i think his arm is covering it, that thing is really giving me aug vibes and the grip doesn't look like it takes a mag
I'm not getting aug or even bullpup vibes from it, but it's also not worth arguing over; even shitty art is art and is thus up to interpretation by the viewer.
i'm prepared to argue about this. if it's meant to be a specific gun then one of the three of us (including the artist) is simply wrong.
including an example of a rails-less AUG for comparison.
I can sort of see an aug if I squint, but the caricature art style really makes it look like the handguard flows directly into the stock, and there's not enough room for a mag in there. Also the barrel is just absurdly long for a bullpup, which I think is the main thing that's throwing me. this looks to me like if you asked a version of midjourney which had never seen an AR or an AK to draw an assault rifle.
yeah i think the barrel is long because the flaccid wouldn't come across as well if it were shorter... or that's meant to be a suppressor?
yeah that's fair. looking at it more closely, I can see what you're saying, but it's just too cartoonish for me to fully make the connection, idk.
anyways now I want to build an AUG so thanks for that.
