I like it. I'm not sure if it's just angle though, it looks like the bottom half of the top sight might be a bit obstructed. Still looks pretty interesting.WanderingFool said:This was just a little test I whipped up.
I got the idea after watching a sigment of GTTV [http://www.gametrailers.com/video/mission-1-combat-facts/710237], where they talked about the amount of realism that is actually in FPS games. Near the end of the linked video, they show the hybrid sight. This is basically a ACOG scope with a Red-dot attached to it.
Let me know what you think.
They look cool, but I'm not really sure what they're supposed to be. Possibly a shotgun of sorts? I really like the aesthetics though.TheRightToArmBears said:I must have made these two sometime last year I think, I vaguely remember making them. Aesthetic crits?
Nice camos! The last and first ones are my favorites.And if someone hasn't already told you, welcome to the Escapist, and stay out of the basement. It's where Slender Man and the souls of the banned live. Or maybe it's the souls of the band. Either way, stay out.GrantM said:Here are some guns that I made a while ago, but recently made camos for on Photoshop.
Crits and opinions welcomed. Thanks!

Well I did not like that at all. And yet it was fascinating. Huh.Sn1P3r M98 said:Here, you might like this. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.211546]GrantM said:Thanks!

They're all pretty good, bravo. Some of your designs are pretty jive, too, like the big green bullpup rifle. Lovin' it.the monopoly guy said:snip

That's really awesome - I love the idea of a shotgun with a cylinder/magazine hybrid system. The adjustable pump is a great idea, and the little notches on the underside of the heat-guard really sell it. The sights on the top are also perfectly placed, giving long-eye relief and good-looking spacing for the RIS (though I'm not sure whether long-eye relief is appropriate for shotguns). Another good point is that the grip and stock are compatible with M16-family attachments, meaning that it can look quite different with only a few changed parts.WanderingFool said:Here is another shotgun I whipped up.
I named it after the shotgun from Brink, which does have a similar magazine system. It is a pump action shotgun, the pumping machinism works differently from normal pump-action systems; when the gun is pumped, the pumping action works a screw based machinism that spins the magazine, as well as re-cocks the firing machinism. The magazine slides into the bottom of the gun, and connects the pumping machinism with the firing machinism.
The magazine itself is exactly like a revolver cylinder, and is made of a high-grade durable plastic to reduce weight and also can holds six shells. This particular model has a quick replace feature, but a another variation has a unremovable cylinder, and can be reloaded in a similar manner to fixed cylinder revolvers. the speed of reloading said model was much slower and tedious, so the quick replace feature was designed in.
It has a pair of sights on the barrel, with a RIS set behind.
Its last interesting feature is the pumping handle, shich is adjustable, allowing for the handle to be moved for maximum comfort and efficiency.
Honestly, I think I would say this is one of my best works... Im quite happy with it.

XML? Thats the export code, right? If it is, than yes. oh, and thank you.NimbleJack3 said:That's really awesome - I love the idea of a shotgun with a cylinder/magazine hybrid system.

A brilliant design, and one that I enjoy just looking at. Do you still have the XML for it?
That it is. Could I get it from you? I'd love to have a play around with your shotgun.WanderingFool said:XML? Thats the export code, right?

Do you think that the quick-change design would work on a revolver? I've been meaning to sketch one up, but the parts don't exist... I figure that the cylinder would just drop out of the bottom, but the shape that allows for that disappear in the 1850s. :/WanderingFool said:shotgun
I think pushing a cylinder in place from below without the structure you get on a rifle would be pretty hard. In any case, here's my version of WanderingFool's epic shotgun, with a standard pose and an awesome tilty action-pose. Which actually makes it look better, for some reason.sooperman said:Do you think that the quick-change design would work on a revolver?

I suppose the attachment would be awkward. If I could rig up a pin that catches the cylinder, it might stick the way I want it to but still drop out like a semi-auto. Hmm. I guess there's a reason I've never seen one before.NimbleJack3 said:I think pushing a cylinder in place from below without the structure you get on a rifle would be pretty hard.sooperman said:Do you think that the quick-change design would work on a revolver?

I like the dual sights. I dident realize that the Acog mount you are using actually allowed it to swing infront of and out of place. Goona remember that for my next hybrid sight weapon.NimbleJack3 said:Note that the second image is a high-resolution one, by way of taking a snapshot at 200% size, and may be slow to load.No, it's not. Stupid me. I've gone and thrown away the original, slightly crappy first version that had the high resolution.
The high-res original.
i think sturdier (yet probably not as simple) idea is to make the revelover a top-break, like this:sooperman said:I suppose the attachment would be awkward.

Nice shotgun, by the way. The little details really do make a difference.
Bah. That looks like the most practical method, but not the one I wanted. Oh well. I'll run with it.WanderingFool said:i think sturdier (yet probably not as simple) idea is to make the revelover a top-break.
Then the cylinder could be removed and replaced easier and also make the gun for sturdy. I originally was going for the repeating shotgun design from borderlands, but I couldnt get the part to work for me.
