First Gun, I Ever Drew.

Sixsixone

<div class="IPBDescription">Really</div> I've always wanted to try, but I never got round to it.

Here it is, keep in mind it's my first ever gun drawing, and I have noticed flaws in it, such as the silencer is crooked, and the rear wrist is a bit disloged. But i'm quite happy with it for a first time. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

And the colour is a bit crap, it got smuged on the support.

It looks much better on paper, due to the fact my scanner sucks and is 5 years old.

That's one funny picture <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> .
I am not laughing at you nor at your skills, but this pic is just funny.

Now to constructive critics, not bad at all for a first try.
The geometry is the main problem you should work on. Keep practicing.

<i>VERY</i> good attention to detail - the shell ejection port etc. all look very realistic. Good stuff.

Ballisto

A tip to get the perspective right - draw a rectangular prism, then put the gun into it. Eventually you get it by feel.

Sixsixone

Thats a good tip ballisto, I'll use that.

Autosalesman

If you just fixed the perspective, it could look real good.

[NSA]Sixsixone, look at your picture. Then enforcers.

See how everything stays nice and parallel in enforcers?
That's the key to making a good gun. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Uploaded a picture for referance between yours, enforcers, and the "parallel" one (all i did was add lines. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

[that was the only thing that was wrong with the entire gun though; excellent job on everything else. And yes, i do realize that some guns have bent muzzles, but only by 1 or 2 degrees, and often only at afew inches away from the very end of the gun. why? shooting around corners. why not a smooth 90 degrees? it just doens't work with large turns. it does, however, work for smooth turns of about 3-6 degrees.]

Thanks guys for your help, and thanks enf0rcer for straighting it out <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Here's a quick doodle by me, maybe this'll help you get the idea more. It is so hard to draw with a mouse! I kind of made the gun up on the spot (<b>you </b>actually go to the trouble to do a real gun ^_^). Notice the perspective on the legs, how the one in the foreground gets bigger, and how the one in the back gets smaller. And notice how the shadow makes him appear off the ground.
