- Yes, I know. It's cursed. You're welcome :)
Can you spot the diffrences from the animation?
Video Comparison (New vs Original): • Meet the Engineer With...
There's some interesting facts about this video in the link as well.
This idea had been something I wanted to do since 2012. It's 2021 and I've finally had some time to learn the program. I'm quite happy how this turned out. Perhaps one of these days I should make Meet the Soldier with no helmet too!
Big thank you to Maxxy and Steaky for the feedback as well.
Majority of animation made by Valve

The version we needed. Smooth as butter!
It's all fun and games till this guy sapps the sentrys
Dude the expressions are amazing
Best ever.
And cursed as frick
More like cream gravy
Ok sure some find it cursed but honestly, seeing his face fully expressive adds to his character. Engie is humble and he seems to have friendly eyes and friendly personality, but boy can he turn on a dime and kill an entire team while cackling.
I think it's "cursed" because people are so used to Engie wearing his goggles.
I’d want engie as a friend, he seems fun to be around if he ain’t mad at you.
@@patrickhoover8501 tbh Engie is probably the most sane person you can talk to and maybe even enjoy talking to
just don't piss him off and you'll be fine
@@ianfinrir8724this game is 16 years old
I think enough people spent time with goggleless Engineer by now
This is only cursed because that’s not what it originally looks like
This is just really cool honestly. Glad Engie could take his goggles off after wearing them for 13 years straight.
oh hey its that one dude
but hintshottttttt glasses cosmetics existsssssss
I wonder what that would actually do to a person if they wore goggles for years without taking them off
It's 15 years old now. I am getting too old and giant for this.
@@digitaltoaster4956 mostly health issues. Mainly, the result of constant pressure on skull altering it's form
1:04 this scene reminded me of how dark and dangerous the engineer can be
He cut off his arm for the Gunslinger, remember?
@@LawreAnimationsi mean, he kinda like his arm got injured and then he replaced his arm with a gunslinger and hiding it with his gloves
@@LawreAnimationsFuck this, time to play BATTLE ENGINEER.
YEEEEEEEEEEHAW

I came at that part
Out of all the "Meet the Engi without goggles" videos, this is definitely the best one I've seen.
Unlike the others, this one doesn't make him look cursed by actually moving his eyes, eyebrows and eyelids where it's appropriate.
For someone whose eyes we've never seen, his eye movements are very in-character.
and they're very on model with the rest of the cast (bar pyro because masked)
Not gonna lie, I couldn't agree more. This is so true. Especially the last line
@@leodavis4242We have seen his eyes in the comics though
@@Zzydeph Speak for yourself lol. I haven't
@@leodavis4242 Ok... The last line of the original comment sounds like it's talking in general though.
You should read the comics, they're great.
1:10 That moment with flying Demoman and Engie laughing at the fact that he was blown by sentry mid-air is a really nice detail, love it.
I would too
I didn't think this was cursed, I actually liked it a lot.
Same
It's the eyebrows, it adds so much more humanity to the god complex that is engie
@@LizordSword Interestingly enough, the default Engineer model *does* have facial flexes for the eyes (or at least for the eyebrows). This is how cosmetics like Special Eyes are able to work for Engie.
Same
Oh its still cursed alright. It took an even more sinister form.
1:04 that slight eye roll to the viewer is simply 11/10 perfection 👌🏻
LITERALLY
I’m sure everyone’s just gonna comment about how “cursed” this is but the eye movements are just awesome in this and I think I prefer over the original because of the increased expressiveness.
Awesome work!
Well his eyes weren’t visible in the first one so what do you expect lol
I totally agree. This is way more expressive!
I don't no one did
@@TippedScaleI think he means that he expected something a bit more lazy, just like a static set of eyes.
The eye movement's are just
*chef kiss*
Fr
Do ... Do they really ?
@@roxtorlediable based? Based on what!
@@duncanchillake8024 Bird Flu? They tend to do that
@@ignaciogonzalez2929 you're telling me... a shrimp fried this rice?
He looks handsome without the goggles, makes me wish there was a cosmetic that did that.
It’s like you knew exactly what his eyes were doing under those welding goggles.
I recently rewatched Emesis Blue and I legitimately expected him to have no eyes
0:51 that smile is so malicious, it fits this scene perfectly. The eye movement is great!
Honestly the effort put into the micro expressions of the eyes and the eyebrows... It's so well done, the movement seems so natural. My favourite is this 0:48, the shift from friendly talking to anticipation, to that almost sadistic glee, back to friendly guitar playing. It's perfect, it shows Engineer's character so perfectly. I just love this.
*use more gun*
“It’s okay Squidward. Just imagine him without headwear.”
“OH NO HES HOT!”
That's literally my sister😭
@@M9ff1nDuck8rwhat.
@@MysterySuperhero-wy5gv yeah... they kinda simp for every merc except heavy
@@M9ff1nDuck8r Oh, I thought for some unforsaken reason you were in love with your sister.
