The mod you are trying to view has ceased development and consequently been archived.

Iron Horizon is a storyline-driven action adventure mod. Taking place in a steampowered, industrial world, you must bravely venture forward towards your destiny...
As you can see, this model is not anywhere complete texture-wise. A good bit of detail is also needed. Right now, we're submitting it for the community to take a look so you can decide what you want! Please tell us what you would like to see on this character, and we'll take your requests into consideration :)
Also, please share your opinions on one other matter. Would you, as the community, prefer slightly less finished media, such as this, so that we get input from you guys? Or do you think it would be better if we make the decisions and finish the models before we show you?

I like the smudgy cannon balls.
Viktors texture obviously still needs a little work but the base colors fit well.
I think he should have a bit more hair like a beard and longer hair.
I think he needs a hat. Maybe even a sea captain's hat, to represent his position on an airship.
he has long, combed over hair, i just havnt normal mapped it yet, and he has a beard.
As always guys, this is great modeling work.
Try not to take this comment wrong. Just speakin' my mind.
I can comprehend the request for input from watchers/players on how they would personally want to see a NPC character designed and fleshed out, but I don't condone the practice. You value their feedback and that's cool. I can go with that. But I would much rather see the team create what they've decided is most suitable to the project, then take the comments and feedback in stride.
To me though, when your asking the communities input on specifically what they would have you develop ( in regard to models, props, buildings, etc., etc. ), as compared to you simply stating how it's going to be done and making it - it reads as a type of " people pleasing " safety net to avoid disapproval. I see examples of some teams being pressured in this manner and altering their content to accommodate and it's utter nonsense.
It's your vision and your creation. I only want to see what's artistically true to your original concepts and story as well as what the team thinks is most suitable for the goals of project. It's an essential ideal to ensure that the project remains truly unique !
We just wanted input mate, and you gave it to us :) It was an experiment; just wanted to see what people had to say about it. We never really intended to go with a "We'll do whatever you tell us to do" approach, more of a suggestion system.
I understand what you're trying to say but i think you may have misunderstood the community update xD
We basically want to know what people think and hear opinions; something to get the team inspired and working with a few more ideas in mind. We're not basing the mod around the community, just simply asking that they are there to keep us on our toes with criticism; I personally love to hear what people would've done differently as it helps with future ideas.
No no, I understand the update completely and I respect that you give the communities feedback due consideration as a valuable tool in guiding the projects work toward a more positive direction ( as well you should ).
This is just a topic that I feel quite strongly about and being that I see a great potential for this becoming a " AAA " quality mod, I'd hate to see it go that way. I just wanted to express my position and appreciate you understanding.
might be cool to have some kind of machanical glove, like it have different tools stored in it.
Now thats an idea :D We'll have to think about it.
Like others have posted above, the texture needs a bit of brushing up, but other than that the model looks pretty good!.
BTW, that mechanical glove is worn by the engineer as a new weapon in TF2, that's if you didn't know already :S
