Thanks, yeah its not shaded that's just diffuse+ AO on the viewport i am trying to get it ingame though for the viewmodel i don't know if that'll be possible for me.
just replace the FAN's c model. Tada, you're done!
I think that you should do primary secondary and meele. hats are overrated if you do win (which i hope you do) eventually everyone will have all your weapons but not everyone will have your hats. I just love the fan replacement and the pistol so incase you do ddecide to make one hat, please keep the fan and the pistol. I love the stuff youve done so for man, really
Yesss Ikimono c_models are a lot easyer to replace! \o/
I still have to fix the model a bit because its getting some wreid shading, work a bit more on the texture (especialy the alpha) and material, i am new to this stuff TF2 injecting models stuff.
Oh and i replaced the drink by the cirt a cola its better in most of these screenshots i am doing the taunt thus hand placement might look wrong but its fine maybe the left hand is clipping a bit on the soda can.
If Valve were to put this in game (and I think your chances would be better if you made it more unique) I hope they make the stats as if you were constantly using Crit-a-Cola (giving and taking mini-crit damage all the time without having to stop and drink anything*).
*for this weapon only. Obviously mini-crit Pistol would be too overpowered.

Well while stats aren't really the thing we ought to be discussing, I'm going to just put it out there that it's unlikely for them to make something that makes some other item completely useless in combination.
It wouldn't have to be useless, maybe drinking a crit-a-cola while using this shotgun you do CRIT damage (and take crit damage) instead of just mini-crits taking the risk/reward to the extreme.
@Zipfinator Yeah it has AO already, not enough obiviously ^^ i'll add more Ikimono Yes maybe i'll see if i have time i don't know how team color works. KhthonI agree i will add something to reload there.
Yes it its, to be honest its a FaN replacement and i don't want to change the bones or animations at all to avoid problems(and i do have because 3DS is not the 3D modeling package i use, no time to learn riging on 3DS atm) and be able to submit my items in time, this is why i kept it pretty much the same shape as the FaN.
For the pistol it was easy, but the FaN has the front part splitted for reloading so it really makes it hard to figure out a different shape that would work with the actual animations and still make sense as a gun.
Anyway the crit-a-cola on it would not give mini crits, not even all the time, simply because its an empty crit a cola.
The Scout modified his broken FaN replacing the handle by a soda can and put back together with some balck rubber band, also the shotgun is quite shorter from the original FaN as if part of it was chopped in some fight.
Valve might pick or not the shotgun, or not even one at all but i'd just be happy to getting one single item ingame it would mean a lot to me
Bonk you can't really change the drink to team color if its crit-a-cola because its always purple unless you were doing bonk in which case you could. And as for details I think the gun already looks good and is unique enough that it is different from the FaN but at the same time you know its a FaN type wep.
Jamesbond you got it there, I also think that it does differ from the FaN but I think it is good that it atleast resembles the FaN since its a new version of the weapon, i love the crit-a-cola there btw
I finnaly got the models ingame as c_models, though the pistol doesn't have ammo reload animation (i wasn't able to inject the v_models with bones working again)
Still working on the shaders.
I might make a custom ball for the BOBK! bat too...
Though i really think the pistol looks quite BAD in first perso maybe to "squarish" or too large ,horizontaly, what do you think?
Kark, a bat is a small amount larger and more noticable more often than a tiny can Scout only takes out to use infrequently and never sees again until the cool down is up.
It sticks out like a sore thumb against the TF2 background.
Allright i am running out of time and i only have one day left(tomorrow) to finish this, so i am fixing up some things and adding some detail/changes thanks to your comments ^^

-BONK Bat
Will you have a version of the Scattergun with the Bonk textures as well submitted to Valve?
I'm not sure whether I prefer the crit-a-cola texture over the bonk one :O
Maybe... not sure.
Name suggestions for the Scattergun:
Furious Fizzler
The Furious Fizzler
Fizzling Fury The Fizzling Fury
The Fizzler ('Fizzle' being the sound soda makes)
Bat names: The Atomic Punch The Atomic Bonk
Atomic Bonk
The ones in bold are my personal preferences.
First, I really like the recolor of the bat, good job.
FaN replacement names-
Carbonated Carbine The Nuclear Reaction
The Reactor
Iso-toppler
Sugar Shooter
(I also like the Fizzler and Soda Popper suggestions)
Pistol replacement-
the Winger(a non-fatal shooting is called a winging) the Messenger ("shoot the messenger" also Hermes the god with winged sandals was the Greek gods' messenger)
Hehe i was asking opinion on mines too but oh well, there's so many its hard to choose, sadly i don't have enough time to finish this as polished as i wanted, i have to leave tomorrow for a few days so i am going to post the final items in a few hours.
I think these will be the names:
FaN repalcement: Soda Popper
Pistol: The Winger
Bat: The Atomic Punch
@Slowbrah i made that version and submited it a month or two before this contest(so it can't be in used for the contest) so far it didn't get ingame,
@Cheeezy its just for the story, the Scout collects bonk soda caps to get some of the items.
I'd guess that if he makes it proper and they like it he could get it squeezed in, in the same or the later update. IIRC they even mentioned that maybe some runners up could get some of their stuff into the commin updates.
If they pick him ofc.
The 3thingy was mearly a...guideline ment to be broken if it was worth it. With the hat, it clearly is.
Hell, just look at the SentryEntry(derpderp). as All the 3lvls counted as one 1/3 models
What is that 6 pack :O
If it's just a promo thing, ignore this.
If it's a melee, consider removing the holes as it would make no sense that the Scout would have opened them if we weren't going to drink them. If it's a secondary, it makes sense.
Also, could we have an image of how you plan to use the Caps ?
The Soda caps are just as story telling in order to get these items the Scout has to collect as many as he can so it won't be an item, for the 6 pack see below.

it just has more of a dynamic look than the original
I like the shells with atomic symbols. Maybe put some extra shotgun shells on that empty gray space on the shotgun.
Because the bat is bigger, and not 50% covered by the Scouts hand.
It sticks out like a sore thumb against the TF2 background.
Of course, maybe that's what we want.

Is it just me or is your Scoutmask(The one on your avatar) in desperate need of the ScoutEmblem on the forehead? Like a true superhero.