@@MysterySuperhero-wy5gv What in the ever living fu-
Atleast it isnt cursed as the other engi w/o goggles pics
**Staregineer**
It’s still a little weird
If you get use to this video it seems normal with the hardhat tho
0:51 God I love this expression so much, he seems so calm throughout the rest of the video and then here he just looks like a bloody movie villain looking at the army he assembled in contempt before going back to appearing calm
dude, I'm surprised he's not married yet 'cause damn, the engineer looks good!
Everyone knows your buildings are your children.
And the mother is SCIENCE!
Finally the rockets fired at 1:09 aren't pointless
Edit: I just realized the subtitles already say "RIP Demoman"
He looks extremely and strangely attractive without his glasses and helmet. I was surprised that no one said that here.
RIGHT?? Oh man..
This video really raised my obsession for engie even higher haha
@@narcolepticraytracing same frrr
@@DorpyScorpyy I really like him now.. Oh my god..
This version of Engineer hits different, gives me butterflies in my stomach honestly
🤨
🤨
Do it
Broo you are secretly thinking the buff engineer arent ya?
Tick tock heavy like a brinks truck lookin like I’m tip top
The impression of engineer when he said "not pointed at you" deserves to be in a museum
REAL I LOVE HIS EYES
That glare is gonna haunt me for some time
I still want cosmetic that would remove engie's googles and with eyes being this properly animated
0:51
that fucking little squint he does along with that smile is so goddamn menacing. thats why hes my fav operator
He seems so muhh more threatening with that Texan stare
Being able to see engi's eyebrows move as he speaks is the single best addition to the original Meet short anyone could've possibly thought of.
A real dam shame we can't see his eyebrows move, like, ever.
0:06 I was skeptical at first but the subtle glance to the bullet with an unchanging face is perfect… engineer is my absolute favorite and I love you capture what makes him scary is his sanity
0:50 the way he anticipate for that sentry to blow up that guy's arm is perfect
It looked like he was holding in a laugh when he shut his eyes after
Might sound silly but my favorite expression here is
0:14 , the arched brows on “purview of your conundrums of philosophy” is such a natural expression. Moves like live action to me, such good attention to detail.
Not cursed. He seems so nice and approachable, until the "And you best hope...not pointed at you."
Well done.
The "not pointed at you" part at the end seems MUCH more threatening and sinister with full facial expressions, complete with the death stare and squint of the eyes. bravo!
the sticky jumping demo that got blown out of the sky sent me immediately after tho lol
Dang, he's got pretty eyes 😍
1:05 that staredown alone makes me love this version better.
1:10 Notice Engie looks up to see Demo gets obliterated mid-air after sticky jumping, then Engie laughs.
Honestly the only “cursed” element is that his irises seem a bit too small, but honestly the subtle movements of the eyes and brow add SO MUCH to this scene and Engi as a character
ah, that’s what was making it off-putting for me-
Ngl the small irises still work, that’s how most tf2 models look in the first place. The first one to come to mind is Scout lmao
Man looks humble then all of a sudden gets nearly Medic worthy evil expression on his face
Absolute masterpiece
Plus the lil 420 detail-
He's so handsome without goggle
0:26 Did anyone noticed that the counter doing funny number? Cute little detail, which I guess is a side effect of putting off the goggles
Something about seeing the engineer’s eyes makes his voice fit more. I can’t put my finger on it exactly, but found that neat.
I bet the lack of a tan under those goggles is insane
Bro looks majestic
The fact that we have a goggle-less Engi in the comics but not an official model by Valve (or anyone, at this point) really sets me off.
probably one of the better ones I've seen tackling this slightly cursed idea
mainly because you put a lot of attention to detail in it
This makes him more menacing
This made me realize how much Engineer opens his mouth while he’s not talking
I'm pretty sure someone has already said this, but man, this version of the video really makes the Engineer more "Dell Conagher" then just The Engineer.
Those eye movements are just fantastic. :3
It feels so different yet interesting seeing Engineer remove his goggles even though it only covers his eyes. The eye and brow movements says it all, It actually made me look towards goggle-less Engineer in-game differently. I.. guess he isn't cursed like that after all. He just looks like a normal person
This whole animation is gorgeous but I just love the little details like at 0:41 where he shuts his eyes from the brightness. Just fantastic work. 🖤
Thank you for pointing this out, I didn’t even notice before, but I love that detail now
0:51 I bet he's giving a "HA! Take that!" face.
You really managed to make goggleless and hatless Engineer seem natural. It feels like I'm watching some alternate universe version of Engineer where his design is this instead, very impressive work. By far the best "Meet the No-Goggles/Goggleless Engineer" video out there and you deserve every like and view you get for this masterpiece of eye performance (I'm not joking, it's not easy making eye movements natural and you nailed it)
I imagine it would be meet the soldier without his helmet next,
But other than that this animation is so smooth and I like the subtle expressions in his face and eyes as he plays and watches people die
Helmetless Soldier? More like
American Boot
Soldier without helmet is common, but we still wait for Engie, Spy & Pyro's true face to actually confirmed
Pyro doesn't necessarily have a face, Pyro is a being of unconfirmed species
I remember reading a story where engie had purple-ish eyes. It was cool.
