[KF2] – Skin – Horzine Elite Issue 9MM

the_beat_broker

Hello! I am making a fairly straightforward blue anodized skin for the 9MM.

The skin is primarily inspired by the first reference image. I have also always liked the anodized weapon skins in CSGO so I guess it is partly inspired by those too.



In the first prototype the material appears too dark in game.



And testing it out it is not a finish that looks particularly good with any wear:

Adding vibrant green tactical-style sights helped to define the geometry of the weapon in the first-person perspective:



"Unpainting" the barrel also contributes to defining the geometry in the first-person perspective. I also have been gradually tweaking the specularity and gloss of the paint to try and achieve a more vibrant material.

Nice)))

Thank you! At this point I'm mainly working on the small details. I have neatened up some of the unpainted areas (the selectors/switches on the top), and added the Horzine Logo.

Haven't really changed a lot (basically haven't changed anything!) but I think I just got in in time for the deadline... Here is the steam workshop submission.
