This is all I could come up with, the pink is dull enough to work on the eyes, but honestly the two different colors are such an eyesore together. I'm sticking with regular non glowing green on my default loadout.

Even added the shadow and the Pink and Lime text because I have a good taste.

tldr of this experiment: make the loadout that looks the least bad, has the smallest paintable textures, is already pink/lime, or discover one of the the only two aesthetically valid pink/lime loadouts.
this is very valuable and visible lesson hidden inside a joke.
it'd be better if we just had to make loadouts using one or the other paint, having to use both defeats the purpose of finding good in the paints because theyre both very contrasting colors that to not compliment each other in any way

that's also why it's funny
The only acceptable answer: Find something with a fading paint texture

That alien is higher than a kite.
Can we include a third (perhaps unpainted/unpaintable) misc, so long as we still include the one pink and one lime? Would help tie together some themes in my mind.
is this any good? Guess I'll use it as an entry then

Enlighten me, I have yet to see a loadout that achieves exactly that (not to say any are bad, it's just that, well, they're pink and lime loadouts).
or are we talking about subjectively here?

They exist. They have to. What I'm implying is that it is revealing that in all the thousands of cosmetic lime-pink combinations possible, there seems to be only a couple seriously, objectively, aesthetically valid possibilities... and we haven't found them :v:
I actually own a lime Hazmattenhatten and I think it looks pretty neat.

I'm trying to kind of make it a point to actually have the lime and green show, there's a ton of cosmetics that hide them. It's hard.
It seems that what works best is the already [i]radical[/i] Scout stuff and electronics.
