Chaingun Gfx help

[Admins]

Several people have suggested to add a chaingun:
It takes some seconds to start it, but then it fires many bullets without interuption and with farer distance than pistols. But it also takes more ammo and makes you walk slower.

Update: Sorry found the old gfx for this, up/down direction are not so nice but its ok for the start, will be added soon.

[Redwizard]

could you direct me to this graphic so i can see if it is possible for me to enhance it?

[Gambet]

Here you go..

[Redwizard]

thank you gambet. 'lets get cracking' ;-)
This is what i have done so far, as you can see, the shape has been altered. i will darken the back area at a later stage. in need of criticism first :-)

[Gambet]

The backpart that you made makes it look like its going to shoot rockets.

Looks good. The up/down directions should be worked on first though I guess

[Redwizard]

depends how you look at an image in which should be worked on first.
With me, i draw the side images first, then rotate it by 90 degrees, and mark out the highest points of the gun with a red line. i mould it from there then lol.
As for this weapon i do not think i can make very good up/down angles, but i believe they will suffice, as the shape is roughly the same

[Gambet]

Why did you put that copper color at the top of the guns? It looks like rust and its ugly on it...the rest is neat.

[Blitz_Hunter]

Yea, some of that rusty lookin color could go, but other than that it looks pretty hot.

[Redwizard]

oh no its not rust; its the colour of the barrel while its shooting, heh the ones with coloured tips are shooting sprites

Note: Barrels glowing red like that from shooting is BAD. Means the metal is hot enough to change shape easily. Change in shape leads to gun malfunctions. Sure it looks neat, but that's just poor engineering.

[Redwizard]

nothing to do with overheat x-x just the change of colour as the orange light from the shots illuminates it lol

Looks nice, with animation
