I think the portals should be a sticker/decal/whatever they're called
Would be a lot nicer

yeahh uhhh no.

Lazy

i'm working on a personality core themed warpaint rn, i think it looks a lot better than just a warpaint with portals

ok then heres a suggestion for a sticker (or you could just make 2 seperate portals as a coin toss) https://imgur.com/a/CH9tz9U

I like the idea of a Portal themed item, but this just doesn't do it for me. I think something more complex than texture spam would be good.

This test is a failure

mhm

just a heads up team colored stickers are physically impossible
like they genuinely dont exist within the code

you can just use a war paint with a sticker, then swap out the team textures for your promos. it doesnt have to be coded in the game to get added. dont do the same mistake like what i did in regards of the base i used not having team colors. if you are going to use a paint like mannana peeled you could make the worse wears the un-portalable surfaces from the portal games.

couldn't find a warpaint with a team colored sticker, that's why i did this.

originally it was going to be the wall texture with a portal sticker

there are other better portal warpaints. copy and paste patterns are a no from me bro.

would much rather prefer the portals as stickers rather than a pattern spam texture. besides, valve is very finnicky about adding items that are references to their other IPs. (see: headcrab hat that was never added VS breadcrab hat that was only added because LOL BREAD MONSTER BUT THIS)
