Yet another set of designs in today's colossal art dump! Featuring the Echoes of Elsewhere, the MP10-C, the Tech West Set, and the Tempest .50!

#art #digitalart #weapondesign #gamedesign
The Echoes Of Elsewhere is a Legendary-Tier futuristic AK pattern rifle that comes from a different timeline entirely. Constructed from a triangular patterned blue alloy, the Echoes of Elsewhere looks like a modern weapon while still maintaining its AK family lineage. The MP10-C is a lightweight polymer machine pistol with a high rate of fire. Pictured here is the default MP10-C, and one of its cosmetic variants, the "Purple Reign". The Purple Reign is fitted by default with a flared magwell, EZ pull mags, folded stock, sound suppressor, and a Reflex Sight and finished in a splatter pattern purple camo. The Tech West set blends Wild West flair with high-tech weapon designs. The MX-4 Southlake is a highly ergonomic pistol perfect for duels at dawn. The MX-8 Laredo is the modern day repeater rifle you've been waiting for. The MX-12 Abernathy is a hard-hitting 12 gauge stagecoach perfect for keeping your convoy safe. All three weapons are black and gold with wood furniture and bright cyan LED accents. The Tempest .50 is a pistol that has more in common with a cannon than a sidearm. Chambered in .50AE, the Tempest .50 is an overweight and oversized pistol that can contend with primary weapons. The weapon is finished in black and red, and pictured above is the stock variant and a fully modded variant. The fully modded variant is fit with a low-profile RDS and cowitness iron sights, low-profile laser sight, ergo grip and custom rail cover, flared magwell and extended magazines, Magnum suppressor and a competition trigger.

Even more fresh designs for yall after my long hiatus! Featuring the Gamblers Arsenal, the LVOA-C, and the SG-338.

All of my designs were previously made on Colors Live on Nintendo Switch. Ive since switched to Infinite Painter on my Galaxy S23 Ultra! Been loving it so far.
#art #weapondesign
The MXII-Showdown is a custom built revolver chambered in .357 Magnum engineered by Aces Armaments. The MX-II Showdown is a red, black and gold revolver themed after a roulette table. As part of the "Gamblers Arsenal" set, the MX-II Showdown has a guaranteed chance for one of its 6 rounds to deal bonus damage, and an additional 15% for other rounds in its cylinder to inherit this damage bonus. The High-Roller 3RB-L is the sister gun to the MX-II Showdown and is also engineered by Aces Armaments. It shares the same red, black and gold design and also has a matching grip and gold playing card suit inlays. As a weapon in the "Gamblers Armory" set, this weapon has a 25% to double its magazine size when reloaded, and a 10% chance to triple it. The SVOA-C is a standard pattern AR-15 style rifle chambered in either 5.56 or .223. Designed to be as familiar to its users as possible, it's easily modifiable and deathly accurate. Pictured here is the default SVOA-C and a cosmetic variant dubbed the "Tactical Vampirism". The Tactical Vampirism variant is black and grey with red honeycomb accents and pre-fit with a laser sight, ow magnification optic, sound suppressor, angled foregrip, flared magwell, easy pull magazines, and a thumb hole stock. The Sekiguchi SG-338 AP is a bolt-action sniper rifle inspired by Bungies upcoming extraction shooter "Marathon". Designed to be lightweight and highly precise, this weapon is perfect for medium to long range engagements. Its finished in bright yellow and blue, and features branding from in-game biomechanical company Sekiguchi.

Back from a long hiatus with a fresh fleet of firearms. Presenting the Apex-RL rocket Launchers, the Viper-EMR and Taipan 7.62 from Reptilia Research, and the lightweight and versatile RX-25 Airfoil!

Expect a lot of spam here in a few, I got a lot of new stuff to share with yall!
Pictured above is a pair of rocket launchers. On the left, the high explosive Apex-RL HE. This rocket launcher fires traditional rocket propelled grenades. On the right, the Apex-RL Energy. The Apex-RL Energy fires extremely volatile bolts of superheated energy that explode on contact and burn their target upon direct hit. Pictured is the Viper-EMR Electromag MK.II, a fully automatic electromagnetically actuated railgun assault rifle. The Viper-EMR is heavy and rather unwieldy, but hits hard. The gun is finished in black and grey with green camouflage accents. Its green lights indicate the weapon is powered on. This weapon was engineered by Reptilia Research. The Taipan 7.62 is a assault rifle designed for controllability and comfort while maintaining the power of the 7.62 cartridge. The Taipans internal recoil mitigation system works to keep the rifle under control while under heavy fire. The weapon is finished in a green dot-matrix camouflage and was engineered by Reptilia Research. The RX-25 Airfoil is the ultimate Runners weapon. Designed for maximum mobility while still having respectable power within its 5.56 cartridge, the Airfoil is perfect for run-and-gun maneuvers. The weapons weight-saving measures allow for some extra weight in its 50 round magazine. This specific RX-25 Airfoil has been decorated with a smiley face sticker and bandages on its magazine, and features red polymer front and rear grips.

New from Frontier Arms, the Widowmaker shotguns! Go with the Widowmaker-P for maximum pump-action reliability, the Widowmaker-L for one handed lever-action operation, or the Widowmaker-S for lightning fast semi-auto fire! #art #weapondesign #gamedesign #videogameweapons
The Widowmaker shotguns, all finished in a camouflage pattern with black, grey and tan detailing. The Widowmaker-P is a pump-action shotgun designed to be simple and reliable. The Widowmaker-L is a lever-action shotgun designed for maximum mobility and the ability to operate one-handed. The Widowmaker-S is a semi-automatic shotgun designed to put as much lead down range as possible. Here, the Widowmaker-S is depicted with a standard 12 round magazine, but can be equipped with high capacity 30 round drums.

From sketchbook to digital, I present the Blitzen L-ADV and S-ADV. Originally starting off as the "Blitzer Carbine", the Blitzen L-ADV and S-ADV are rifle-caliber guns designed with recoil mitigation in mind. The Blitzen comes integrally suppressed.
#art #digitalart #weapondesign #gamesesign
The Blitzen Platform firearms. The Blitzen L-ADV (Long Advanced) and Blitzen S-ADV (Short Advanced). The L-ADV is a rifle-length gun chambered in 5.56 or .223 with an extended barrel shroud and integrated suppressor. The S-ADV is a much shorter PDW-length gun chambered in 5.56 or .223 that cuts down on length with a much shorter barrel, stock, and handguard. Both weapons feature a gray and orange color scheme with orange hexagonal detailing on the sides. The original design of the Blitzen rifles. Drawn by hand and originally called the "Blitzer Carbine". Very few changes were made between the original design and the final product. Drawn in black and white with pencil.

A man says to his partner "before we fuck, please consult the consent puppet." His partner asks the puppet "do you consent to sexual relations." The puppet scrunches in its mouth Kermit the Frog style and goes HMMMM. Then it opens its mouth wide and goes YAAAAAA to the delight of the two men.
