i think tf2 is the game with the best fan-art ever
still seeing quality submissions after a year when the game was released speaks of the quality and longlivety of the masterpiece :)

I think that announcer looks pretty much perfect. Especially if you've listened to some of the sound files included for her that valve doesn't use in-game.

Don't know why, but that's almost exactly how I've always imagined her.

Now I don't smoke, but isn't that cigarette in backwards? I always thought the orange part was the filter.

The orange part is glowing, but otherwise yes you are correct, the filter goes at the mouth end of a cigarette, however not all cigarettes have filters and not all are orange, some are the same white as the rest of the cigarette

I thought it was glowing too, but then I looked in the ash tray. You've got one butt there, and another full one.

Wow, I tried drawing the announcer once, and the result was pretty much exactly the same. Without the silly multicolored suit. And the somewhat unfitting cigarette. Mine wasn't close to as good overall, though. :p

I guess that really shows how well the voice work is for this game - people can imagine almost the exact same look of a character, by voice only.
