DESCRIPTION
	This is a reskin of the in-game Reborn model. It's a personal skin I made for my clanmate and friend, [TMBJ]Havok. It's actually been a WIP since back when I was in {ICoP}, almost a year ago. I finally got off my lazy butt and finished it in these last two days, when all I had done so far was the head, hood, and part of torso for the default. I must say that my favorite version is the red one, as I did the bare chest and back from scratch using a rather ingenious and most 1337 method. For those of you who'd care to know, use the Shadowtrooper body armor as a foundation, and add highlighting and shading to get a rather realistic musculature. The only pain is getting the edges of the model to line up. 
Took me about 5 hours to tweak all four version to as close as they are now. Obviously, they're not perfect, but I wasn't able to get them so. Oh, well. :D Another technique I learned was an easy way to make sunglasses. Make most of the lenses black, and make the eyes and EYELIDS black. This creates a seamless lens, as the human eye can't distinguish different levels of black (since three-dimensionality is partially determined by varying shades of color). I have a deep sense of accopmlishment, now that this is finally done. I guess I needed all that time to figure out how to make the skin. :)

TIME REQUIRED
	I worked on the skin for about a week, 3-4 hours a day at least when I first got the assignment. I just spent 6 hours on it Monday, June 21, 2004; it took me an additional 8.5 consecutive hours to finish it, from about 10:00 PM CST on Tuesday, June 22, 2004, to 6:30 AM CST on Wednesday, June 23, 2004.

ADDENDUM (July 21st, 2006)
	I'm releasing this skin for public use to see if I want to bother getting back into modding. It's over two years old, so it's not a good indication of what I'm capable of now, but it was one of my better skins at the time. The skin comes with a default, team colors, and an additional neutral colored skin. All four are available from the default icon array; in other words, you can select the red or blue variations without needing to go to team colors (a trick I picked up from PLasmaSkins several years ago). Yes, you're eyes are not deceiving you, what you're looking at is indeed a reborn.

KNOWN BUGS
	Not really a bug per se, but the bots names are coded to be colored in the Add Bots menu. That means to spawn them using RCON, you have to include the color codes with the name: ^7Havoc, ^4HavocBlue, ^3Havoc_the_Gray, and ^1Havoc_Code_Red. Example: "/addbot ^4HavocBlue" will spawn the bot HavocBlue. If you're not restricted to RCON and are playing on your own server, just add 'em from the menu. Bright colors, kids, bright colors.
	The jump and crouch sounds have been replaced with something that could get annoying very fast. Your sanity may be liable, but I'm not. That said, I don't suggest spawning multiples of them at one time. While hilarious, nearby people will want to kill you. With dull instruments. Like a sousaphone.
