Hello world :D

I'm 18 years old, living in germany and having fun with blender.
I dont have the knowledge of exporting my models into the hl2 engine or importing models from tf2, so i will need a lot of help.
some time ago attempts to export blendermodels for css went alwas wrong :/
so here is my entry, im working on the medic, -german guy.. :D
but i dont get the style of tf2, im a bit depressed.... so i would be pleased about some help.
i developed a crossbow, but in dont know for what wepon i could use that, melee? no i dont think, so it would be the "blutsauger"

    i modeled this thing yesterday and tonight, so this is only for the contest, i know the rules in this point.
    i just dont actually know what weapon i will replace later.

    You'll need another 2 items, though. Stick a big syringe/needle in the crossbow, make it a blutsauger/needle-gun replacement, and you've got yourself something interesting.

    TF2 style is always a bit exaggerated, but not the realistic details, the simple obvious stuff is often exaggerated.

    Yeah for tf2 models try to focus on the silhouette of the item and less small details, in tf2 everything is more bold and like re.wind said more exaggerated. For your crossbow i suggest maybe going for a less bulky design and do something like Van Helsings crossbow?

    woha, thanks buck, this Van Helsings crossbow is amazing, maybe i can make something similar for tf2.
    thanks to the others for the tipps, i'll work tomorrow on a new model, this one is not good for tf2 :( 4 hors work are gone

    Seems more like sniper weapon.
  • Buck
    Np mate, also if youre going for that try and make it more modern. What i wanted to point out was the drum magazine thing it uses.

    The medic doesn't seem like a crossbow kinda guy to me. Van Helsing's crossbow is pretty similar to the syringe gun though even that still doesn't feel like the medic to me.

    more modern is complicated, i love this tf2 style, but i fail in making it.
    what elements are useful, to make something look more modern?
    an crossbow is not that modern.
    also for the problem as melee weapon:
    i wil add a knife or a hollow needle at the front, so it will be useful for a close combat.
    in addition to that you will be able to shoot every 5 to 10 seconds to increase your ubercharge. i think this would not change the actual gameplay. i hope this fits to the rules

    so next try, i decided to make something for the pyro, i had no good ideas for the medic, and the question now is, if my ides for the pyro are a bit better :D
    because of his love to fire i thought the pyro loves grilled chicken,so he'll get a grilled chicken hat ;) but my old problem, i dont get the tf2 style, it looks so uncomplicated, but i simply dont get it -.-


    have a look
