What is all this talk of Milky Ways? I think I am missing the reference.

Here it is! http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-7803.html It's different than the other two. This one is a visual effects test/practice... though now that you mention it, I am feeling in the mood for making another Amnesia joke video.

Make a brute one! Make a brute one!

You're right... the brute IS a bit underrepresented... Personally I don't like the brute very much. It's too unrealistic (yea go figure). But I mean... okay I'm willing to accept that the grunt is disfigured horribly, but the brute is just... it's head is gone! What the heck is controlling it's nervous functions??? Plus I just think the grunt model is made better.
If I make any more videos, I'll have a brute star in it.
EDIT: Oh and by the way, you're about 3 hours too late.
I already made a 3rd video starring the grunt (not the dorm hallway one). I'm uploading it to youtube now.

Yours is much better GraphicsKid! How did you get the chroma keying that sharp?!
And, are you using Adobe After Effects or Sony Vegas Pro?
Edit: Oh, just read the description, darn, wish I had mad 3D program skills. ._.

Chroma key? I didn't shoot anything in front of a blue/green screen.
I just matchmoved a shot I filmed in my dorm hallway (with many curious onlookers wondering why I'm running full speed down the hall with a camera on a tripod) and imported the grunt Collada file into blender. I had to convert the .dds textures to PNGs first, but that was no biggie.
Hey I have to have these skills, it's not just a hobby for me, it's my LIFE!
EDIT: Oh and I had to rebuild the hall in CG and mimic the lighting... yea forgot about that little hiccup.

Brute's unrealistic? Why do you say that?
