C&C welcome as always,
 
It looks like an extremely unconventional drill . . I guess it should look a tad more like an ordinary weapon, something one might actually use . . imagine using that thing for real ;)
 
well, the trigger looks like crap...

it's supposed to be something advanced, but you go for ergonomics no sane developer would go for...
 
I don't think it is supposed to look super advanced. Look at the bulky space suit he posted before. I think this fits perfectly.
 
yeah im going for a retro futuristic style, thou i suppose your kinda right about that trigger, i should rework it.
 
..

not bad fonx, the overall shape of it is a little unbalanced. Depending on how you want it to be used you should make appropriate to stance? e.g. miniguns are held (left hand over, right hand under, below waistline) a different way to say a rifle (both hands under, shoulder line). your design seems a little unconventional... try repositioning the handles. (just my opinion). looks mad otherwise!
 
thans, yeah were defeneatly going to play around with the handles, the orignial design wasnt as bulky as this, but since it looks better that way the forward handle has to be dif.
 
might i suggest making it have 3 or 4 of those "probe" things on the front aranged in either a triangular or square shape? for some reason id think it would look a little more "realistic."

id also rework the handle...
im not sure how big this weapon is because there isnt any reference

if it is the size of a minigun, id give it minigun style handles
 
yup, were gona rework the handle, havent realy looked at how minug ones work but im pretty sure i have the same idea in mind,

as far as the probe things, i think 2 are going to be enough, considering they spin when the gun is firing.