Spy actually has an official model with out the mask. It’s Pretty cool!
@@theepicorn7072mind telling me what
Doesn't Engie have a few comic panels without his goggles
i think the eyebrows and attention to details on his eyelids is what really brings out the realism.
Once you get used to it it’s not so bad. Love the subtle eye movements and microexpressions.
If "cursed" means "HOT!!!", then yes! This is cursed indeed!
This gives more character to someone already that has a lot of it
I just noticed that when sticky jumping demo launches himself, engineer looks at him, and when the sticky jumping demo gets blown to smithereens, engineer shakes his head and laughs. Nice detail there bro!
1:03 holy shit the eye movement here is impressively good
In an alternate universe, this is Engineer's default design and when he has his goggles on, its cursed.
imagine a sentry being able to actually do an air shot with no problem, ooh that would be scary as hell 😨
This adds so much more personality to the character! WHY ISN'T THIS AN OPTION IN-GAME?! *Presses E* "COSMETIIIC~!"
The eyebrow movement definitely gave him a bit of an edge there. Like, the death glare at the end, and that _eeeevil_ grin at 00:50... Chef's kiss. No, I haven't been rewatching this for the past hour, I prommy.
Edit about two months later: Lord help me, this man has been living in my head rent-free for months. He handsome.
I always thought engineer looked cursed without goggles before. But when i saw this he looks beautiful.
the eye movements add so much more personality to him.
the last line
holy shit never would've imagined it could've worked this good
"And you best hope... Not pointed at YOU." Damn, the expressiveness and extra emphasis is just beautiful.
how is this cursed? the animation is beautiful and the expressions are so well done. engi looks good!
That’s the reason. It’s so accurate that it feels like something that actually exists that we were never supposed to see. It’s like looking into an alternate universe.
I didn't think it was possible to make Meet The Engineer better, but you have proven me wrong. Thank you!
I've watched this video so many times that when I watch the original I can still see the eye movements and expressions from this oen underneath the goggles. You did an amazing job!
I want to promise you that the reason this is so cursed is *_not_* because it isn’t good. That’s the _reason_ it is so cursed.
It looks so damn good and is so convincing that I feel like it could be a legitimate version of Meet The Engineer in an adjacent universe where the only differences are minor tweaks to video game characters’ appearance, like Mario’s overalls being brown instead of blue and Master Chief having a black visor instead of a beige one. It feels so good it’s uncanny.
His eyes tell a million stories. Now, I can stare into the windows of his soul. It's something I really wanted to see. Very calm man.
1:07 I always lose on the demoman part.
That stare down at the end was eerily fantastic.
i didnt realize how much eyebrows could be scary
The sheer amount of effort it must have taken to make this not cursed is is phenomenal. Seriously, amazing job. He doesn't feel like Engineer in this, he feels like Dell Conagher, a real human being.
The facial animation in this is amazing. I really like that you added that sticky jumping Demoman to end so the sentry firing rockets into the sky made sense.
the last sentence in the original video already gave me shills, but with engie looking at the camera like this it becomes straight up menacing! Great job!
His eyes and facial expressions makes him look like he's from the Incredibles. And honestly, I'd love that
The fact that 1,4K people watched this and no one disliked is awesome.
10k now
OMG THIS IS SO GOOD, this looks really cool and engineer has a nice face, (you can tell that my fav character is engineer from tf2)
Holy shit you made engineer not scary without his goggles
*Fangirling for Engineer kicking in* 😳😳😳😳😳😳
I like this, the facial expressions make me feel like im seeing the scary side of Engie, the side that compelled him to cut off his dominant hand to give himself a robotic one
I saw that 420 joke
This is awesome, i seriously cannot get over how well this was animated, remade, and such everything about it feels like a re-enchanted verison. Great work.
Oh my god, that is so hot yet so intimidating at the same time. Man is built like a Roman god.
He has such beautiful blue eyes i could stare into them with comfort... In a bro way totally
His eyes. His face. They solve problems of depression, anxiety.
NOW THAT'S A HANDSOME MAN.
I honestly prefer this to the original...not sure why..
Probably because it's smooth, and it's got better quality animation than the original 2009 version. While we love the original, this feels like something that would be released today if the game came out in 2018 or 2017.
Its cannon that he seldom removes his goggles for...whatever reason
I love how you animate facial expressions!!! It’s so natural and it gives him those sense of life to him. All the little details and expressions are so good. I honestly prefer this version to the original because of that. This is excellent
I'm gonna dedicate my life to finding a way to time travel just so i can stop myself from watching this video
Not a whole lot talk about this, but the final scene where the Demoman was killed, you can see Engie look up at him, and then laugh.
That's a good attention to detail.
1:10 I really like how you fixed that lvl 3 Sentry shooting rockets at nothing (in the original),by adding a Demo flying and then getting killed by the rockets.
Honestly, this one is better than any videos, because the eyes and eyebrows movement make him more expressive
Your lighting actually looks so much nicer than the original, very well done!
One of my favorite parts is how he subtlety reacts to the bullets hitting around him
He's gotten two hundred more kills than the original sfm
Absolute madman
