Pay no mind to the little men in the mercenary's eyes 👁👁

This is my favorite cosmetic in the game! Thank you for making this! Great music choices, also!

[@GilliganTF2]

This is one of the few cosmetics i bought as soon as it was available on trading sites, i love this cosmetic so much

[@Wing_fist-er]

I love this so much, I use it on almost every class

[@BR-pw9kv]

Well-deserved acceptance! Beautiful work

[@bvionis]

Nice job with this one. I was wondering if you knew how to give a hat multiple styles. I can’t find any resources online answering how to do this.

[@Magecties]

so that's the hat i keep unboxing aha

Hey, it's so cool to know this item got in! So much work paid off Tell me, how did you do the scars exactly? I couldn't really decipher it from the video

[@Suggo]

I used one of the basic Diamond shaped Alphas and stretched it out with a Planar projection, then made that into a Warp projection to give it a better curve. Then after adding a very small amount of height, I blur it with the Directional Blur Filter a just little (so it's not as sharp). Finally, I used a Gradient Filter to get the colors in. Hope that explains it a bit better!

Great work, Suggo! :D

Very nice idea and cool models, one question though where did you find the merc models? Did you decompiled the original game models or some other way?

[@Suggo]

I decompiled the models myself using Crowbar. Though if you wanna get into the nitty gritty of TF2 workshop stuff I'd really recommend joining the TF2 Emporium discord! As far as I know it's pretty much the only place with good resources publicly available (in the #resources channel) to get you started. It's a good community and they're happy to help friendly newcomers in my experience. discord.gg/tf2emporium

[@luigiisgreen]

the tf2 blog also has the Merc's source files@@Suggo
