Designing Weapons Progress

A week before the weapons and armour sheet needs to be handed in, I'll go into the final designs. The Armour will actually be 'Power Ranger' style, with skin tight clothing with a motorbiker style helmet. Armour will be placed over this thin cover, but being set in the future, the armour itself can withstand light fire.

The heavy weapon is now a bazooka which folds into a jetpack (double functions) and can be straped to the users back.

The Robo Cat is a concealed weapon and is smaller than before but is released in secret and attacks the enemy without them noticing with frighteneing sharp speed and claws.

The pistol has been recoloured to the same colour as the Robo Cat. It is more of a functional tool than a weapon. The colour that is chosen by the slider on the barrel determines the effect. For example, selecting yellow will allow the gun to shoot beams of light, to light up any dark areas. This gun can also be used as a weapon in a desperate situation.

The overall theme of this set is the ability to fold away and being electical based. The Robo Cat uses electricity to function, the assault rifle launches arcs of electricity at foes, the pistol uses electricity for most of it's functions and the bazooka doesn't fire grenades or shells but overcharged bolts of electricity which cause a shockwave which electrocutes a reasonable area where it hits.

Edit:
Here are the final images of weapons and armour:

 
Here are the finished weapons. I liked designing weapons and I tried to be creative with them. Aproblem is a lot of the time it is too easy to design something based on something else and leave it at that. I tried to design my weapins based on exisitng technology but tried to add something new. For example, the assualt rifle and the pistol look very similar to normal gun design, but extra futuristic features have been added such as electromagnets and weird colour effects. I think that I should have put more detail on the assault rifle though. MAybe smoothed the lines some more.

I'll be honest, as drawing an actual character wasn't important and the main idea was armour design, I decided to use a pose for the armour. This is quite obvious as the character in the armour seems to be drawn to a much higher quality than I usually draw. I led drawing this though as I didn't have to really worry about proportions. I went for a power rangers style theme of coloureful, skintight armour. I've also pointed out where all of the weapons go within the armour.
