It's good, and the walking pose looks a bit odd on some of them but they appear to be walking correctly.
It's not good. It's a bunch of averagely-posed models doing nothing interesting against a completely featureless background. A blank screen would be about as interesting, and take less time to load.
Need shadows on the ground.
US Marines in modern gear carrying glocks as sidearms
hmmmm
Where did you find the skins?
Adding some shadows would help add some depth to the picture, some Marines seem like they're floating (might be from the lack of shadows), and editing in sand blowing around in the background would add a really nice touch.
It must be okay if rossmum never said anything about it
He might have been too distracted by the other stuff.
Should have added a couple of humvees in the background or something, maybe setting the angle looking kinda like below the soldiers so it doesnt show the flat ground and the empty background.
Apart from that its fine.
None of that gear existed during the 1990s...
This raises the question of why these soldiers are walking in nonexistant (at the time) gear in the middle of the desert for no apparent reason. I don't know TOO much about about Desert Storm but I'm pretty sure the Infantry didn't walk the ENTIRE way.
I don't remember marines with that type of gear in the gulf war.
were did you get those skins?
The rest of the picture was such a fuckfight that was the least of my concerns.
That said,
TERRIBLE CHOICE OF MODELS. TOTALLY INACCURATE. THEY DON'T EVEN LOOK GOOD.
I think the models look pretty good, just that they're VERY inaccurate.
They all look like they have to use the bathroom.
I agree he could have done better with if he added shadows and a little bit of stuff going on in the backround. Plus he should have had his facts straight before publishing this. Also i noticed that the farthest soldier dosent seem to be holding the gun properly meaning he did very poor.
lol us marines in IOTVs w/ army MICH 2000s and MOLLE in 91
lol
Edited:
also m16a4s, m4s, and 20 round mags
Edited:
man when will someone port those WIC models for some REAL 80s/90s us army and russians
also natos
Edited:
they all look like college students who've never been near a gun
Reminds me of the movie Jarhead when they walked through the desert in that small group.
...And who cares (aside from you, of course, and anyone that actually has a problem for it)? It all looks the same to those who are either not in a service or not obsessed with wishing they were in one. Gear is gear when it comes to the gaming world; only that which can appear as eyecandy gets used in games, so make it the last thing you complain about when complaining about the game (graphics do not alter the mechanics, those should be taken care of first).
this is posing in garrys mod.
detail is everything.
posing is MADE OF eye candy.
When you say they're US Marines in OPERATION DESERT STORM, they SHOULD be, US MARINES, in OPERATION DESERT STORM.
I see US Army Rangers in 6 color desert ACUs wearing IOTVs, holding M4 Carbines, and M16A4s.
Those are not US Marines, and their gear did not exist in 1991.
I mean god, at the very least, THEY could have M16A2s.
Edited:
And like 80% of them are posed terribly, holding their guns wrong, looking like idiots.
Their rifles aren't even properly shouldered.
Edited:
and they all look pasted on
Like I said, who truly cares?
This is posing in Garry's Mod; that is what matters. Screw what titles he uses, or which models he uses. Focus on the frikken posing and editing (if it be present); that is what he needs criticism on, not what is wrong with models that other people made. People who do this typically do it for fun- meaning accuracy is not their main goal (nor important by any means). If you post to only complain about the content (in terms of characters), or if you make it such a major part of your post, do not post. Talk about how he can improve posing; [do you] understand that?
i agree
shut up physkotik.
lets get some ALICE up in this bitch yo
(bloo port cutscene models from WiC)
Post #26
Here, have some culturally relevant early 90's music to go with your early 90's period screenshot
You got it baby--
oh wait, you meant the other one.
you can too because well, the other one is lazy :c
No.
W0w00t is right.
And regarding historical accuracy, while a lot of those weapons and gear may have existed circa 1991, a lot of the stuff the military was using was a combonation of modern equipment --like the Bradley IFV and Smartbombs-- and and older stuff dating back to Vietnam --like the Huey helicopter and the M60 machine gun--
but it doesn't matter in either case, it's all up to you since you as the poser has artistic license.
Watch as I make a pose that somehow totally arsefucks the canon of some really popular game and every cunt on this forum cries about it, the fact that most people in here are so utterly ignorant they can't tell a Russian soldier from an American one (pre-ACU) is no excuse.
We desperately need the WiC cutscene models.
The point I am trying to make is: stop hating on people because what they have is not accurate; stop hating on people because what they type is inaccurate. I'll be damned if I have to go research [pointless] information on what was used when by whom. I do not care- it is irrelevant to the pose. Titles, little stories and the frikken models- it is all irrelevant. Criticize the pose not the lack of material that the majority of us (and you pricks) cannot fix.
The pose is shit anyway.
Shut your shit mouth. I fucking guarantee you and every other idiot here who says it's pointless would cry like babies if any of us portrayed your favourite game or movie or whatever in a really fucked-up, wrong way. Also, if you think research is pointless, I really do pity you. I'd rather do the research and learn something than remain ignorant (and stupid, for choosing to remain so).
Edited:
By the way, having details like that right really does make or break something. If I make a WWII pose and use fucking M16s, it's not going to go down well, is it? Jesus Christ.
It matters that it's not accurate when he's claiming that it is accurate. If he'd have named the picture just "soldiers moving trough a desert", everything would be fine, but no, he instead decided to name it with specific details, despite not doing any kind of research or bothering to make sure those details are correct.
Phsykotik.
The posings as shit as the historical inaccuracy.
It is pointless in the way that it does not benefit me other than potentially keep some Internet pricks away for a bit. Other than nitpicking your argument I think there is little else. I understand, I think, what you mean; but, from what I "understand," disagree (too bad, eh? My loss I s'pose).
Simkas, has he actually tried to defend his title?
The fact he put it there in the first place is enough. I don't go making pictures of the HL2 universe with giant anime mechs in them then claim it's "Another day in City 17" or something like that, do I?
