For anyone who might ask, this is from Band of Brothers episode 3, Carentan.

[–]TheJankyPotato 5 points6 points ago

I was about to say the same thing. I loved this scene. The epicness of it gave me muscle spasms.

[–]BrawlStrogg88 0 points1 point ago

That's the episode with the German guy getting crushed by a tank, damn that gave me a "shit... that kinda stuff happened" moment.

Awesome job! Did you paint it or use a photoshop filter on a photo?

Looks like he got shot with a paintball.

[–]indyK1ng 4 points5 points ago

Actually, it's kinda interesting. Before Band of Brothers they used explosive charges for the gunshots in movies and TV. The downsides were that it provided some risk to the actor wearing the setup, the person doing the shooting couldn't stand that close to the individual for risk of hot powder and other debris, and they could only really rig up one shot charge safely. When they made Band of Brothers they invented a system that used pressurized gas, making it much safer and allowing shots like this one. It also allows multiple "wounds" to be rigged up.

And how this relates to your comment? When they talk about using pressurized gas I think of the small CO2 canisters used for some paintball guns.

[–]TropicalUnicornSong 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, interesting. I still don't think it looks massively realistic though. I've seen enough videos on Liveleak of people getting shot to know better.

[–]indyK1ng 0 points1 point ago

The point is never realism, but escapism. People enjoy what they think of as realistic, not what really is realistic. The point of the new setup is to improve the action.

[–]TropicalUnicornSong 0 points1 point ago

That's a sweeping statement. Of course there's the element of escapism; I for one however enjoy what I know to be realistic (as far as is achievable), and am disappointed by the lack thereof, and I know I'm not alone in that.

I don't care much for the design, but the copy is perfect.
