Dane might have some competition :-3
Very nice touch with the arrow decals painted onto the stock, VERY original.
The safety looks innovative as well, but I can't help but notice it's indicating that the trigger is locked in its position.
In closing, the trigger looks as painful as the bullets.
So fast...
Not really...
I guess it's ok :)
Looks really nice at the moment. though the trigger looks a bit weird...
Looks awesome, completely regenerates my love for snipers.
Thank you Teh Lag :3

Maybe, 60-70% done here.
Grip would look better in black IMHO.
Just fool around with it. Most great things are caused by accidents or not really intended to do them. I'm sure something will happen.
It's looking fantastic, really! Keep up the good work.
If only the Ma5k looked that nice. (my way of saying re-skin it)
The MA5K skin is awsome, just that model sucked.
Well hes already asked kenney. :downs:
Lag, the scratching and wearing on the gun near alot of the places is too sharp and evident, and way too consistent. I'm liking the colour scheme, brings interest to the gun. Leave the grip blue.
However the bump is a bit too harsh. Keep up the good work :D
I like the massive wear near the bolt, makes sense there'd be alot of friction against it considering how fast the MC reloads the thing.
Oh and silentwind, it's not an opinion the MA5K model sucks. Sneeze hates it too.
The foundational problem with that weapon is that the design concept needed more refinement. The way it came out looks like someone winged it.
The reload was interesting, but I'm 90% sure that magazine's shape and size didn't allow for a 48 rounds capacity, not to mention the fact that the bottom of the hook-shaped butt that housed the magazine was a major impediment to the magazine potential capacity.
And if you take a look at any of the S-III art, the rifle looks much different. It's jet black, a lost sleeker and not as curved. Not to mention it's small, and that for a bunch of 12 year old Spartan III's. Imagine how small it should look on the chief.
On the cover of Ghosts of Onyx, you can tell that neither the MA5K that the S-II is holding nor the one the S-III has is jet black, so I'm not sure where you got that from. Also apparent on the cover are the proportions of the MA5K to the S-II and the young S-III, which are pretty precise to what CMT currently has for it.
You can't really tell on pictures of the cover, too low res. But on higher resolution paintings it has a very shiny black paint job. There is one specific screenshot that I can't find that should prove my point.
Well I sure as hell don't see no shiny black paint job
It doesn't get much higher res than that.
Edit: Got owned by hotlinking. Fixed
I need access to firingsquad.com to view the image?
What the heck did that post contain of flyboy?
This Picture.
That is the cover correct, but the picture I'm talking about is totally different.
Even if it's not official, trust me, the gun looks better dark.
Apparently not enough yet.
Handwavium can only be used so often before it too becomes irritating, just as people griping about realism (such as myself) can only gripe so long before we become irritating. The two need to be balanced.
I'm not really down with the colour scheme. Seems to all over the place imo.
The texture/colors are pretty good in my opinion, fits the gun. =D
Agreed, its pretty nifty that it looks like something thats pretty designs actually seem like they would be used for something. (black & yellow safety)
