Cordyceps Charger

"What the hell is that?"

"It's a goddamn Bloater!"

"Bill, that's clearly the Charger from the hit game Left 4 Dead 2"

"Joel, shut the f%ck up!"

This is my second Cordyceps infected mod. Ever since I discovered that Bloater model, I knew I had to use all that fungal armor and put it on some other infected, it didn't really fit the Smoker, so I saved it up for the Charger.

I'll be blunt : this model sucks. Or, rather, the skeleton of the default Charger model. I've realized that the Charger model has a wacky skeleton that makes it difficult to edit the mesh, so that it moves correctly(plus some animations are literally the smoker's). No wonder, since L4D2 was rushed. I did the best I could trying to exclude any clippings but it ain't perfect. The armor on certain animations might look kinda funky. Hopefully, I never have to touch the charger mdl ever again.

Everyone's been asking me to make the rest of the infected, but honestly, I'm out of ideas at this point. I've wanted to make the Charger and the Smoker from the very beginning. For now, I wanna do something else.

I really like how the part of the skull turned out. I knew my Slightly Redesigned Charger texture would come into use. Some parts of the textures were borrowed from Citizen's Bulldozer Charger skin, especially the clothes.
