:MC: The Block Heist

Based off of PAYDAY 2, a co-op first person shooter about heists and or criminal activities revolving around raiding areas and taking stuffs. All for more money and loots.

If you do play PAYDAY 2 and find the HUD looking weird besides it just being blocky, it's based off of the popular HoxHud mod.

I am in love with this video game. I've been really into PvE shooters lately, and PAYDAY 2 is a near perfect craft. I think you can tell I enjoy it quite a lot when I have over 120 hours since I bought it last month during the steam sale.

This one turned out decently. The building of the scene and the store in general was a pain for me and I just wanted it to be over. Every time I do something 3D related I learn more and more of my hatred for making sets and stuff in 3D. I love animation. I love messing with lighting. I hate building sets. Any-who, this was also an excuse for me to test out that beast of a sniper that the player is holding in the picture. I modeled that myself and even managed to get proper scopes working. So yea. Fun.

I actually re-made the entire HUD of PAYDAY 2. Instead of just cutting the HUD out of the picture, I actually basically traced over the old HUD in GIMP to make it look more square-themed and more solid looking. It actually turned out well, and gave me a great way to incorporate the "watermark" into the picture. So much so in fact that I think that may be my new watermark from now on because I really like the way it turned out and how it fit down there in that little corner. It's kinda cute even.

And before anyone asks. I play as Wolf in the game. I love having another daily dose of slight insanity in my favourite co-op game.

I think that's all I have to say for now, so BAAAII.

P.S. I have a feeling I may be able to get around to designing a profile template using the style of this HUD. I think it might work well but let me know what you think, because I KNOW YOU READ ALL OF THESE WORDS EVEN THE ONES THAT AREN'T WORDS SDFHADFJKRFHBFDHRFDAHDFHANF YES

Time to re-make HUD: ~20 mins
Time to create scene: Never again
Time to render: TOO FREAKING LONG BECAUSE MY ANTI-ALIASING BROKE SO I HAD TO RENDER IT IN 4K AND THEN SCALE IT DOWN IN GIMP SO THE PICTURE DIDN'T LOOK JAGGED AND WEIRD AND WAAAHHH
Time to post-edit: Yes.

Thanks for viewing! Good luck out there, fellow heisters, I'll see ya around Crime.Net!
