[Weapon] Artillery Shell IED [WIP]

[Ironcomatose]

You got it cheesy, but can you also actually find Waldo himself? (He's there)

I see him on the left side. In between the tress in the fields

[Chuc]

EOD: Just the import stuff

[EOD_Security-2252]

I pm'ed you the link Chuc.
And good job Iron. He's actually 20 px high. I had a pain trying to get him a size where you could still see his figure, but he was small enough to hide.

How's this coming along, you find anyone to put animations to it or anything like that?

[EOD_Security-2252]

I have no idea how it is coming. I don't know how to animate, but I'll try almost anything (key word almost!)
Right now I'm kind of waiting for Chuc's feedback. I sent him a PM with the dl link and he's not yet replied by PM or by the thread.
So, yeah, I'm kind of waiting, but I'm staying busy. I wrote up a notepad for a thread of another wip weapon I've thought would be nice (it's a secret for now as to its identity).

[Chuc]

lol I love to be the guy on whom people are nervous because of my impending judgment..

Anyway I havn't had an opportunity to test it out in the editor, but I will get it up to scratch animation-wise. Its to the discresion of the rest of the dev team as to whether we'll throw it in with the insurgents' bag of tricks.

Ye I like the look of this......

one piece of constructive critisicm i have is I think the shell texture could do with more work. The bands on the back dont look right atm and need a bit more tweaking imo.

Hers some pics for stuff you could add to make it a little more detailed....





With adding text and bands etc, some crazy brush used on the delete with a low opacity does a good job of making it look like its old and worn away....

[EOD_Security-2252]

I agree that the rings aren't the best thing in the world; however, all those pictures you posted are pictures of relatively unabused artillery shells. This artillery shell is supposed to be a shell that an Insurgent has had in his little buried cache (as many Insurgents do) for months and just now he's decided to push the dust away and make an IED. I will it into consideration though, the rings are definately at the top of my list of things to fix if the Devs reject it.
Also, as for my next project idea, here is a hint/riddle -
What verb often involves cursing or explitives after the act?

[DeltaFart]

dying?

[Scot]

Noob tube?

[EOD_Security-2252]

Mmmm, no. Not a shotgun or a grenade launcher (I know of no other 'noob tubes')
Also, you will probably curse after dying from this weapon.
Don't think about PR. It is something people do in regular everyday civilian life.

[steve_06-07]

Super soaker flamethrowers?

[Scot]

A flying poo infested with Aids?

[EOD_Security-2252]

Well, you guys must live pretty interesting lives that you encounter that in everyday life. The verb is something you do all by yourself, someone could make you do it, but most often you and you alone are involved in the verb.

[red.murder1]

Masturbating?

[DeltaFart]

OHHHHH I WAS SO GOING TO SAY THAT!!!
Picking my nose?

[EOD_Security-2252]

Well murder, I'd most definately have to say a resounding NO! And you might curse after picking your nose, I don't really know consider how I haven't done it in a long time. <-- Yay tissues, great invention that took very little thought.
The act usually occurs while one is in motion.
Chuc, save me! This game is getting out of hand and I can't reveal my next project's identity yet!

[red.murder1]

Alright then it has to be taking a ****
