Hello,
It has been a while but I finally got going on the Sniper Rifle. Here is a draft drawing, still have a bit of work before its complete, but I wanted to get some feedback to see what you all think before I finish it up.
I have to say that the talent that I am seeing on this board is incredible. I almost didn't bother with this piece and I am still not sure that my old 2D drafting skills are up to the quality of work that I have seen displayed here lately.
This has to be one of the hardest weapons to get right. The images from the game are so distorted that it makes getting the proportions extremely difficult. I finally piece together 6 or so images to try to get it right. I then used an image from the Weta live action ODST trailer to confirm the proportions were correct. Luckily it was a long shot so that the perspective distortion was minimal. I assume that Weta had access to the 3D model from the game when they built theirs so one would figure that it should be pretty close.
