that IS really cool.

If "high-res" quake asset replacements all looked this good, I might stop complaining about them. 

Fiends don't have eyes.

FIENDS DON'T HAVE EYES.

FIENDS DON'T HAVE EYES!!!!1111!!!!

It is a nice model, however like many such models it has lost some of the essential Quakeness in transition, i.e. they have tried to make it more natural rather then more better and still unnatural.

You guys don't do a whole lot of looking at things, do you?

And now, shambler will argue that those aren't actually eyes: 

How come I've never found the RL in the first 2 levels of e1? 

I fucking <3 you right now. And yeah, bler is probably gonna argue - necros argued with me about this too. Cretins. 

sorry I ever doubted you (not on this, which I thought should have been obvious, but on so many other things that, unlike fiend eyes, are nuanced). 

how are those eyes? I've never seen eyes that look exactly like bits of flesh. =/ 

Yeah sure, the id guys decided to paint tiny 'bits of flesh' that were lighter and yellower than the surrounding skin and exactly the same color as the yellowish eyes of some of the other monsters, and paint them in exactly the location where one would expect to see eyes. Sure. U-huh. 

those screenshots are doctored! 

They look pretty much exactly like the other bits of flesh look like, and I would really expect to see eyes where the horns are. Maybe if there were a clearer picture or something REMOTELY RESEMBLING EYEBALLS I would admit fiends have eyes. But it doesn't looks anything like an eyeball, it looks like a bit of flesh, so I guess you need your eyes checked.

BTW, Contract Revoked r4wx. 

What do you mean a clearer picture? Like this?

This is Quake we're talking about. How much detail do you expect? 

you rock quake world! 

just because you know how to edit a model skin in qME doesn't impress me! 

That last pic clearly shows an eye.

Anyone disageeing is either a faggot or a moron. Possibly both. 

let's mail to adrian! :D 

...but first we have to lay bets wherein the losers become slaves to the winners for a month. 

Zwiffle is already my bitch, and bler would eat more curry than he's worth. 

They're just blemishes. If you'd been genetically transmorgrified by Quake's despickable magicks to have killing spikes protruding from where your eyes should be, you'd have some residual skin damage in the surrounding area too. Sheesh.

Eyes my ARSE.

Fiends have eyes. End of discussion.
