good, but too short
Misserette 15 Aug, 2023 @ 12:46pm 
I beg, we need a non-looping Engineer taunt and this would be a great pick
BerrySerious 13 Nov, 2022 @ 8:31pm 
If this gets added it better be atleast just 3$

I like the idea but the way it looks now it's like he's trying to wrestle a facehugger off of his face
Sconter 20 Aug, 2021 @ 11:55am 
should have be named "the texans flute"

So it is like the Banjo, but you can use it when you did a kill

it would be great if it was like a dueling banjo 2, that the instrument was played faster
Bearded Expense 20 Feb, 2020 @ 2:57pm

stargazer 18 Aug, 2019 @ 7:44pm

Redsuperguy 31 May, 2019 @ 9:47pm 
That's so Good
mind spiders 9 Nov, 2018 @ 5:20pm 
I think it could be betting if it would loop

A beautiful after-kill taunt. I love Engineer, and this fits his character beautifully. Also gives him a regular taunt with an instrument!

OH OH OH OH!!! Make it have a rhythm and make it a looping taunt!!!!
ascooo 9 Jan, 2018 @ 12:59pm 
You could make it last a bit more, untill you don't press another key.
The Bean Probe 28 Nov, 2017 @ 8:17pm 
I think it should look a bit more casual. Great concept though!
Shakkari 18 May, 2017 @ 1:39pm 
Noice.
JayArr 22 Apr, 2017 @ 7:18pm 
Reading the title i thought he was going to sit down and actually play the blues on the harmonica, but what i got was an inhale, exhale, and another inhale with a slide twist end. Still cool taunt:balloonicorn:

The song is too bland, other than that I like it
I feel it's a little short, other than that, good job !
Shakes 18 May, 2016 @ 3:10am 
Short, sweet, and to the point. And the animation is good.

I like it.

REALLY GOOD TAUNT




I lOVE IT !!!!
a basic cucumber 4 Mar, 2016 @ 10:58pm 
I really like all the instrument taunts on the workshop (and of course, the killer solo) so I obviously really like the concept for this but the animation and music aren't really fleshed out. I mean, it's called "The Texan Blues" so it should at least have blues playing during the animation , right?
❤aryanne hoofler❤ 31 Jan, 2016 @ 4:15pm 
i like the idea, fits his backround but it would be better if melody was longer and more happy notes
'Ello 16 Nov, 2015 @ 7:01pm 
I'm fan of the (default) engineer dance taunt, and this harmonica taunt would go well with his personality! However, I do wish it had some more taunt movement (not necessarily more animation), which could either thrill or annoy on the deathcam or during gameplay. If you're up for it, check out some of the movement studies they did on the Dwarves in "Snow White" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7-QaPlTd-M&feature=youtu.be&t=3m5s ( 3:04 ) . If you did intend the engineer to stand still in this taunt, I'd love to see some more "engineer characteristics" poses. With that I mean movements or poses, that the other classes would look weird in if they also did the exact same taunt - F.eks it'd look off if the engineer copied the Scouts taunt "I'm running circles around you!". This is a challenge, but I can see you got animation skills to achieve it
garrett 11 Nov, 2015 @ 1:31pm 
if this gets added to the game may i please have one? i like engi alot :D
Roc Wolfe 20 Aug, 2015 @ 9:52pm 
I this exact idea myself but Idk how to make taunts, imo its needs a better tune and animation
Boot Scootin Boogie 18 Aug, 2015 @ 11:26pm 
You're gonna carry that weight
Deathvizor 14 Aug, 2015 @ 11:02pm 
would think a better toon would be nice understand short and simple but a bit better and not sounding like a child is playing it plz other than that love the idea
Andy Thybo  [author] 14 Aug, 2015 @ 7:33am 
@Mini_Marauder Are you too sure about that statement? I used this as a guide to how people hold it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWLvv_rrSH4
Mini_Marauder 14 Aug, 2015 @ 5:13am 
AFTERTHOUGHT: This, also, is nothing like how you hold a harmonica. It is normally held sandwiched between the palms with the bottom's hands fingers wrapped slightly around to the top.
Mini_Marauder 14 Aug, 2015 @ 5:11am 
Love the idea, but I agree with Douzeju. The movements are too violent and unfitting for the Engie. One more thing is, in the toon I think it would sound best if you had the last trill go one more not up.
b3afy 13 Aug, 2015 @ 12:27pm 
if this is added, then that means more band students
Douzeju 13 Aug, 2015 @ 8:02am 
The animations does not fit at all the kind of silent smoky night ambiance one would want to feel with such a taunt. He just looks like a kid playing with any instrument... a bit too far from the engineer in charge of practical problems imo.
Spooktober-Fierce1 12 Aug, 2015 @ 10:12pm 
For the love of all things, if you add more tunes do NOT. I repeat DO NOT use any variation of "Amazing Grace". I am so sick of people associating that song with the harmonica so that anytime there's a harmonica, people always want to hear "Amazing Grace".
Seiko300 12 Aug, 2015 @ 5:26pm 
i 100 percent agree with Golden_Engie -TPF- the animation is great but i would really like different tunes i can see how this would get annoying actually in game if someone was spamming this plz add this valve!

Cheddar 12 Aug, 2015 @ 5:15pm 
yes
KingKinokoDayo 12 Aug, 2015 @ 4:14pm 
This looks really cool, but maybe have different kinds tunes? But I really like the animation, I hope this gets added!
ULTRA STREET FIGHTER 13 12 Aug, 2015 @ 2:18pm 
I think this taunt can be better if it had the option to stay alll the tiem you wont, but for that deteal, good taunt :D
sedisocks  [author] 12 Aug, 2015 @ 1:51pm 
As many as Valve wants to add
Yellow Dice (Old) 12 Aug, 2015 @ 1:37pm 
Is there more tunes or just only one? :/
Leo J 12 Aug, 2015 @ 1:22pm 
Really Epic.

Wanna have!! NOW!!! ;P
MukPile 12 Aug, 2015 @ 10:12am 
I love this taunt for the Engineer, but I think he should play a catchier tune; either something brash and provoking (like "Dixie Land"), or sophisticated and soothing (maybe something like "Amazing Grace").
Tesla Coil 12 Aug, 2015 @ 8:32am 
This taunt is amazing. The little harmonica-flip he does at the end is perfect.

My one bit of advice is to make him move the harmonica left and right as he plays, particularly if you make it longer like other people are suggesting.
