But I prove and accept the funny chicken.

Chickenman456, you cant take criticism! What does a chicken have to do with the pyro and engi???? you could atleast make a joke out of it and put instead of a chicken head a sentry head or something, i dont know, just make it more suitable for the class. it just doesnt fit man.

Dammit, GoEatATowel. While your initial comments were unnecessarily standoffish, I gotta admit those are some fantastic ideas.

I'll add that giving Pyro anything made of wood and NOT include scorch-marks doesn't make a whole lot of sense, considering their profession.

Feel free to take this idea, if you want to. You've shown you have modeling skills, and I think an idea like it would come to life with your capabilities.

A set like this would also work well with a smock, but I can think of a lot of sets that could use the small-hobbyman angle, such as a mixture of a beard and the dad's duds, or the egghead's overalls.
That also leaves room for the stain pot, sanding block, unfinished wood blocks, whittling tools, or even the belt itself to be painted.
I do not have the technical skill to make these things, but I can fully commit to a concept if I am working with the right people.
Do not doubt the viability of the people you critique just because you think they're boogeymen out to haunt you and your posts.

If I had the blender skill to model it, I'd work out this concept from the reworked idea:
A tool-belt with a set of pockets, each containing different whittling tools and uncarved or partially carved pieces of wood. You could also include a pocket for a small bottle of stain or a sanding block, but the general gist is a toolbelt specifically filled with whittling/carving tools and materials.
The small, unfinished blocks also allow for a tad of creativity, with an unfinished whittled Dispenser or a small carving of a sentry, hell you could even have the half-finished head of the original item.

I do actually have some ideas, most of them reworks of items like this. As I said, this is a well-made item, but it just doesn't fit, but if we go back to the core concept of the item, widdling and carving, we can make something out of it.
Right off the bat, I'd try to retool the idea from a completed item on the shoulder to a piece of clothing or miscellaneous item that shows it being a part of the merc's lifestyle.
I'd narrow the item down to being an Engineer only item, since crafting/building/engineering is his entire schtick. Engineer has a lot of pocket items already that work with this theme, so aligning the item with that thinking wouldn't be too far off.

that's not a joke, you're just trying to be annoying.

If you have good ideas and intentions for the workshop, I suggest you don't burn bridges and act like a child with every creator you see.

Take a joke for once in your life, since you like dishing them out so much.

yelling "funny item on shoulder" is not a good faith critique lmao

Extra Ram, That is the worst kind of response you can have to criticism in general. So much hubris exists in the idea that your work is untouchable, and anyone who comments otherwise has to prove to the creator being critiqued that they can do better without actually taking in the critique itself.
Read the room, don't start pointing back at it and start yelling about how they should try to do what your doing better. It's embarrassing.

If you wanna spend this time being overly critical about the content people make and tell us what you think we should be making instead, why don't you pick up the tools of the trade and make your own cosmetics?

Clearly you've got a better idea of what the community wants than we do, so why waste your time complaining to us when you can do it yourself?

Nice model, did your hugbox approve of it?

nice opinion, did a youtuber give it to you?

funny item on shoulder!
funny item on shoulder!
funny item on shoulder!
funny item on shoulder!
It's well made but I wouldn't want it in a case. It'd be something I would take two of and re-craft into a random drop hat. Try something people would want to wear practically.

oh boy, another random item thrown onto pyro.

Why should this be added into the game? What cosmetics does it go well with? What does it have that other similar cosmetics don't? Who does it appeal to? This cosmetic is just a pun and poor excuse for a submission.

Dumb commenter
