male_messiah - kingpin revision
_______________________________

Converted on request of Truzenzuzex and Mr Damage. I was sent a 
botched convertion of this old quake 2 ppm made by a member of 
the community, so I took a few minutes to make some changes to  
another model I had converted to kingpin a long time ago and viola.

//////////////////////////////  Comments  ///////////////////////////////////
 The Coat WILL go out of the "Bounding box" for those of you who care to know. Are we going to
 change it?  Nope. Sorry. We knew going into this that it was going to happen. It shouldnt really
 effect gameplay as you wont be shooting for his coattail. Also the gun skin is bigger than
 standard. Again. Slaine knew it when he did it but in the models current state without
 vwep support the trade-off of a better looking weapon for not having
 to have multiple viewed weapons (and texture overhead)seemed fair.
