wow awesome idea, but it could use a little work

Looks amazing. Only suggestion I have is to remove the tiny corrosion and scratch marks on factory new, since that should look as clean as possible (especially with this custom wear).

Hey man, this one's pretty neat. The textures are slightly bland and the corrosion is a bit too bright, but you went for something really, really good. I may've come a few years too late, but that thing has my support.

This is an awesome warpaint - I'd totally buy it!

I like this idea for a skin. But just imagining how cool it would look if battle scared was entirely green.

i think it looks better battle scarred

Just occurred to me how cool a BS Isotope weapon would look.

I WANT. IT LOOOK COOL

looks great

but I'm not the biggest fan of the brown color, I'd prefer a different color or shade of brown

Yeah I'm dumb,I mixed the names up

But Dressed to Kill doesn't have custom wears, right? Were you possibly talking about Top Shelf?

I'm actually wrong,Dressed to kill also has the same properties,but they are far from cheap and are pretty limited in weapon choices

@Pixel I did not know that. Huh. So, if you want your Battle Scarred skin to have a sheen on it, coffin nail is the only option? Man, guess I'd better get ahold of some of the skins.

Coffin nail is also the only one to have both a custom wear and a metallic shader

@mariogeek2 I used Coffin Nail because it's the only one i knew had a custom wear texture. I got the idea from seeing the "Molten" War Paint by drew so I asked him how he did it and since he used Coffin Nail, that was my starting point.

@zweek That's neat. You get my applause for putting in the extra effort to make such an amazing skin. Honestly, I want to get into making skins, but, for my first one, I'm going to use mannana peeled for testing. Is there any specific reason you chose coffin nail over any others with custom wears, such as Mannana Peeled, Pina Polished, or Boneyard?

@mariogeek2 yep, I used Coffin Nail for testing. The cool thing about it is that it actually uses two different custom wear textures on two different parts of the models, so it uses cig_ash_embers as the main wear texture and cig_filter_wear for some other parts.

@Pixel Thanks for the feedback! Now that you point it out, I can definitely see how it looks a bit like the gun is becoming more haunted with wear instead of corroding. I might play around with brightness and contrast a little to get more of that grittiness out

Well,tint is important so people can recognize what it is more easily

@Pixel Wow, look we've got a chemist over here. Are you here to tell us all about the difference between CuO and Cu2O? Lol

@zweek This looks really good! Seriously, I love it! I really wish more people did stuff with custom wears. It makes the skin like 5x better. So, congrats dude :)

Just curious, but which skin did you use to test in-game? I'm assuming coffin nail.

It' nice seeing someone who had the same idea as mine but made it in a completely different way. Really digging the overall appearance!

The only thing I have to say is that the copper oxide looks a bit too bright,which makes it look like Halloween-ish instead.

I'm really digging the patina effect.

Damn, I'm usually a fanatic for factory new skins, but this one looks cool even with wear. The verdigris-coloured battle-scarred version of the shotgun and medigun look especially nice.

If this warpaints makes it in, I foresee a run on the pale green worn skins from people who have pale green Halloween Unusual effects on their hats (like Haunted Ghosts, Demonflame, Haunted Phantasm Jr). The pale verdigris green also pairs well with Cool and Isotope weapon effects, while the Bronze goes well with Hot, if this warpaint can be unboxed in Unusual quality.

Woah, this war paint looks great even when Battle-Scared. I really like the Field-Tested version of this compared to Factory New
