Looks good

no

Horrible eyesore with the creator saying they simply drew over an already existing image. Amazing.

А ты начерти такую диагональ сначала.

8k google png gears as tf2 texture, what could possibly go wrong

Okey dokey, i will improve it.

Just doesn't work in the TF2 style. Its too realistic compared to the weapons themselves.

I found reference in internet, and then i redraw

The cogs don't fit well into TF2's style, compared to the other 2 textures which is really strange. If you could make painted flat wall materials you should be able to make very fitting cogs and gears. Are you actually drawing these textures or finding them from somewhere?

I feel like this submission should take an autumn route, where the background of the main texture is a color close to stock weapons.

I also noticed that you attempted to reduce empty space by adding gears in the background but this seems to have been done half-baked, and you can notice some spots where there's nothing in the background instead of gears.

I think this would look a lot nicer if the cogs were all toned down and various brass / silver colors, as right now they are all different dark and bright colors that are thrown against each other which ends up looking very noisy. This is a really nice idea though and I think it could work out nicely with some better colors.
