Dark Cloud Forest Prop Pack

A prop pack based on the forest areas from the game Dark Cloud.


I made these props ages ago to help fill out the forest scenes in my Dark Cloud item set for the TF2 workshop. The forest props were mainly for the Scout's promo items, the poncho and the head wrap. The idea was to emulate the iconic forest areas from the aforementioned game.

Ok, maybe iconic is the wrong world. Upon looking over the source material, I found the original forest zones from Dark Cloud were somewhat poorly constructed. I ended up drawing some inspiration from Dark Cloud 2 and similar PS2 games, and ended up taking a bit of a new direction with the art style. As long as it captured that dense forest cartoony motif, that's all that really mattered(it's just a promo for a tf2 hat and misc item afterall, no need to overkill it).

For level designers, I've compiled everything using $staticprop(well, everything that doesn't have bones), and I've kept these props very lean.
