It looks very nice, although I suggest making the trigger protrude a bit more.

Very odd cartridge. If you are going for more of a PDW, I would suggest you slim down the round and lengthen the case (something like 6x30mm, or 5.5x35mm), if you are going for an SMG/pistol round, have a larger bullet, perhaps 9x22, or 10x22mm.

Well, technically, they are either 'buckler' or 'target' shields, judging by the rounded shape. Without seeing the arrangement of straps and/or handgrips, you cannot make an accurate judgement. It's a trick question.

Maybe he wants something in between?

I don't see the point of that, it wouldn't have the velocity or penetration of PDW round, and it wouldn't cause as much tissue damage of a regular pistol round like a 9mm parabellum.

A Spartan spear are best known as a sarissa. As for the swords, I can't remember if they're falcatas.

The weapon with the clubbish head is a mace. Not to be confused with a flail or morningstar, which is a spiked ball on a chain.

Maybe the first sword, but I am not sure.

It could be a high-pressure loading, like built-in +P+.

Needs to be heavier, the recoil would be far too much with such a light gun, go to 8 or so kg, because the Wz. 35 fires a round that probably has less power than yours, and weighs almost twice as much as yours when loaded. Also, I wonder how much an AP round could penetrate with such a large cartridge.

I currently, and as long as I have been on NS, always used Photoshop CS2. Never ever Paint.NET.


Do you draw on Photoshop? I was always good at manipulating on CS2, but I didn't draw stuff from scratch.

Could probably increase the effective range to a kilometer or more.

My heavy snipers are armed with NTW-20s, which I wanted in 20x110 Hispano but the 14.5mm Russian had better range.
