White is a little too bright but otherwise is a fantastic warpaint

THIS IS FIRE!

Finally, a war paint that has a good-looking wear effect instead of the ugly default scratches

Basically every other sword is though so we’ll be fine

@MadDog Thanks! Unfortunately the Half-Zatoichi isn't war paintable, otherwise it absolutely would've been the first thing I put in there.

amazing war paint, definitely my favorite and would buy it on the spot if it got released in game, scratches that one weak spot i have for japanese/or any historical stuff as well as fancy ornamented weaponry.(missed potential for a zatoichi showcase of this war paint)

the withe/silver covers a bit too much of an area

@Geebanger0 Thanks!

This is a high quality piece that should already be in the game. That custom wear is great, and is interesting without being desirable to the point that battle scarred versions will be the most expensive.

Thanks again for all the positive comments and awards! Common feedback I saw said that the steel was a bit too bright, and this was due to many factors: the angle of the weapons in the promos, how TF2 does the albedo tint shading, and the fact that I added a faux hamon (hardened edge) which was intentionally brighter to help resemble a real hamon. Regardless, I took the feedback into account and adjusted the steel's alpha channel to be a little less bright in that area, but I probably won't have time to update all the promos to show it so you'll have to take my word for it.

Congrats on submitting an item to Gertrude's Gallery of Garments Costume Catalog.

It has been successfully added to the collection best of luck and may the best submission win!

The silver is a bit too bright on some weapons but otherwise its very cool!

Rootin for this one either way hope to Gaben it gets in

This looks nice but i think the silver needs a bit of toning down, since its pretty bright (as an example look at the scattergun), and the gold detail looks nice its pretty busy, try to fix both of those and it woulde be a 10/10, but even now it looks neat!

@ShadowMan44 It might just be the thumbnail because they're not that detailed. The dragon will never get cut off, it's a sticker.

@Lu7ky is craptacular! Thanks! A more general pirate war paint got in last year so I figure this would have a decent chance.

This is the sexiest one I've seen so far, not so Halloween imo which is a shame as its a summer war paint shoe in. (And we know there's none of them :( )

naw its perfect

The diamonds on the bottom texture (forgot what it is called) are way too detailed. I don't know if it's just the fault of the workshop thumbnail but the golden diamonds have a heavy amount of detail for such a small part of the war paint. Simplifying them as well as the black negative space/pattern or whatever would also be really nice too.

The nimbus clouds I can't say too much on because it's the main attraction of the item, but the dragon I am concerned about. Is it possible to get a bad seed to where it's cut off on certain weapons like the Back Scratcher or the Jag?

Oh God lord, a katana Warpaint well made it, gud stuff.

Love it
