can’t afford games? make your own

Just as a meme... You should put this in your game as a reward for some ridiculously difficult challenge and can't be bought, and despite it looking goofy it will garner respect and desire from the playerbase because it requires work and not a credit card, like the good old days of game cosmetics.

Can't wait to pay 5K for this in CS:GO and brag to my friends!

I tried making my own skins. Police got involved. Turns out you can’t just paint a (airsoft) M4 on your front garden and not have someone get concerned

Booty blastin is all coming together

I think a good monetization method for weapon skins Would be selling customization kits so you can make your own skins, different kits having more tools and being differently priced depending on tools. While also being able to earn some basic skins for free

I sincerely want to thank you Garbaj for putting out this tutorial on how to get into Blizzard. I followed it, pitched the idea to a couple of companies and finally got my job on making skins, some of them even tell me that, "I was born to be in the company." This couldn't have happen without you, thanks

i enjoy your videos. as an amateur coder, these videos are really epic to watch

this would be a very cool feature for your game. you can use the steam workshop to post your skins and then people can download the m and use the ingame

i legit thought you were gonna implement a thing where you can draw custom skins in game edit: holy crap it was 40 minutes how did i get 421 likes already

"Mom can we have skins?" "No we have skins at home" The skins at home:

This is unironically what happens when they come up with "new skins"

I always appreciate your videos they teach me so much. Thank you for putting the time into all the editing and showcasing it for us!

I remember the Need for Speed: Most Wanted car customizability to make the car unique. It was next level.

These videos are insanely valuable. It's like I just stubled on the expert with all the info I need on the artstyle I want!

even as a meme, it still looks cool and for me that's valuable advice (worth millions of dollars of course)

I miss downloading cheesy golden models for all my guns in CS and TFC from sketchy websites

Honestly the idea of being able to make your own wraps or maybe even meshes to coincide with the default models sounds really interesting. Tons of opportunity for workshop creations and community content there

self aware, straight to the point, meme videos as well as truly informative ones, a game on the way, is there anything this guy can't do? Love ur videos.

"And would you look at that, things are already starting to look pretty... overpriced" Well played sir, well played.

Bro I like your chill videos like this. Keep it up!

I have an idea for in-game cosmetics for your game. Something like the players can make in-game skins, use it, and sell it. With these if there is a certain skin so good people really want it and it's made by a specific player (who specialized on skin making that is well known to the community) people would buy it and it would create a rarity for an item. Then you can take a percentage when it got sold in the market. I don't know just something that comes in my mind while watching this video. I don't know if it would be great as well but kudos to you and good luck for everything.

having a feature to customize your own weapon skins would be really nice, like Black Ops 3 did

Blasting booties with the lethal force of a dragon and bling

The video title actually reminded me of one of my favorite ways gun skins have been used in a game. In Phantom Forces, (yes, the roblox game) certain skins actually allow you to modify the color, material and opacity of the skin itself. This allows players to create skins that are unique to them. It's always cool to see the different gun skins people make for themselves. This level of customization has actually been around for a while in racing games like need for speed and trackmania. I just wish more shooters would enable this kind of in depth skin customization.

Garbaj *selects the dust cover of an AK* Here I want it in the upper receiver

You should make a skin system, where the player can paint their own custom skin in a way, just like the good old days with emblems in COD BO2 etc. Would be a nice way of customizing your skins without spending way too much money. The feature could be locked behind a simple one time paywall, think of it as a contributor payment.

how can a low poly AK look boring, this is glorious

Been looking for a simpler way to apply pictures to objects in blender for a while. Didn't know it'd be garbaj who'd save me

I interpreted the title as “you will be able to draw your own skins in my future game” first

The funniest jokes have roots in reality and boy is this video funny AF.

That came out so much better than I expected

This would be a really cool game feature in game like you can create skins that the player would send to a admin and if they allow it they would put it into the shop were they can earn what ever currency you have and buy there favorite skins it would be a cool feature for you and the players

Jokes aside I do think that's exactly how they made these super expensive skins, just with a little bit more effort. Making marketing research of what sells, applying popular themes to popular weapons, making them shiny (metallic or glow, or maybe both). The same thing really

It's... it's brilliant!

bro fr just said "upper and lower receiver" like it's an ar-15 💀

ik its a meme but stuff like this helps motivate me more in design

0:17 the first thing you need to do, of course, is to *set your browser to dark theme*

Learned something new. Didn't know about projection unwrapping.

honestly w/ the simplistic art style you're going for, having a system where you can apply unlockable stickers to you guns w/ whatever scaling and rotation you want, wherever you want them, would be a p. cool way to let players customize their loadout hell, going the extra mile and letting 'em change the colors of the guns' "palette," and maybe even apply color-customizable patterns to those areas, would really let 'em go wild and whip up some goofy-looking monstrosities that nonetheless express their aesthetic to a t without having to learn how to actually create textures themselves plus keeping the stickers and patterns limited to an curated selection means you'll only have to worry about people making vaguely phallic shapes out of the stickers, rather than having to deal w/ stopping people from texturing their stuff with straight-up dick pics

Can you make another short video tutorial but on how to start creating weapon models for indie games? I think it would be useful for devs who'd like to start modeling, since you have a good understanding on how to create weapon models in a game and you have the ability to explain things in a simple but complete way (also I think that in your public there must be a good percentage of devs looking for help in their game). Badically my suggestion is that you'd make a short video showing the basics on the creation of models, and then, if the video goes successfull, you'd make more in-depth videos in the future on how to make models that work in a game. I'm sure that many devs watching you would appreciate this, because you'd give them your very personal insight on how you'd like your weapon models to be made. You could even inspire more people to start creating games and create models.

