I don't know why, but it looks very much like something we'd see in Team Fortress 2.

Maybe I've just playing that too much lately.

Also, is that an air conditioning unit? :p

:D i love tf2, the art style is amazing and yeah its an aircon.

i got to add what i wanted to the back end :D

altho i wish I'd seen the extra concept art from the oddworldlibrary.net



some extra blimp stuff in there, i nearly exploded!

while you guys might not even have playd a Gears game. Oddworld and Gears have some things in common.

There's very much a grungy Victorian steampunk theme through out them.

This isn't actually a thread about blimps. Just saying.

I posted it because I knew most of you guys wouldn't play gears as you've probably all got ps3s.

I'm not the biggest gears fan, i didn't really care for 1 and 2, but 3 has some really nice art. you get to see a lot more human structures etc.

I know at the time of texturing my blimp I was looking at giving it a skin look and ended up using a leather texture base. this skin blimp in gears made me WOW. so yeah semi-related

Oh, you're the guy who made the model. Right, sorry.

I thought a random newbie had just resurrected this thread to say "lawl look guyz i saw a blimp in this game. tHis is the blimp thread right?".

More to the point, look guys, gears copied oddworld! >_>

Sekto Springs 09-27-2011 06:57 PM

Gears copied every action movie/game that preceded it.

lloyd 09-30-2011 02:09 PM

now now. there's nothing wrong with it.
stop being a big old fan boy. look past the console its on and at the amazing art.

SW was made to jump on the 3d / fps band wagon

you can totally flip that around for any game. what it does, it does well
