Gun design

[Nysuatro]

I have made my first gun design. Was a lot of work. Dont know anymore how much houres.

It is a school assignment.

Pleas tell me what you think about it.

[⌐■_■]

im not sure what is for, but it looks like it isnt made for heavy duty. more like a supersoaker. can't quite figure out what the back 'thingy' is suposed to do. it looks a little bit like a toy but maybe that's exactly what youre aiming for.

i dig the small pipes connecting the parts of the gun btw! what did you use to draw it?

I made a very stupid mistake by forgetting a hole in the front. shitty .. hehe

The weapon is supposed to be a weapon that can shoot true walls. It works on steam.

I did everything in photoshop. And i used a wacom ( intuos and a graphire)

Thx for the comment

You should have looked a real life weapons, weapons in games and such for inspiration. That weapon looks like something you'd start with in a space game and the weapon is so crappy that you'd rather use your fist

It doesn't look beefy enough

Also; What does it shoot? A mix of 2 liquids that are in separate tanks?

It looks a lot like a weapon Martians would have in a sci fi movie of the 50's , which is actually not a bad thing haha. However, the biggest grief i would have is that you got too much repetitions on your design.

You have a lot of redundant shapes : the two tanks in the middle, the two little spheres of the back, the pipes, the things between the tanks, maybe you could rework a bit the silouhette and add more variations of size and so on.

Thx for the comments guys. Will keep it in mind for my second weapon.

The weapon was designed as a high pressure weapon for shooting trough walls.

btw: the concept is steampunkweapon, maybe if i had used some color for the rendering it was more obvious
