I hope you put some BONK! bottle caps (comes in glass bottles too I reckon) somewhere in your designs. Maybe tied around the bat somewhere and jiggle boned on cords.
Thanks everyone! also cool idea's i'll see as i make stuff, pretty busy at the moment, but i have tried to get the models ingame.
No way to get the viewmodels compiled properly bones are all messed up not displaying ingame, so i only got the world model working for the pistol and i didn't really figured out how the Demo record thingy works so this is all i got.
No specular map yet thus quite shiny.
I'd like to say that the Bat and Pistol you've whipped up are simply outstanding.
I'd make the Bonk rad symbol a little duller though. I'd kind of like to see the wing pulled a bit further back. That's just me though.
Are you planning on doing a BONK themed scattergun/ FaN too? Because if you where, it'd be the bees knees.
Snowloss Thanks, yes the shotgun is FaN replacement, its the one i use =D
Psyke I agree Bonk is overdone, though why not make a pack with all weapons Bonk-a-like, i love bonking =D though the shotgun is gonna be less Bonk, and i am not going to make a Bonk hat, or i doubt it, Bonk hat is already brilliant i hope to drop it someday xD
So here's some sketches, i have been busy this week, and not very inspired for the shotgun, Valve has already done some truly badass shotguns for the scout its hard to stand out ^^
The #2 would have one Bonk Can at the front bottom, and again i am keeping the same shape for the handle and the trigger so i don't have to redo the bones and such since i am not able to properly inject news bones or animations, or even recompile a Valve's models with animations neither.
Thanks Khthon i am modeling it right now, i'll improvise this time indeed =D though as i said i am keeping the proportions, since i can't inject new animations etc
@Snowloss Haha that's such a great idea! might add it to the story =O
#2 is nice, but how about a can of CaC instead? You don't kill people with bonk y'know. If you can get it to work like how the bonk helm uses bonk then it'd also mean any CaC skins would be visible on the gun too.
As for the silhouette, it might be a good idea to try having a broken off stock or something. If you're going with that same shape it'll look too much like the FAN, and the lack of a stock would be a noticable difference when the details at the front aren't visible. Plus if it could look more improvised and smashed up that way.
These are all viewport screeshots constant shader with diffuse, i might add some stickers to the hats i'll see, i am working on the story and trying to get v models working ingame...
Sorry no concepts or wips i made these in a few hours from scratch on 3D.
I like the brown cap thing :O
The other ones look too simple and/or futuristic.
When I say "too futuristic" I mean "doesn't look like it was made in the 60's".
How about the Critty Critty Bonk Bang?
It connects to the theme of Bonk and Bonk products, references the fact that there's a Crit-a-Cola in the shotgun, and references an interesting movie?
Whatever you choose will be great. i'm loving your theme so far!
Oobersli has already named his hammer in his Engineer pack that. That's not to say that this one couldn't be called that too, but I think it fits Oobersli's entry better.

i like your hats and bat also the pistol looks rad my only concern is that its a FAN replacement but who cares maybe you can improve it from the noob cannon everyone hates btw the bonk can on the gun looks awesome but how will it reload if it has to flip down will it clip ?
The scouts job is capturing and disruption, the FaN does an excellent job of this.
Keep it as a FaN replacement, every other Scout pack so far has done the Scattergun.
like snowfloss said, keep it up with the FaN replacement even though i myself hate getting killed by force a nature I really do belive in the pack youve got here...keep it up man!
The shotgun replacement is for the FaN it its my favourite shotgun of the Scout, and i don't think its noobish Hithron ;D you can triple jump with it and that takes skill to do some neat enemy fire dodging.
And thanks for the item names ideas, english is not my native language so i still struggle a bit getting cool names for the items, i will decide the names later and will illustrate the items as on TF2 updates.
But i don't know what to do, pick only primary, secondary, and melee weapon + Hat or + many hats (not all i have showed though)
I have given thickness to the rubber bands as sugested by Fluff-Co
Thanks, yeah its not shaded that's just diffuse+ AO on the viewport i am trying to get it ingame though for the viewmodel i don't know if that'll be possible for me.

Possible misc item? Like this but BONK!:

Bonk logo/nuclear logo doesn't look right though.
Replace with scout logo?
Perhaps make it a silver, metalic outline that pops out?

bonk is over-done, think how many other people are doing "lul so randumb bonk XD"

Maybe go full-on improvised weapon for the shotgun.
Here's some refs-
Good to see the FaN getting a little love!

The stock is a lot shorter than the origina FaN don't worry about the shading.

You 'Redeem your Bonk! points' anew each time and it rolls for one of the Bonk! hats.

@ Simski yeah i agree i'll propably pick the last one
Oh well i though there's still time so i kept doing the shotgun, though this is just base color WIP
Maybe he named his gun and wrote that on it?
Bang Bonk Bang! or something

it's not too overblown nor stupid sounding
"you have found :The Big Bang"

oh man, you are right
i'm daft sorry
uh
The Furious Fusillade ?
Yeah I like it...
already an item called the short stop i belive

Make sure to define the edges and stuff with shadows.
