Yeah IXI I like the Xmas tree thing, do you think you could make it darker though? With that shading, just darker greens.

Liberated your gun looks pretty nice to. I'd alter the up/down views a bit though...

Your obviously attempting to spam the other thread. Its very, very obvious you were lol. I don't see why you aren't serious about entering graphics ;P. Even if you don't want a Zone Staff job, Twinblade and Sniper are nice :).

What are you talking about? Steven's Tree-sabre looks amazing, as does MiNi's weapons (Although I must agree that the up and down views are bad xD).

Maybe make it more in this direction?

the cracker seems Lowquality, there's alot of pixels in there that are not right, it looks really messy.

for your sabre idea. if it is ment to look like a tree i'd do something about the shape.
decided to give my try at a different gun, this one looks better i think.

not done yet.

I want to state that I still don't like the "holly leaf sabre," that IXI made. The shading is a bit strange, and it doesn't look too much like a leaf. (Not to mention, it does look like a wierd tree with the star on the tip.)

The star saw has the appearance of a vaccuum of sorts, the sawblade itself isn't even or symmetrical, and the up/down views show that the handle and motor aren't connected to the saw end. Scale needs to be fixed to fit with the player size, and the hinge where the star blade is connected to the main body of the weapon via the red speckled green pole extending from the 'vaccuum' like feature is off center of the star.

Unless these are rough weapon ideas, I wouldn't say these are ready for game use. I'd say go for the holly sabre, it'd be cleaner, more simplistic, and it only needs a few more changes. Make some more weapon directions for the sabre, so it can be used in ganis and whatnot.

As for Liberated's weapons, the pepperment (white/red striped) theme came out pretty well, although I'd have to say that the first weapon looks like it's draped in a tangled scarf, and.. I dare say.. It kind of resembles the Ghost Rifle when I compare the graphics. But anyway, the second gun looks pretty neat. The projectile you provided with that one can be a "charge" shot for it, while the ranged shot from the Candy Reapers can be salvaged for it's normal attack. Peppermint Rifle, eh? Although, I don't know if people want any MORE plasma-type rifles.

it was only a suggestion, and a quick make.
and in this case it's not a trunk but a handle.

and here's a candygun, not finished yet, i like this one more then my other gun.

edit:
ahh i see what you're thinking,
no i did not copy you're idea.
I got the idea from the candy cane stuff on my own gun.
Then, i made a rifle, you made a pistol, a big pistol.
Yours shoots whole candy canes, mine doesn't?
if i had said my gun shot candycanes instead of christmas balls i could have called you a copycat as much as you can call me one.


@ Elizabeth:
If you don't want a staff job, nor a twinblad or sniper.
Then wth do you post some half arsed Paint doodle for.


done some tinkerin on my gun:
still got to do up and down views.

Steve this is a contest, IF you would redo someone elses idea better, then it's tough luck for him.
No i did not steal or copy his idea.
+ it's not even the same kind of weapon, he's got pistols i've got a rifle. Don't we also have bluepistol and rifle and stuff.
and: it's done ;D
and a transparent one.

switched GFX with that of Streamer to show.

well i prefare my first sabre, but using some of your comments, i came up with this -

maybe i am the only one who can see it, but this is why i chose to shape the first one how i did, more like a weapon.
