I was looking to see your crits on my Alien-ish gun

For the low-rez image that it is, that is a nice alien gun! Maybe it's just me, but I think the green should be a little paler.

I agree with Lava. I just toned down the value a bit. That way the green doesn't punch you in the face. Could probably do lowering the value a bit more.

Did it just for the sake of doing it and it does look more appealing.

Hi,  :)

Nice weapon you got there. I think it portrays what it is as first glace.

I think this could be improved by looking at some rifle pictures on good ol' Google.
from what I saw the part of the gun that goes to your shoulder is generally flat at the top and unless this alien species has tiny T-Rex arms the grip and and the scope should probably be moved further to the right as well.

Here are some guns on similar scale to yours from a game called Cortex Command (which I highly recommend CC has a **** ton of guns btw)

notice how the artist crams a bunch of detail into the gun with different shades of a color.


One more thing. You should post your images at their original size. The people here can increase and decrease the scale by clicking and shift-clicking the image respectively.