Thank you so much for making this very useful tutorial! Am currently taking a bath in $10mil, just thanks to you!

Thank You 4 this tutorial💯🐐

You just taught me how to unwrap the texture in blender, thank you

this channel is truly garbaj

meme video taught me more about blender than any tutorial

Banger vid🔥🔥

I really loved the gun paintjob possibilites in COD WWII and I would kill to have a system like that mixed with tarkov level gun tuning

wow i never knew it was so easy thank you excellent video

Can't afford a heart for your surgery? Make it out of cardboard and glue

If this is your regular video, I wonder how awesome your April fools video is going to be

As someone somewhere once said “Your really pushing the boundary of what can be said from our mouths!”

Love it, best tutorial ever in the internet

He called the dust cover a receiver

mans just broke the 4th wall with this is a meme video

Jokes aside, you know what was really cool? Quite literally being able to make your own skins. Well, at least being able to reach a similar level of customization in games. That's what I really mean. The most classic example I can think of would be something like Halo Reach. And yes I know the whole spartan is just a solid color, but the level of customization with each armor piece was pretty awesome. As for a more modern example (which are exceedingly rare nowadays), I think the level of customization in For Honor is also done very well. While it is just sticking prefab color patterns with prefab armor pieces with prefab paint patterns, it is still remarkable how much detail you can get out of it. I should also note that For Honor is a very, VERY reasonably monetized game, with only a battlepass and in-game currency as worthwhile microtransactions. There might be a link to be made there...

As long as weapon skins don't include a hidden buff to the gun (warzone I'm looking at you), I'm ok with. I just don't buy them lol

"Project from View", the ultimate weapon of Ian Hubert.

Damn. All those mall-ninjas must be millionaires.

"cant afford work to afford skins? get a money" -Super Mario Bro (1945)

"fine, ill do it myself"

easy money: just make a full scale AAA solo 4head

Bro makes most GOATed content than most of the gaming youtubers

How did I never know about UV project from view. You have saved me so much pain.

Ak platform doesnt have upper recievers the part you are referring to is dust cover.

1:00 the ak's top part called dust cover not upper receiver

If this game does end up releasing with full mod support, I will be very happy.

*Shows a picture of the M4A4 Howl, a wolf skin* "So people really like dragons."

This is a great simplified C's go skinning tutorial lol

This made me laugh out loud. Thanks. Definitely ridiculous pricing and fuzz about skins - in general.

Tbh, that looks very impressive

"What sells?" "People really like dragons", looking at a dragon, a wolf and a snake skin lol

Thank you! I thought game dev was hard but you showed me I can be rich without having to actually put in any effort!

This video was intended as a joke but this is genuinely how I discovered you could project UVs from view. Thank you lol.

Top tier video.

This should be a high tier reward in your game

public domain eye wing dragon is dope!

Garbaj: This video is a joke Me: No no, I think you're on to something

add glow to it and now its priceless

so true it hurts.

when i first saw the title of the video i think something like "Whao, this guy is going to make a skin maker into his game" what a fool one i was

on point!

Cant think? Make someone think.

Don’t forget >1% odds in the lootboxes and fill them with the ever desirable gamer portraits

I honestly expected that this video would be about implementing skin creator in your game

i watch these...and i will never use any of this knowledge, but its still entertaining

I TAKE YOU ENTIRE STOCK!

I never thought of an dev channel to be UKposts s tear

amazing videos as always. even as a meme

The super rare and expensive glossy cheese dragon skin

Dang, I thought it was one of those videos where Garbaj goes into the game's assets and reskins default trash skins in valorant.

For a second I thought you were gonna showcase a "make your own skins" feature for your game

To be fair pretty much every skin in csgo cost about 2,50 to open a crate, the players are the ones who see the value

gona make a fully black weopen to make it harder to know what it is for the enemys like: is it a ak47 no it is a shotgun

It's more upsetting to see how easy it was to make it.

now apply a galaxy/camo ontop of the dragon and you basically gotta refinance the home for that skin :P

Funny thing is I actually started doing something similar with skins in games. I have upwards of 400 skins in league of legends but realized I just love the splash arts. So now if I really like a skin I just opt to draw it instead of spending money on it.

"I'd Buy That For a Dollar!"

Lol this made me laugh! On a side note I actually dug the design; although I thought it was better before you changed everything non patterned to gold :-)

The option to drag and drop images from your pc and make your own skins would be pretty freaking cool. Although, many people would probably put images that are inappropriate on their gun.
