I was thinking more Sniper SMG and custom animations as the Scout doesn't have an SMG outside of cut-content.

I dunno if Sniper SMG animations will work since the Sniper's SMG magazine is in the front while the MAC-10's magazine is in the middle. So I think it can only be custom reload animations.

I imagine it would be a simple tweak to the existing animations and moving the grip to the magazine but that's miles away, I'm more interested in criticism and getting the model complete before even thinking about animations.

Its up to animator to make it much like TF2 style if someone good claim it i can record my self doing this taunt for all 9 classes for reference.
Claimable!
I think this one is a more timely example:

yeah i understand but i just anwser on other guy question :)
Arms Race! Is that going to happen this year?
[QUOTE=Sims_doc;52164220]Arms Race! Is that going to happen this year?[/QUOTE]
Unless someone steps forward and organizes the whole thing it's not gonna happen.
I was interested in hosting it, making a logo/website for it, to step it up from the previous years, but given the lack of posts here and submissions on the workshop lately I'm not expecting lots of interest in it and rather invest my time in other projects. People are still working on Jungle and Frontline submissions as well as other projects. You are free to convince me otherwise but at the moment my incentive to work on an Arms Race is rather low.
Verno already said he's not interested in hosting another one. So, if there's any volunteers to set it up, go ahead!
Let's have a poll:
[B]Would you participate in another Arms Race?[/B]
[img]https://facepunch.com/fp/ratings/tick.png[/img] Yep!
[img]https://facepunch.com/fp/ratings/cross.png[/img] Nope
Well on the subject of Arms Race, I might as well resurrect an old handgun I was working on

Colt 747, a weapon idea coined by Dane the Engineer Main.
If we're doing pistols, I've got this up for grabs~!

I've tried to make it more believable as a melee weapon. Better or worse?

Is this for a taunt or weapon? Because here's to hope that it's the Chain Hook equivalent.

Honestly defeats the point of a whip if you're just gonna wrap it up and bludgeon them with it.
What you had before was on the right track, but you needed to extend the actual whip part so that it was longer and could still be feasibly used like a whip:

I had tried something like that. It either looks unnautral in firstperson or thirdperson. I'll give it another try.
[t]http://manschitz.com/projects/tf2/preview_whip4.jpg[/t]
I'd have it droop a tad more so its not standing up too straight, then give it some holy mackerel styled jiggle-bones. But otherwise that looks good.

looks way to thin and fragile compared to your average weapon's bulk.
Maybe something is going to happen but I cannot predict when.

Will it be themed like last year in arms race 2. I thought that was awesome.

somone said it well, it's lacking bulk. the themes of the grordbort weapons, i have always felt are way underrated. grordbort weapons capture in amazing detail TF2's 1950s theme, and what they considered to be the future technolgies, fitting very well of the TF2 world; albeit them being spacey weapons.
I would say the big things *In my opinion* to focus on, is avoiding the overdone cartoony feel that was done with the C.A.P.P.E.R. (it was a pretty good weapon, but a bit too "colorful cartoony" that didnt meet the "tf2 cartoony" feel) and focusing on retrofuturistic aspects, as well as traces of steam punk elements.
I think the steampunk tiny features would help bring bulk to the weapon, and not make it so bland.
Ray gun demonstrating steampunk use of steam-esc contraptions. (notice the steel pipe usage, and the red canister esc part above the grip; very commonplace tools)

Example of steampunk items. Notice the added cosmetics, like the spiral-esc contraptions and other doo-daas. Eliminate the use of gears in your design in order to help perpetuate the idea of "the future"

buck rogers, a very old tv show, set in mind some pretty good ideas of what people in the past thought the future would be. If you ever run out of ideas of inspiration, try just googling some Buck Rogers stuff
[url]http://s94.photobucket.com/user/maxspr1/media/Props/BuckRogers2_zpsfc1fd596.jpg.html[/url]
other 1950s types use scale-esc shapes to make the gun look more "monstrous" and almost fish like to bring about feelings of "inhuman" I would suggest avoiding them, as they are not my forte, and they were designed to fit the role of a non-human weapon, such as aliens and such, not so much future human esc.

Ref of the righteous bison. Literally, i think they weta workshop made the epitome of what retro futuristic weapons should look like very well.

Sorry this is so much, just wanted to give you some good feedback so you have some good insights. And remember, i feel strongly about these opinions being all "how it is", but remember they are just my opinions. youre doing good, keep on trucking :)

Alright! Increased the blocks overall bulk to match the fore-grip and grip.

my man you got a bunch of suggestions just go read those and articulate for a little while
give your concept some nuance and detail, give it some of that grordbort VIBE
