she's cute....

Wow, I'd let her shoot at me all day long!

She needs a bib with all those hot casings striking hot tits.

*puts on kevlar suit and stands in front of gun for hours on end*
She is frickin beautifull

The big let down is the gun.
The pose is great, and while i admire the uniqueness of the addition, the gun is just too.... much?

It unfit for the scene at hand and makes the mind focus on it, and just it.

An all too common mistake...

Aside from the criticizing, it's all well drawn and the detail for so little is magnificent.

Well no one will ever accuse me of not experimenting a little and when you do that, just like cooking, some people love and some don't. I'm just trying something other than the everyday AK47 and AR15. Seen a million of them and have drawn fair number myself to!

I cant blame you for the change.
It's just unfit for what's at hands.
Like ordering Pickaxes and getting chainsaws instead.
...
I'm a fan of the Boise Anti tank rifle myself.
The first true 13.5mm anti tank rifle.

Well then I this piece will just not be your cup of tea. You'll just have to wait until I get to Playing with the Boyes. Which won't come around until the end of the year.

>.>
You she-devil!!!
Boise AT rifle rocks :P

My vote for next experiment is the A-10's main cannon. O:3

GAU 30-mm *drool* You're dead before you hear the rounds leave the barrels....

Rosemary's my most fave character of yours next to Melody, Jessica, and Petina DeMouse

Skunks make the best gunners, no one wants to sneak up behind them cause they have the rear-facing weaponry.

I love her and the gun. I love prototypes that go nowhere ^.^ Her modeling for it helps too :) The white background makes it clean and simple

Actually the amazing thing is that the Vilar-Perosa wasn't just a prototype. It went into the production for the Italian Army and Air Force. It was one of the strange crew served weapons since in the beginning you had a 12 man crew assigned to what was effectively a submachinegun!

Considering the fact that the US Army at one point fielded the M1928 thompson with a bipod and long barrel, calling it an 'automatic rifle'. that's not so odd. There was a time when folks were unsure exactly what to do with their machineguns. Witness the British mounting the Vickers on huge wheeled mounts like artillery pieces, up until the beginning of WWI. The Vilar Perosa wasn't a bad idea, even if the operator looked a little strange, advancing to the attack with the gun rusting on a tray hung around his neck like a peanut vendor's.

Oh and don't forget the nifty gun shield they had which weighed more than the weapon itself!

Yeah! One man for the gun two for the shield. What were those military guys thinking.

That weapon looks so small, seems portable as well o.o

Cool, looks great.

Ah, the Vilar-Perosa M1915, a reiarty theses days. Considerd a smg, even if it looked more like a lMG. Typical italian appraoch of things. I would have voted for a Bermann MP-18 or MP-28 myself. For that piccy here, I would have sugessed a M60 MG, it would fit, ya know.

Ya know, beauty and the beast style, you could have given her a M-82A1/M-107, now that would be serious firepower and it would be a stark contrast, giving a girl like her, a beauty and sexy girl, a girl that would make the Venus of Milo envy with her curves, a weapon like the Barrett, a brutal ugly looking, 1,40m long, over 14kg wighting weapon that can kill people on 1.500m.....now, that would be something. XD

Well, not to make your current picture bad, of course not, its well done and I like it. The gun is a nice touch, its something totally diffrent from what we normally see. You are alos one of the few artists that draw and actually know about the Vilar-Perosa M1915.

Keep it up man, keep it up.

Well One of the things I'm trying with the girls with guns pictures is finding in new weapons to do. I've done Rosemary with a M60 "Skunk and Pig" I've already done her with the M82A3 "Big Stick" this doesn't include the The Uzi smg, AKS-74U, M4 carbine, Steyr AUG, M249, MAC10, S&W 638, and a HK PSG-1. Jessica has been posed with a Remington 870, HK VP70, CETME Ameli, 12ga whipit, Ithaca 37, Colt 1911/1911a1, and I already have a Lewis LMG in the works with her along with another with her and a Vicker. This also doesn't include any of the fictious equipment that I'll be doing in the near future.

Well, what about one of your girls with a USAS-12 pr AA-12 full auto shotgun? Or with the Jackhammer? G11, G-3 and G-36 also work, along with HKs new MG-4. Just some suggestions. AS for older rifles: why not try a Mosi Nagant or a SVT-40 or M1 Garand and M1 Carbine? Oh and never forget about the Thompson. XD

Not only is it rare to find actual photos of this type of weapon, but you've gone and adapted it into your art! Nicely done!

It took many an hour in library and rummaging through quite a few web sites until I found the all the photo angles and information I needed. What was particularly annoying is that there two variants. One, the type in "line of Fire", is the infantry model. The other is a version intended for the Italian Air Force for rear seat gunners. They have important differences to them but not even a lot of the books on the subject made that clear! It resulted in several false starts on the project. Glad you like it!

Ah, yes. I noted that it was the infantry model. I had come upon this weapon (and variants) while doing research a few years back - hence I was amazed to see it end up in your work. Great job.

That is the funkiest looking gizmo. I've just spent the short side of forever reading up about it with what I could find online.

Oh, and the skunk's not half bad either. :)

Yeah it was a real Rud Goldberg contraption when you figured in the huge number of men who were suppose to service it in action. At least they scaled the crew size back fairly quickly, but then again if you didn't volunteer to scale them back I'm pretty certain the enemy would try to pare your crew down anyways! You can't hide a dozen men behind a gun shield!

It'd work fine. You just have to make the people stackable.

I'm personally dribbling at the idea of having a double barreled machine gun, regardless of it's archaicness

i think i saw a gun like that in a gunshow once but WAY smaller, like it goes on your desk at work and fires 22.'s

Egad. Is that a Gast-action gun?

Rosemary couldn't be any sexier if she tried. I love her pose and dreamy expression.

oh.....very intresting. I also saw this in person at FWA

Cool! I'd like to make it FWA sometime in the future, but I'd like to start attending several of the Furry-cons around the country again. Sigh, money is tight now so it it'll have to wait for another day.

I feel your pain.

I think that's one of the very few weapons I've seen with spade grips that wasn't mounted on a tropid or some kind of vehicle or aircraft. And of course you have a very impressive gunner manning that relic as well.
