I'm aware. The picture is linked to that website though, so, I don't know?

so you don't know

I don't know what you're trying to ask me. I'm aware the site contains porn. Is that what you're asking?

[Bajireyn]

Hey guys,updated the Rangers!

Not bad...

Thanks,any ideas on how I could improve it?

I didn't credit because 1) The image I used as a base didn't have any name on it (I didn't get the same one you posted there) and 2) I never claimed credit for making it myself, nor was it implied.

Jesus.

No need to treat me like a murderer...I'll not do it in the future, alright?

2) I never claimed credit for making it myself, nor was it implied.

Unless you state you didn't make a drawing or part of it, claiming credit is always implied by the fact of your posting it in this thread. That's why you should always own up to your sources, even if they don't have signatures themselves.

You know you could just say "Okay, I'm glad you're going to figure out who to source"

Plus, if there's no name on the god damned image how do I even?

thats not how you draw windows in sbscale
you dont need a searchlight
that torpedo set is ttly ww2

also set your photobukkkit size to 1mb so it wouldnt distort your shit

What to do, try to add more detail to the hats, add a bandolier or two to the non greatcoated soldier. Make their faces different.

>>>wrist collars

You mean 'cuffs'?

Yes, yes I did. I shall blame my error and absence from this thread on work and stuff.

I was planning to redo the bridge anyway since the proportions look a bit off, but right now the ship's on the back burner and I'm putting it off to when I make corrections to the radar sets. I'm still debating what to do with the torpedo launcher, I like the WWII style ones but I'm not crazy about the location.
Do you have any advice for what to replace the searchlight with? I want to have some sort of searchlight since I foresee using my ships in an anti-smuggling/piracy role and anticipate the need for some sort of illumination. Perhaps I should just draw a smaller light?
And thanks for the Photobucket tip.

remove it

oic
in that case make it more modern or something
also, all surfaces you can walk/stand on are 3px thick

OK, thanks again.

I have a build request for both JG Scale, and the middle unknown creator template here.

I need a HULC exoskeleton.

Pretty much, they are now going to be standard issue to all heavy gunners armed with a modified M240 so that they can carry a larger version of this /this with less fatigue/stress across the battlefield.

As you can see by this pic, this build should be more then realistic for MT, and it fits the rule of cool bill to boot.

Thank you for your time, and have a nice day.

Updated version, made their faces more individual. Corrected the credit text and added some stuff.

I'm currently resurrecting an old project - designing a family of revolver style railguns. The aim was to design something Dirty Harry would use if he lived in the 24th Century; the Model 29 if Smith & Wesson made railguns.

So far I've made everything besides the pistol grips and triggers. The plan is to have at least two variants; one with a functional design, ergonomic handle and a built-in rail along the top, and an ornamental variant with a wooden handle, ironsights and platinum plating and inlay around the handle so it basically looks like a fancy duelling pistol.

It uses the same battery as my other guns, so when I started I copied the part of the battery which is visible in my other designs and pasted it in as you see it in the top drawing. It's the thick tube with the glowy bit under the barrel. Thing was, after progressing pretty far with the design I realised that based on my previous work the battery tube was a fair bit longer than it needed to be so I cut it down to the minimum length, as seen in the middle. However, I wasn't sure of the disparity between the length of the tube looked bad, so I tried cutting down the barrel length by forty pixels - the equivalent of 5cm - to get the bottom image.

Thing is, now I can't decide which design looks best. I think I'll keep the compact version with the 150mm barrel either way, but for the 200mm barrel I can't decide whether to go for the longer or the shorter tube for the battery. What does everyone else reckon?

[Eireann Fae]

Aesthetically speaking, I say keep the bigger battery. If we can have AAA and AA batteries, surely you can have a larger model of your own batter, no?

Try making a variant that uses a disposable fast change battery, you twist of the battery holder's front, drop the dead cell and jam a new one in.

I actually modded mine to look like a rail gun, just twist off that little thingy under the barrel and slot in a twelvie - like candy from a baby.

Yeah, and how annoyed do you get when the AA batteries in your TV remote go flat and all you have in the house are AAAs? Both use the same battery, the question is simply whether the longer tube for it to fit in looks better than the shorter one on the 200mm barrel.

Having two different batteries for what is essentially the same gun would be like having the M16 and M4 carbine firing different ammo; no benefit, no point, and only an extra pain in the arse for your logistics personnel who have to make sure the right batteries go to the right people. One-size-fits-all is better wherever you can manage it.

The battery can already be simply yanked out by hand and another shoved in; you don't even have to faff around with twisting off thingies or whatever. The batteries are also rechargeable because again there's no benefit to making them single use.

Actually, I don't own any devices powered by such batteries :x

If it's just about "looking better", longer tube anyway (which I answered with the first bit about aesthetic appeal). I just didn't see a reason you couldn't have batteries with different capacities. People that carry around machine guns don't carry around two different models (and if they did, I'm sure there are models that fire different types of ammo). They carry the one gun, and the ammo they need for that particular gun. As it stands, there are at least dozens of bullet calibres, for weapons of varying sizes and styles. If you're going to have two sizes of the weapon, what's wrong with two sizes of battery?

Tl;dr: longer battery case regardless of battery size :)

I know what you're thinking: did he use 100% of the charge, or only 85%...
Here's a thought: the battery size would depend on the weapon's capacity and the round it's chambered for. For example, a .38 revolver with a six round cylinder would use the short battery, while a .38 with an eight round cylinder would need the long battery for the extra two rounds, and a .357 or .44 Magnum round would require the long battery for six rounds.

As for your question, I say use the battery tube length as a sort of manufacturer distinction. The short tube resembles the Model 29 with S&W's short ejector shroud, while the long tube looks like the newer model Colt revolvers.
