the things I have set out to do.
We may feel bad after stuff like this, but we cannot improve ourselves if we adopt the mindset of, "Oh, this guy is better than me, there's no point in doing this any more." We need to accept people can be better than us, learn from example, and practice what we have set out to do until we can reach a similar level.
Oh, and I want to apologise for what me and the others did on your latest video comments. I cannot help shake the feeling that we might have taken it a bit too far. Sorry.

Yeah, the animation in it was superb, but it was also a little too "animated." (english language, gotta love it)
Valve's animations are usually more human and understated in the motions, that one was more cartoonish and dynamic and looked a bit odd as a result.
Still fantastic, the lighting and camera direction was out of this world compared to other fan-made SFM videos.
