Well, I've been wracking my brain all morning trying to find a way that I can enter this wonderful contest and I think I'm at a point where I have a framework of what I want to do. Feel free to tear these ideas apart (or just constructively comment) though!.
Class: Pyro
Item 1: A cobbled-together molotov coktail of sorts. Ive started modeling work on this one. A zippo lighter twined/wired to a bottle of something flammable.
Item 2: Jaws of Life
Those massive pneumatic pincers that firefighters use to pull people out of cars. I thought i would be cool to include it as a melee weapon for the pyro, to go along with all of the other firefighter-themed gear he has, and it was just far too cool of an opportunity to pass up modeling.
Item 3: Replacement flamethrower design
I had the idea of a hot-rod themed flamethrower. Built out of an engine block with the cylinders exposed and the old style air intake on top, fuel tanks jutting out of the cylinders opposite the player, and chrome exhausts coming out of the front as barrels. Unfortunately, my only concepts for all these are in my sketchbook right now, and i have very little skill in drawing with my mouse.
Anyway, crits/suggestions are more than welcome!
