For all to whom it applies: I'm working on all commissions at the same time so I can close shop for a while so I can jobhunt and work more hours. Please be patient while waiting for updates. If you haven't seen progress, it's because I'm missing parts.



I see a lot of Longstrike mods out there, and with VERY few exceptions (Vanbangerbuger's Steampunk Rifle and adamski1616's Scifi prop are the only that come to mind at the moment) they all look pretty much like the Longstrike always does, and that pretty much always annoys me. People who are otherwise extremely creative in their builds seem to put in less effort with it because, frankly, it looks pretty good already and they don't have to do overmuch to the build to make it look cool. But this is me we're talking about. So of course I schlocked it the hell up the way that only I can.



It started when two base guns I had bought for commissions- a Longstrike and a Firefly- became 'free' when their commissions either fell through or were changed. Seeing as I've always wanted to make a scifi/cyberpunk rifle the likes of adamski1616's superb work, I used this opportunity to do so.



I carved out the front of the Firefly, used Epoxy and Glue to marry the guns, and then did my thang to the new amalgam. The result is the gun you now see above. Should be painted up in the next few days. I really like how it's turning out. And, of course, it still works... as well as a Longstrike ever worked, anyway.
