Extra item images (again)

[Francisco Munoz]

Just a new laser rifle image



Just to match with the laser pistols (light and regular)


PS: Maybe I have to create a new one slightly more different for the light version as the designation in the game implies that are from different manufacturers.

PPS: I put more stuff at http://s289.photobucket.com/albums/ll214/fmunoz_ge o/
Care to comment how to improve them?

[Erathoniel]

I can't think of any improvements. Other than putting them into an adjustable color, but that's not really necessary (custom weapon color?).

[Onisuzume]

Well, I could say that an iron(or other material) sight near the barrel's end could be an improvement...

Oh, and if that does get added: then I claim the weapon names "Lasgun" and "Las Pistol".

I think it would be a good idea to convert all the images done so far so that they can be put through the color switcher. This would have two important benefits- first, it would allow the same image to be used for different items. Second, it would allow the item images to be cleared from the cache when no longer in use. As of right now, images with palettes are cleared from memory if they haven't been used in a while, while images without palettes remain there forever once loaded.

To do this, one could load the image into GIMP, put the item image on its own layer, convert to monochrome, set the mode to Multiply, then apply the color beneath.

[Francisco Munoz]

A good idea is just to have just 2 colours to swap and left all the others ones untouched (less tolerance than the current one for portraits and mecha).
 That way we can keep some more colours for the standart parts of the items.
 Maybe red and green hues will be ideal.
 I can start working on them if you like.
 Also a flag to use the main faction colour could be added to some items (armours, clothes...)

[Erathoniel]

What about custom painting?

And, of course, faction colors.

Will it be possible for armor to affect clothing color?

Leather Jacket

The colouring still has room for improvement. (my gf says it was better blanck)

EDIT:
Another one, phone / communicator

[Onisuzume]

That leather jacket needs one sleeve.
And one that's mostly cut off.
(and shame on whoever doesn't get the reference)

Stun Pistol


Stun Rifle

Should I create a Heavy Stunner too?

EDIT: I couldn't stop myself...
Heavy Stunner.. just when the cops or you need to subdue some heavy armored target.

[Albijoe]

My only thought on the stunners...  those "caution" lines are usually on the business part, no?  so you... can't hold the stock on those?

EDIT:  Maybe an eject port?  I don't know, there's always rationale.

[macksting]

Heck, I see those caution lines and I think of the Zeus-class Fusion Pistol from Marathon.

Which is, I should say, an extremely lethal weapon.

[Onisuzume]

And that Fusion Pistol reminds me of the 14mm pistol from Fallout. (which is also pretty bulky)

Bunny Hat
This image is a bit subpar... but I wanted to draw it.

Ill try to edit it later and improve it... (now it's time to see if Indy still has the same fun power as before)

[Francisco Munoz]

Shotgun shells, as the current ammo image shows bullets.

[Francisco Munoz]

A Magnifying Glass... just a quick job 5 lines and few uses of the bucket fill tool
