A fun private commission that I got to do. A Star Wars sniper character, but maybe the Star Wars visual call outs might not be too obvious and be useful for other sci fi settings. I don’t have a ton to say about it, although it was a totally digital creation. Usually I do a pencil sketch, but this time I wanted to work a bit more with my cintiq. The initial scribbles where done on separate layers, along with some reference that patron gave me. I did this at work during lunch over a few days. The camo texture was provided by the patron.

Very nice! Was the sniper rifle patterned on any existing real or fictional weapon?
This is awesome! Love your stuff.
Sean Gomes If you look closely, it is patterned after a stormtrooper blaster, which is really a Sterling SMG w/o the banana clip, but short clip circa 1975. . I was provided with reference, with the stock pretty much a modern bullpup design grafted onto the Sterling/Stormtrooper body with a lengthened barrel.
Ahhh good, that’s why I asked, I kinda got the inkling that it was a modded Stormtrooper blaster (didn’t know about the real-world equivalent, neat), but the stock was throwing me off.
Thank you Alfred.
