Models and Textures - Ruskeydoo
Sounds - Smiley Dan

Inspired by the M249 Para which was released in 1984. A little bit later than the main aesthetic of TF2 but not by too much. Yes it is an American gun, but the stock minigun's main inspiration (the M134 Minigun) was an American gun, so I reckon that's ok.

I made the basic model a while back and it sat around for a while, until my friend Smiley Dan mentioned he is a sound engineer and would like to try something for the workshop. I figured if he was going to make some sounds then I might as well do all the little things and make this submission the complete package.

If you think this is worthy of TF2 then thumbs up and favourite! I don't know how much Valve pay attention to that kind of thing but it would certainly massage my ego ;)

PS - I have no idea what the two pictures about the sounds mean (Dan assures me they are very clever). I am including them as they look tech!

PPS - I took a lot of how I presented this on the Workshop from the legend Laro Laro's submissions. Credit where it's due.
