MrWhitefolks GMod Screenshot Thread of Badassery

Something about the "poolside" image bugged me, so I went back and redid the skin tone of the character and the lighting of the shot. The link and image have been updated accordingly. No longer is it bathed in a massive contrast and all dark - it now reflects a more softer tone and one that would be fitting of someone sitting by a swimming pool in the daylight.
 
THIS ONE IS NOT WORK SAFE, THERE ARE BOOBIES



THIS ONE IS NOT WORK SAFE, THERE ARE BOOBIES

-All hair for both models is either completely custom or massively modified from original image
-Bloom (highlight characters, window, bedroom itself)
-Color Tone work (characters only, room image was just slightly desaturated)
-Skin tone work (color modification, detail enhancement, duotones, fucktons of layers, etc)
-Shitty attempt at rim-lighting
-Elexis's eye moisture/reflection (nothin says awesome like a pencil tool mixed with some blend)
-Elexis's teeth (original's were WAY to bleak and grey on the chroma_key map)
-Other chick's mouth (inside of her mouth is reflective, so the tongue, shading, colors, etc are all custom)
-Other chick's eyes fixed (iris didn't pose correctly [my fault] and I ended up having to redraw the bottom portion of each)

Yes indeed, it is a damn shame actually. However, with that request image I learned that you can't have over 50% of a model's "mass" being pushed through a world object without it losing it's ability to display lighting. So it was a concession I had to make, and I hope you guys can forgive me for it. :D

btw - The "Justice Handshake" image up there was updated to include more actual "handshake" and less random special effect shenanigans.


I probably have no idea what I am talking about, but could you not use 4 portals(still only showing two in the pic though) and two character(still looks like one) models to achieve this more accurately?

That said, I just want to thank you MWF if you are the same MWF from many years ago when I stumbled on your page, and laughed my ass off for hours. Your articles were hilarious. I hope there is an archive somewhere.....*goes to check*.

Unfortunately the portals are just 'for show', and as there weren't any correctly working Portal guns for GMod that I knew of (there's one, but it's nowhere as good as the one from the actual Portal's title) at the time, it forced me to jimmy-rig everything and hope for the best. :D
 
My apologies for bumping my own thread, but I totally forgot to link to the original unedited image of the last screenshot edit. You can find it here and then compare accordingly.

Also, other than the "still in progress" Jeane vs Badgirl image, are there any other requests?

Boo looks a little aw struck by Vins manliness doesnt he

I'm sure the boo is awestruck. Here's this bald dude with a freaking GUN roaming around world 3-1, just icing off koopas and breaking blocks by just looking at them. If i was a floating squid I'm pretty sure there would be ink EVERYWHERE.

You know, I ALMOST went the route of having Diesel's character in a Mario Kart themed image (since that model is from "Wheelman"), but I just couldn't bring myself to do something completely expected (that, and I couldn't find any good go-karts to work with either, lol)
 
Because they're designed to look that way, I guess. The only one with a "girl next door" look is Holly Summers, but unless I get the light source just right she ends up looking like an emaciated cokehead. :(
 
Shit, this stuff is awesome! Is there a website I can go to to see more screenshots of G-Mod nonsense?

I always appreciate more pictures that look like they're in-game, for trolling purposes :lol

This link here will take you to the FacePunch screenshot section, which has imagery that's far more 'mainstream' than what I do. Lots of TF2, Military, HL2, and other related works sitting there for everyone to scope out.
 
Crap, I forgot to post the song that goes along with that last image. Can't believe I forgot about that - it's fairly important as the song is what really sells the image and it's context :D

Awesome work as usual; needs to be mentioned in the wallpaper threads.

I'd love to see something with Ranma, but lord oh mighty don't use the PS1 character models.

Could you do something with the Zelda franchsie in the future?
 
There's a slight possibility, as Link, Midna and Zelda were ported, along with a decent sized prop/monster pack.

I'd just have to cherry pick the weapons/shields/rupees from random model port packs and find an appropriate setting where those characters would seem feasible - then everything else should fall into place. :D

One of my images ended up on the front page of GameTrailers for their latest podcast type thing. :D
 
Just noticed your image on Gametrailers yesterday. Was going to post it here.

Shame that image almost has nothing to do with Haloid :lol
 
I just wish they would've contacted me or somethin. Never got a 'hey, we're usin your stuff' or anything (I ended up being notified by a random watcher of my DA account) from GT about it, so that was a downer. Would've loved to do something specific for them, but I guess it's easier to find the image via google search and then just whip up a logo out of it. :D
 
Every time I see this thread, I think I should take up GMod. Then I realize nothing I make will look half as good as these. Thanks for posting them!

im guessing i goto facepunch looking for these?

The majority of the models I use are available either at facepunch, garrysmod, or fpsbanana. A few are 'private' either due to the model being too early (in pre beta format), or that it was done for a specific individual and I'm just testing them out/doing someone a favor with a screenshot. Shouldn't be too hard to find almost everything you want though, that's for sure.

This thread right HERE should get ya started if you're looking for game related models though.

IIRC, they've used Wollan's MGS4 photoshop w/ Snake having a light beard a few times
 
sooooo I fail completely at Gmod

I own it but can't load models in :( where the freaking hell does one put it in folder wise? I can sometimes get thumbnails to blankly pop up but that's it :(

Gmod is awesome but has a terrible newbie help scene :(

I ran into this problem as well :(
 
Most of the time you need to check the readme as there's a two part issue with installing models: either you install everything (by just copying the materials/models files to your gmod/gmod directory) or if it's classified as "addon" then you just take the folder and toss it in the addon folder. GMod is quite the fickle bitch when you're first workin with her, but if you have any problems just shoot me a PM.
