[QUOTE=A_Guardian;51501008]Those are runes, which are norse.
I am no expert, but with some basic decoding using wikipedia it appears the three runes here [img]http://i.imgur.com/k2WJdPP.png[/img] spell out sky (or there abouts) so there is probably something hidden.
As I said, I am no expert, so it could be wrong on the translation.[/QUOTE]

Yes something hidden... Maybe we should ask the creator.. What's his name again....?

I just wonder what the rest says, couldn't find some of the symbols with with my basic search. Could be some are just made up. We will know more once sky tells us.

Also, starting to throw some base colors and schemes and shit on the mad maxish helmet and goggles/scarf.

Any ideas about what to do with the goggles to make them not boring? (the band is currently not even base colors)
Or, anyone willing to just texture it for me as I have never been good at doing brush strokes?

Could come with others animals variation (Monkey for instance was planned, but the nose ended up being too noisy/ a jaguar could be cool)

Also, with the goggles-

I like the second one personally, and on that one, the band could be a darker shade of grey, like the dark grey on the goggles themselves, and anything team-coloured be paintable.

I'm available to give texturing a shot!
If you're cool with this I'm totally available to chat on Steam.

you really should stop using the sharpen filter in photoshop to fake definition in your concepts. Try to learn to actually paint hard edges to your concepts instead

I guess hit me with a friend invite, but right now I am taking a whack at doing it myself as I might as well just learn how to do it.
Mostly just need a good idea of how to place the strokes and shit.
Guess its time to dig into vtfs and shit.

I know you [I]personnaly[/I] dislike that filter, but I'm really used to a certain type brush (that makes the coloring blury sadly, but more instinctive)
I don't see what is wrong on using it, since the concept get (generally) transmitted well.

But I will give a try on hard edge painting anyway.

[Duckdog]

Almost finished with this concept, criticism welcomed.

I don't think it's a "personal" taste thing, but that's irrelevant

Just try to get some sharp basecolour shapes to define the edges (you can just make those with pen tool, or however you prefer), then use your painting methods to go over them. Should make stuff like the filters a. much better shape wise, they're pretty blobby now, and b. define the edges sharper

[Radaghast]

Will give a try to that method.

The lights are far too small. Things in TF2 are big and chunky, like the characters, and all the weapons use the same sized lights.

Also, the box on top is actually a needle disposal bin, not an ice box.

Exactly, how many tris are there?

[Sinful Creature]

[QUOTE=MarcusSmith;51503425]Exactly, how many tris are there?[/QUOTE]
Judging by how the model is based off of spy_reference, an actual spy model used when making items in Blender, the tri-count should be 2946, as listed in the image.
Excuse me if I'm wrong, I just want to be a smarty-pants.

Excuse the large image, but would anyone like for me to create one of these for all classes? I wanted to make a reference sheet for the sniper that included an angle from behind. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

There are numerous reference sheets in the OP of the thread. Which include backviews

Actually I agree with him, as I expect others do too. It's a mediocre supplement for detailing-it looks sloppy and hard to read. You have a lot more control over your concept if you learn how to fill in little details manually

that one's actually pretty good, you should upload it away from the word "borderlands", no need to be copyright infringing

Minor nitpick but this vert here is sticking up a little weirdly, smooth that out and its all good [/QUOTE]

Fixed!
