Is there a way to make the particles effect bigger? Like purple energy

Making a particle effect bigger requires editing a number of things in its definition. You might want to check the SFM forums, I'm pretty sure that question was asked a number of times before.

How do you usually do when your trying to come up with the choreography for your fight scenes? Do you use any special reference?

There's not much to tell I'm afraid. I do take inspiration from various sources, but unsually no specific one. I just work with what I have I guess.

I really wanna know if there is a way to make a tf2 model nude

By downloading a nude TF2 model. Try MaxOfS2D's website, or SFMLab.

For the cobra poster, How did you change the color of the hats and the models?

A combination of using the TF2 painting code, and retextures used with override materials.

heh, wasn't what i expected, but still, it made me crack up! Also, i found an error in "The Fight For Sawmill" at 5:46, right when cowboy fired his 4th shot in the chamber, traveling straight to Epic Scout, i didn't see no beast, although it may have been that heavy was blurred out so much, he wasn't visible. I hope that this may help with your conflict in the next firefight,
Thanks, and if im ever wrong, let me know.

Everything I've revealed so far about the upcoming video is scattered among the group announcements, especially the first. Everything else is still a secret ;)

Oh, and I figured I'd take a screenshot of the face I mentioned earlier, since I haven't made that project file public yet: http://imgur.com/a/8adGF

I have a question crash, being interested in your work, i just wanted to know if anything in your action "films" as you would call it, that go off-screen, has something done to it? like, position alteration, pose differences, ect, because i like your work, especialy that it really has that action theme going for it, thanks, and if anything is wrong, let me know.

Yours truly,

Hm, well usually I try not to animate stuff that's not going to be seen anyway, but since I often use sequences characters sometimes gesture off screen anyway, and I don't always remove that. I can also occasionally mess up a character's pose or face just for fun. A good example of that is Epic Scout in The Fight for Sawmill, in the shot where he just bandaged his hand and blood soaks through the bandage. He's actually making a derpy face in that shot :P

Hey R234. Were the fight scenes inspired from Monty Oum?
I just want to say that because i got a Red vs Blue vibe from your videos

Hm, I wasn't thinking of it specifically, but there may have been a little bit of him in there, considering I'm a fan of his work.

Hey. Working on a animated video and was wondering if you could explain how you made those slow-motion moments in your latest video.

Usually, I begin by animating the scene normally, without slowmo. Then I select just one frame or two in the motion editor where I want the slow motion to happen, select all non-background animation sets (i.e. characters, moving props, camera, etc...), and then I Alt-drag the edge of the selection to make it much longer, slowing the motion down by a lot. That's pretty much it, really :)

@R234 Hey, I'm doing an animation called 'Double Crossing Double Agent'. The first scene involves a heavy getting shot in the head after firing his minigun. I'm having problems transitioning between both sequences and making the muzzle flash/ bullet shells disappear after the heavy is shot. What do you suggest I do?

For the muzzle flash and shell ejection, calculate the exact amount of time between the particle's start time and the point where you want them to stop, and use that amount of time as the particle's emission duration.

For transitioning animations, select a portion of time with falloffs around the transitioning frame, and use the round procedural preset. The official tutorial on pose to pose animation (#13) covers the process in detail.
