Daily Deviation

Ok, it looks like I've rated this piece very highly, but to some extent that's because it's pretty technically superb, with the huge level of background detail, seemingly holographic roadsigns, the very clear direction of the primary light on the sniper, the smoke wisp from the firearm's muzzle brake, the very natural way that the chain link fencing has been broken...

There is one glaring flaw with it though. No-one could fire a weapon with that sort of barrel length relative to themself accurately unless it was supported by both a barrel support along most of the barrel length to prevent barrel droop and a bipod or tripod mounting to prevent muzzle shake. References that show what I mean include the first 15 minutes or so "The Expendibles 2", various episodes of Mythbusters (search YouTube for Mythbusters, Kari, and sniper rifle), and the first couple of episodes series 1 of the Anime "Black Lagoon".

As ever, if you wish to discuss this further, I'm open to helpful comments.

Awesome! :D

Can I use it for a game, granting you credits, and an annual percentage as it turns commercial?


Please consider my offer :)

Pretty darned epic, generally speaking. Also, the cleanness and the detail combine with the mist and the glowy-ness to create a really nice atmosphere with a great sense of moment.
