Kiara system - My concept of rifle from near future built of composite plates based on "minimalistic" and functional design. Hope you like it and wait for comments if any. bye.

Dimension: 2048 x 1176

P.S.
Its rifle/shotgun concept. rifle is up and bottom part is shotgun. bad is that I didnt put difference in magazines so they look nearly same which could be confusing...

P.S.
I'm available for freelancer jobs. If you want to make offer then I'm open for debate.

It's a very cool design, I really like the the functionality of the front end and the built in optic but I am afraid it falls apart once you look closely at the rear. Again, as with literally all of your bullpup type rifle designs you have left way too little space behind the magazine for any kind of bolt to operate and extract casings. Same goes for the shotgun module, there is simply no space or way the rounds can travel from the magazine to the chamber, especially if it is a self loading mechanism. Another weak point (also repeated in many of your other designs) is the enclosed pistol grip that looks severely cramped for both the fingers and thumb. With any weapon design, function HAS to come first and be at least theoretically feasible.

I would suggest you look at some real world weapons and also some internal diagrams showing different operating systems. One important rule of thumb with bullpups is the pistol grip is generally around the mid point of the overall length. Anyway your designs show real imagination and great aesthetics which is why it is frustrating to see you keep repeating the same flaws. They would literally be perfect if you gave real thought to functionality.

Another amazing design. You have taken the best elements of the P90, AUG, and G36 and combined them into a stunningly elegant and beautiful creation. Sleek curves and hard angles merge to form a natural, functional shape that, while not in use today, could be found on the battlefield of the future. Not even the weapons from Crysis looked this cool. You have a real gift when it comes to your designs, as you manage a near-future look, with a science fiction twist. Even better, you manage to add elegance to a highly functional design without compromising the original purpose of the weapon. Your work continues to amaze me, and I hope you never lose your inspiration.

Well done. You've successfully made me feel bad about my modeling skills...
What program did you use?

Amazing work! Both modelling and design, this weapon looks way better than those seen in most games and movies.

About the design - meaning that there is not enough space at the rear for the action - I don't find anything out of the place. I can easily imagine a telescopic or an electromagnetic bolt in such a rifle, which would certainly require less space.

But to split hairs, a three stage switch for fire selector is impractical, a rotating type switch is easier to handle.

Just imagine using this gun... I don't even know where to start... there is a bar code and 3 different safe system... good luck putting that on fire...
