all that needs is for the "stuff" to be replaced with better stuff, and for you to edit the hat achievement...really now. are there any hat based achievements?

Those are achievements that gives you a hat, and that doesn't require that you already own a hat to achieve them. I feel that is quite different from an achievement that requires that you already own a (presumably) randomly dropped hat.
So I agree with him.
Before I wimped out, I was going to make a pack rather similar to this. Yours would have been far better though. I thought of a misc item to go with a blowpipe. Have a poison arrow frog peeking out of his breast pocket. It could add a slow effect! I was thinking team yellow. It sort of fits with your theme, if you had time and interest in adding a fourth piece.
A Poison Tree Frog? that sounds like a good idea, maybe make it resting on top of the Lucky Skull misc item.
I don't like the poison darts as a misc item as they're a very boring item when paired with the Huntsman or Sniper Rifle rather than the dart gun.
A poisonous frog would probably be more funny and would be less bound to the dart gun.
Then again, the contest states that the ideas have to be your own right?
Hmm
Nice everything...
But the Deadliest Fetch achievement is pretty much impossible.
Not really. Play 2fort on a low population server. It's not any harder than, say, Crazy Ivan. Which I still don't have. Because 90% of maps don't have water. Fuck you valve.
Sorry, what was I saying?
Anyway I feel less bad about being off-topic here because this shit honestly looks ready to be in-game. I don't remember seeing an answer on this, I might have just missed it, but did you decide about replacing the ejected shells with ejected corks?
Karkasmolenklok - Have some faith man, I got it covered :poly124:. And yes I did take the shell casing out but I gave up on changing it to a cork after an hour or so messing around with it.
Tad-Long - A little poison dart frog does sound like a pretty neat idea. No time for it now though. You should still consider doing it for a fun little side project, I would be curious to see how it turns out.
Khthon - Hmm I think changing the "Crocodile Dunpee" would make it too similar to the "Rock out With Your Croc Out" then. But thanks for he idea.
jgoodroad - Yea, the "stuff" will be replaced eventually. As for the hat achievement... I will consider changing it when I update the image again. But no promises.
Galago - I didn't think about adding them to the sniper item until after I got all my stuff compiled. After that I just needed to move on and finish the other items.
A. If you ask a child to draw an aligator or crocodile whats the first color they are going to reach for...green. Even if it may not be what they are in real life it is how they are represented in most forms of media so its just the common mental piture most people will have of them. A good example would be animated films such as Peter Pan, All Dogs go to Heaven, and The Princes and the Frog.
B. Making it brown made it less recognizable as a crocodile.
C. Most of the sniper, including the razorback, is already brown.
But thanks for catching that and keeping me honest.
Like you said, most people already think that alligators are green.
TF2 isn't a game for historic accuracy anyway, so the crocodile being green fits TF2's usage of stereotypes better :P

You sir, win with infallible logic.
But out of query, I'd like to see a version with the green undertone and brown highlights.
p.s. that crock image someone posted is brown with black under tones. Which is what most crocks color scheme is. Yellow + black make a very convincing green so yea...

Alligators actually do have green parts, their topside tends to fall further into the blackish brownish range but it has green hues, and its underside tends to be very yellow, but look at the spot where they meet and you'll see that they're actually quite green.
Perhaps if you at some later time feel like it, you can make team-colored crocs.
The Blue team's croc remains the same color, and the red team's croc gets slightly more brown :O

I'm confused, that or you mixed your phylum of animal.
I imagine the Sydney probably does less damage, but should still be able to kill on a zoomed in headshot...
Ok, kinda what i thought..Aviable stuff: Pros: slower movement speed on hit, kinda like the Natascha for some secs. Cons: 25% less dmg. That should be pretty good for that sniper. I love the animations for it and... this just gotta win. Good luck Nrek!

Seriously dude this is my favourite pack of all.
there's 2
Agreed. Everything turned out great. Bonus points for nice presentation too.

Motörhead reference epic win.
Mad Mike - Epic fail since it wasn't really on purpose haha :poly136:.
kindafresh - If it really is that hard then imagine how badass you would look if you actually got that achievement...:)
Psyke - Thanks for the offer, perhaps next time

Galago , REKLAS, JigglesMcGee, treythepunkid, En Ex, buddygz, Simski, - Thanks so much for the support, it has really made this entire process that much more enjoyable
I'd like to add it on the finished and submitted competition packs list.
Why green for a crocodile? Crocks are brown, Alligators are green
(I don't mind the green at all and think it totally works in this case)
Nobody will ever know the difference

All Zoology, all the time.

Are you going to add any text to the Promo?
Also, are you going to change the achievement to say "Shaved Bear Season" :P?
crocodile:
