Not bad (1000% better than what I've got up this month ). A tad on the big side, though.

Well, you could always give it a shot and see how it turns out. It might not be bad with some sharpening. Or, if you have a layer that is not airbrushed (I'm not sure how you went about this, or if you airbrushed it all from square one) you might just try shrinking that down.

i tend to think of a pistol as a weapon, rather than as a machine.
just my opinion...

Umm...?

velvetrose: isn't a weapon merely a highly specialised machine?

Gee, I didn't even notice that when I first posted that. I would never stoop so low as to make such a lame pun.

And yeah, guns are machines too. Even an inclined plane is a machine, for that matter...

mas: relax, we knew it was a joke. (or at least I did)

InSiDeR: that's more like it. Although, the name is a bit hard to read. It is there, though.

Ah, as for my submission. Ah, yes, well, um, er... let me get back to you on that.

*looks at calendar*

Still a week or so left...

*LOL
i guess i should have said, a machine gun may qualify as a machine, but i tend to think of a pistol as just a weapon.

[edit - anyway, that was my thinking when i first posted]

sorry bob, this post makes 15 posts for 1 sig.

a gun...
1. A device consisting of fixed and moving parts that modifies mechanical energy and transmits it in a more useful form.
errr... YUP
2. A simple device, such as a lever, a pulley, or an inclined plane, that alters the magnitude or direction, or both, of an applied force; a simple machine.
errr... YUP
3. A system or device for doing work, as an automobile or a jackhammer, together with its power source and auxiliary equipment.
errr... YUP
4. A system or device, such as a computer, that performs or assists in the performance of a human task: The machine is down.
errr... a gun assists in killing

I think that is enough...

now a note to *everybody* who posted there thoughs and opinions (I am not excluded)... GO HOME. Shut Up. Drag your mouse to PS and wake a friggin SIG.

lets try this again shall we?
