Merc Poll

[goodkebab]

I am starting a poll for you guys to contribute on what the face of the merc should look like.  Keep in mind this is only the face...so you are free to post anything you want.


So post a picture of what you think the mercs face should look like....and we will vote!

hm i dont see a poll? well anyways i think the face should look like the ct face or no? i dont have any problem with playing with this merc but if a change is really necessary then i would want a kinda tan skin colored face or white with a cig  ;D

The merc should have his face covered - when you play with a mate (i mean someone you know well), you can feel that it is him under the mask, and without that, there can't be any good team work. So, without the mask, you would lose the cool feeling that you work together, and it would be difficult to model a normal face.
I SAY: BALACLAVA - THE EYES ONLY TYPE ;D
EDIT: yeah, and maybe the eyes colour could be modified, huh??

you have to post a picture first before there can be a poll

and you will see the face when the gas mask is removed.

I really like the last one, it is kinda military, but adds some freestyle feeling, also, the balaclava should be in a camo pattern - maybe red or orange, so it matches the merc's hud??

All those pictures seem like they belong to the spy. So, should we be aiming for a contrast of the spy or what?

Koke wants the balaclava....

I am thinking of a human face

greetings,
well, it`s not really a human face but take a look at this sketch. I did just a few small changes to the original one (btw: great work, kebab), but the design of his face/gear/visor goes more near CT which i would like to see for PS, too. I did this when kebab showed his merc sketch some time ago here in the forums, it rested on my hard drive since then...

Here's my vote - the mercenaries from MI3




Quality isn't that good because I had to pause and take a shot (which proved more difficult than it sounds on the venerable Dell 8200).

Keep the ideas coming!

I thought Tom looked a LOT like Sam Fisher in Shanghai in MI3. Same kind of black costume, night vision goggles, rappelling.

MI3 mercs look emo and sad.  No thanks.

I think it would be really cool if we could see the eyes of the Merc.
