I can't make an original LAW
And Jesus people, they're similar because they're based off the same guns! They're supposed to be similar.
This isn't the first time PapaSurf has ripped off MZ's weapons, he just didn't cover it up as much with this set.
Firstly I use a very limited pallete with not many shades, thats why the shading doesnt look so smooth or blurry like with most other modders. It's no coincidence that the shading intervals are the same in both works.Also, I use some very specific patterns for shading, for example when I wish to "roughen" an area I place the pixels in a "darker-darker-lighter-darker-lighter-lighter..." pattern. This pattern is still evident on some of the weapons in the same places as in EVO for example the ruger front handguard area.
If you want, I could post the palette I used for making this. It's fully my own. Not a single color is yours.
As for scale, you can see that many of my weapons follow the same scale you use, purely out of coincidence.
In response to Anna, I don't try to steal MZ's work. The fist thing was my mistake. I was rushing to get that mod out and just took a shortcut, hoping no one would notice. There's a probably a lot of shortcuts in those earlier mods, but in no way would I call it plagiarism.
Even now, not that I'm trying to cover my ass here, but forgetting to mention MZ was an honest mistake. If you don't believe me fine, but I think from the time you've known me that I don't support stealing other people's work.
Photoshop has a lot of handy features for tweaking the hue/saturation/brightness of an image or replacing the colours in an image with your own.
Have you ever seen any other two mods that look so similar? Coincidence, my ass.
Do I have to bring out the fist again?
So you were doing an edit of MZ's weapons, but when you posted them you forgot to mention that it was an edit of MZ's weapons.
