Can you make this downloadable? You can redownload the model files from the workshop if you don't have them anymore.

Brilliant! I wanted to make some death brush. Like a Death note, but backstab instead :D
Enemywill gain mark of the pure death, and if his teammates dont backstab him by usual melees, he will DIE, MUAHAHHA

i think a stat on it since it is a paint brush the enemies you backstab become the color of the oppiste team.

I think that PhantomPeddlerofMadness's idea would actually make the game a lot more fun (not that it isnt good already)

I was thinking for a paintbrush, an effect could be to paint your enemies the opposite color instead of killing them, making them appear to their team, only, as someone on the opposite team and allowing the marked player to take damage from their own team. The only counter to this effect would be medics. If they can heal the person, obviously they're on their team. Also, the marked player can't do damage to their own team. So there's another check.I'm thinking medics could reverse the mark but maybe having to go back to the spawn as a delay would be more suitable, to compensate for what's lost with no backstab.
-Marked medics still heal their own team, of course (definitely not the other)
-Marked engineers would not be immediately killed by their own sentries (unless that makes the loss of backstab fair). Their sentries couldn't change color, too, I have to find. So I guess another check could be the repair of his buildings.

Nice job, Classy.

@Piecheese; It doesn't say anywhere that it's blood, it was intended as paint, however, with a 1 second VMT edit, both teams can use the red tip texture :)

Wait.................
Red team has blue blood?
WitnessGraph 25 Mar, 2012 @ 6:59pm 
wow thats too much, the idea of BS while Cloaked. Maybe if its not a full BS, 50% maybe?

On Taunt near wall: Paint a beautiful painting (Randomly applys a texture or screenshot to a wall)

Dried paint is serious business. I think it would be interesting if the decal tool could be used on this, and backstabbed victims have the decal applied to the back of their corpse.
certified isaac gamer 21 Mar, 2012 @ 12:42pm 
how i can use it ?
Jotch 21 Mar, 2012 @ 10:58am 
here are my stats:
can backstab while cloaked
each backstab leaves a trail of paint behind you as your walking for 10 seconds

The downside should be that the backstabed victim is coverd in paint but the goodside is that ITS A PAINTBRUSH! ITS AMAZING
