[QUOTE=Mbbird;48511690]Ugh, okay to get through the mob of opinions, let me try to make an argument: you're trying to go for the pompous, sweetass saudi king aesthetic, right? You NEED the larger pants. The demoman's stock legs are so itty bitty that grand and aggressive loadouts like this need the Tartantaloons or Double Dogs (depending on the aesthetic).
At first glance, the added noise of the Whiskey Bib is good, so I imagine it's after that first glance that the mob voted, but I think it's actually important to keep that area clear. The flat surface emphasizes the height and width of the demoman, and this is also important for the king aesthetic.
The Bib is also very clearly for the Merc's 18th century cosmetics, not the Demoman's middle east aesthetic.[/QUOTE]
I appreciate your valuable input.
To tell you the truth, I was originally planning on getting the Mann of the Seven Sees...
[img]http://i.imgur.com/H8VTOeC.png[/img]
...But I'm a bit hesitant in getting it due to its incredibly high price and the fact that I'd rather save up my metal in case some of the cosmetics I'm longing to acquire manage to get added in a future update.
While the loadout does indeed work as a Saudi King, the whole loadout is inspired to closely resemble this guy, whose songs I have stumbled upon while listening to some good old Dr. Steel:

This is why I was looking for much cheaper alternative options.
I chose the Tartantaloons due to their bagginess as well as overall largeness, just like you have pointed out, and the Whiskey Bib for its minor, yet close enough resemblance of that guy's attire.
I honestly wish I could settle for both, but of course, that isn't possible. Not to mention that I wish I could've gotten the Mann of the Seven Sees back when it had a reasonable price.
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48512659]I'd say the belts. Kingdom Hearts has many belts.[/QUOTE]
Shulk's not from kingdom hearts tho :v:
but yeah keep the belts I guess. the Boots don't really add to what you're going for compared to the belt

Last I heard, the Bioshock mustache clipped with the Demo's face. Is that still the case?
Most face items with flexes will always clip, but that's because facial flexes are almost always broken client side. Its kind of a dumb reason to not like an item because of a bug that all items have.

Eh, it just sorta bugs me. I don't use beards because the facial flexes are just so god damn bad.
I don't actually recall if the mustache on that Bioshock item suffered from clientside messups, or is actually fully static and won't move at all.
While on the topic of Demo miscs, is there anything that goes with the Juggernaut Jacket besides the Hurt Locker? It seems like these two items were basically made for one another. Double-Dog pants, maybe? Highland shoes?

Here, let me rewrite your post so the same message can be conveyed without sounding condensending and rude.
[QUOTE=Mbbird;48511690]While people seem to like the Whiskey Bib more, let me give you my opinion on the matter to see if it sways you or the people voting. I assume you're going for a Saudi King look, and IMO the thicker, baggy pants look the Tartaloons give off closer resembles the sort of pants such a Saudi King would be wearing. I'd also consider swapping it with the Double Dog pants to get a similar feel, whatever suits you.
At first glance, the added noise of the Whiskey Bib is good, which is likely why people voted on it, but I think it's actually important to keep that area clear. The flat surface emphasizes the height and width of the demoman, and this is also important for the king aesthetic.

No need to describe the voters as lesser beings or any dumb shit.
I'll refrain from sounding condescending in the future.

Considering that Hurt Locker+Jugg Jacket is soo overused, I was considering this. The shoes are black to match the Bonnet(Though now I'm wondering if they should be grey to match the shoulderpads since they're not as black as the bonnet is), since the laces are orange, I feel like it really brings the loadout together nicely by using the orange of the Jugg Jacket as a linking piece.... but then I remembered that the shoes conflict with the booties, so if I ever want to use them, I have to un-equip my shoes.
I hate equip regions that conflict with gameplay.
Should I still go for it? And what should I paint the shoes if yes?
I asked this yesterday and another person now had the issue. So face flexes don't work clientside, does that mean other players see the facial items without clipping?
[QUOTE=Marden;48515449]I asked this yesterday and another person now had the issue. So face flexes don't work clientside, does that mean other players see the facial items without clipping?[/QUOTE]
Yes. One example is the Borderlands 2 'Dapper Disguise' mask for Spy. For the player (Providing it's not one of those times it actually works), it seems the flexes are muddled, or even the opposite expressions. However all other players on the server see it working just fine.
You still can get the facial flexes to work if Tf2 feels like it.
It's really magical just staring at my Heavy for 10 minutes, spamming voice lines and watching his beard move.
Yes it's that magical and rare now.
My new, not too original loadout and a display of boneitis:

What shoes are those?

I like this loadout for some reason;
[img]http://i.imgur.com/mJE2ahb.png[/img]
I'm planning on buying a Disco Beatdown unusual effect hat for the Scout. I'm going for a bit of a super-hero thing but I don't know which hair-do would fit better.
Agree for Greased lightning (paintable, looks a bit "stiff")
[IMG]https://i.gyazo.com/15a1926b19e4b1363b92c1467f3428a1.png[/IMG]
or Disagree for Pomade Prince (not paintable, but more super-hero-ish)
[IMG]https://i.gyazo.com/9503bdfdb798b5ead9f5a1239644b917.png[/IMG]
or dumb for something else
I mighty big thanks to Croc Shock for humbly giving me the much desired Mann of the Seven Sees!
You're the true meaning of a real MVP!
But anyway, if I were to go for that Demo loadout, what color would I use for the shoes? Or should I use an entirely different Misc?

It's fine as it is IMO
[QUOTE=Demo-the-man;48518669]It's fine as it is IMO[/QUOTE]
Is there anyway around having to un-equip them every time I want to use the booties or no?

Snake Jr. anyone?
That's clearly just Raiden with his hair dyed brown and a cheap plastic eyepatch from a children's pirate costume.

It's rare, but I think the bandana actually looks better in black in this case. Love it. I'll have to do this some day. Stealth scout is the best kind of scout.

Black does look ok on the Thirst Blood, but in my opinion slate just looks cooler with that loadout.
TBH, IIRC both SS and BB had navy bandanas.
