jaunty we dont need your rant
also yeah this doesnt look good the mouth texture was the best part and it was ruined

i aint reading allat

I wish the sticker system was a little more advanced. So the mouth could wrap around the gun better. I also wish UV skins were fucking accepted into the game.

i aint reading all taht

I ain't reading all that, Jaunty

This is one of those skins that can't be made into a Mk.II without it looking goofy or flat-out wrong.

Regardless, I feel like the choices made when making this warpaint is... questionable to say the least.

The choice of base (Park Pigmented) purely for the coloured tip because the rocket launcher had one is pretty misguided, it would've been neat to make a Mk.II taking elements from all 3 of the warhawk skins, not JUST the Rocket Launcher. I'd recommend using Yeti Coated as a base instead, as it has a better placement for the sticker.

Speaking of the sticker, the choice in sticker being both the eyes AND the teeth look flat out awful, stick with just the eye and lose the teeth.

The custom wear also is rubbing me the wrong way, I don't think it's needed. Warhawk is one of those skins that look really cool in higher wears, and it didn't need custom wears. This just makes it look really goofy and only looks decent in FN.

Also not a huge fan of the RARE and WACKY soldier lion sticker either, frankly isn't needed, same with the rockets.

The red texture could've been made to be a more maroon colour, more accurate to the rocket launcher, and you missed the oppourtunity to make this warpaint team coloured with having the blu team version have the red colour change to the light blue seen on the Warhawk Grenade Launcher.

Overall, I feel this Mk.II wasn't very thought out and just doesn't look well-made, and is trying to be compensated with an ugly custom wear that makes the warpaint worse.

I feel you can create a better end product once more thought is put into this. Do revisit this one and see what you can do to improve it.

watch what zesty said about it, i happen to agree.

looks like a mess

you could in theory control it but it would take A LOT OF CODING WORK, as the person who figured it out, due to 0 tools it is TEDIOUS and ANNOYING and not worth doing unless you're actually insane, this is the best you can do right now until valve does something

To say the same shit everyone else has. This is fucking fantastic, the sticker placement is what kills it. When i think of a mean looking face painted on a war plane (what this is all based on), I think of it on the from of the thing, not halfway down it. It may be out of your control, but if you can control it, please do fix.

you can't change the sticker placement

it's really bad . you need to change the sticker place . it need more work

sticker is weird but other than that it's amazing

I'll take your entire stock.

100% love the idea, don't care much for the randomized patterns though and i don't like the solider sticker as it feels distracting

Please work harder, not smarter

F*ck people who complain.
This looks fantastic

Yep, that's goin' in Heaven's Wrath

These half assed mk 2 paints are making me get a ruptured stomach ulcer

This one doesnt do it entirely for me. It's got some cool design choices, and some horrible ones, one being the shark face sticker.

It wouldve been better to use the tiger sticker instead of the shark face and make the red/black stripe nub pieces the shark teeth. And then possibly add the red stripe onto the main texture instead or just remove it entirely. That would get rid of the shark face problem but not get rid of the concept entirely.

Looks cool!

D-Dude, bro, are you even trying at this point? Grabbing sticker and calling it a day ain't cutting it, chief. Especially if it's as half assed as in this case. It worked for that ONE specific Rocket Launcher Skin and that's it. If you wanted to use it you should've at least bothered to adjust it to... idk, at least fit being randomly placed on the weapon.

Bro you know you fucked up when the sticker clips off at the middle.

I'mma be perfectly blunt here, chief. With the current tools we have for the game some decorated weapons cannot be war paints and this perfectly shows why. War hawk has important details that cannot transfer into a war paint at this time.

You also went out of the way to add stuff like the random red line, which I can't even see where that color and tone would come from on the original decorated weapons, seeing as it doesn't match any of them? But the most egregious factor is that you took the mouth / face of the war hawk and just slapped half of it over as a sticker on the side of a weapon. It is just cut off really noticeably, you can't not see it. It is thoroughly distracting.

Please, I know you have talent but you keep putting out war paint that is just, by your own admission, recycled textures with very little edits to them. Take more time into making your trade look good, maybe even work on an original idea instead of one that entirely recycles textures valve already has?

best one i've seen recently

we've needed a warhawk-like skin for all weapons for quite some time, well done
