War Paint: Spell Stained

This asset was created for consideration for acceptance for Valve Software's "Team Fortress 2", published on the Steam Workshop at: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2215782235

The goal for this project was to create a Halloween-themed texture that would tile seamlessly across over 40 different weapons, while still maintaining a visual appeal. I chose the theme of the in-game spellbook as the concept, with my primary texture resembling a weathered page with the in-game spell icons randomly placed across it. I also added Agathodaimon runes that spell out various messages, such as the names of the spells and other in-game references to fill out the rest of the space. I also used the alpha channel of the texture, which defines specularity, to hide diamond patterns that would reveal themselves when the player moved their weapons near bright light. My secondary texture was designed to be rough and stained leather binding.
