Finally got around to posting the 1080p of this thing! Blizzard Entertainment commissioned me for a cross-promotional Source Filmmaker poster a few months ago. They wanted something similar to the shawarma scene at the end of Avengers to help promo their limited edition cups at Taco Bell. Naturally this is everything I've ever built up for since I love food and I love making food-related stuff in SFM.

I enlisted SedimentarySocks and Kichizone for some sweet custom models, as well as help with the ports and textures, and artistic input. Huge thanks to the two of them, it's always a pleasure working with them and seeing the amazing products they can put out for me and other people to use.

Huge thanks to Blizzard, of course, for reaching out to us - this was during the time of the DMCA confusion as well, which has since been cleared, and we hoped that we'd be a positive representation of the Overwatch SFM community at the time. It's always an honour! Thank you to all the people who port the OW models over for use in Source.

I find it amusing how Blizzard asked you to create artwork of their game on their competitor's animation tool.

Wow! I approved your involvement for Blizzard. The 1st Blizzard game I ever try out is StarCraft, then WarCraft, then Overwatch, then Heroes of The Storm. I'm happy to be on Blizzard's Side as well.

Reaper probably likes his tacos super traditional, carnitas with just a little bit and all emphasis on the meat rather than everything else. At this point he's probably waiting for the apple empanadas.

Soldier 76: "Reaper, eat your damn tacos!"
Reaper: *grumbles* "This isn't even REAL Mexican food..."
Soldier 76: "QUIT YOUR WHINING! There's no way we're passing up the Taco 12 Pack! It will save us a fortune trying to feed Winston. Now hurry up and eat!"
Reaper: *mumbles* "Stupid hard-shelled processed piece of crap. Their hot sauce isn't even hot enough..."

I wonder how hot a hot sauce even would need to be in order for it to be hot enough for Reaper.

That's...strangely accurate too. He's sold himself as some sort of ghost of the past for Overwatch, so it could work.

He looks like a petulant child who wanted something else but ended up getting one measly taco and some hot sauce. It's almost adorable.  

Also guac race master race.

Unless his taste buds were also fucked when Overwatch left him behind. Hmm.

There's been some amazing comics about Reaper reacting to how it's not an authentic taco or how he wanted something different. There's also a comic of S76 trying to eat the taco and drink his Mountain Dew without removing his mask. Thank you!

Thank you! Group shots are always a challenge in terms of how I'll be able to fit everybody in, and how to make them all have a distinct personality and purpose to the poster. I love doing them whenever I have the chance.

Yes, group shots aren't always easy! Especially when you gotta take
into considering the different sizes of them all. And I bet you do! They're always
fun to try out!

I really like the carnitas/steak stuff that's more meat strips, pico, and a little bit of veg. I wouldn't say it's authentic since I ate those around tourist-heavy areas when I last visited Mexico; more into non-touristy areas like Mazatlan was just tortilla with meat. Baja fish tacos are also a treat for me, I love fish tacos the most.
