Model description: PADMAN is a comic character from the german artist ENTE (Andreas Endres)
and he is the "meanest gamer in the world", at least in "PSG", which used to be called
"Playstation Games" magazine. PADMAN presents himself as the heroic PlayStation defender in "PSG".
No matter if it´s Mario Brothers or Sonic, PADMAN eliminates all competitors without batting
an eyelid (does he have any?...hm..). Even creatures of his own kind are not safe.
Especially he´s out to get those little, cuddly, soft-hearted sissies, like "Croc" and "Spyro".
Don´t need to mention the "Teletubbys" or "Pokemons" here.. ;) PADMAN doesn´t have any friends.
Only PadGirl causes him to be cautious. Well, he is just a man afterall..heheh..

The Pad-Maps from ENTE are some of the most popular Q3 (and soon EF) fun maps and it was just a
matter of time that the name patron of the Pad-Maps found his virtual alter ego!!

Also, If you want to paint a skin for PADMAN, you can get the wireframe.tga's from www.padmaps.de..
