Real Gunbucket For Real Designs

@Reytuerto
Nothing wrong with posting them here. They are great works and are in the standard GB scale after all, and I don't think there's any point in creating "Grenadebucket" thread.
(btw. long ago there was also a "Swordbucket" in the same scale, but there were just few works there)

Yes! You are completely wright about the "grenadebucket" !! Yes, I even remember the drawing of the british light cavalry saber there, but I am unable to find (or even to remember the name) of that archive .

The last members of the Krag-Jorgensen saga: The Norwegian rifle and carbines:



Cheers!

Nice work!

Name "swordbucket" was never really used as a thread name, but appeared in the comments and there was a short-lived "bladebucket" thread:

Unfortunately there's not much less visible there (but I have them saved, in case anyone needed).

Unfortunatelly, the claymore and the seax and roundel daggers are in a particular scale not compatible with the scale used in Gunbucket. But in the shadows, I can guess that the SA dagger is in the usual scale. So, if you "relaunch" a suitable tópic (Swordbucket!!!) with the drawings in the archive, I could put there a couple of dozens of bayonets (mostly old ones, but a couple of modern ones too) to "feed up" the new topic, and we will have the proper place for swords, sabres, knifes, daggers and bayonets . Cheers!

Good evening guys.
An important handgun of the Spanish Civil War, Star Model 1919 aka "Sindicalista" (for the gunmen of the violent trade union groups).

A Browning based design, it was made in several sizes (in the drawing is depicted the bigger one, often called Modelo Militar - Military Model) and in two calibers. But the guns prefered by the socialist, anarchist and communist gunmen were the smaller ones, which were commonly used undercover. Cheers.

Nice addition.

Hi, Rifleman. I am afraid that the Canadian rifle is not yet done.

Good morning, guys.
I have a Philosophical doubt: May I ask what is the real aim of our drawings? the historical accuracy or the aesthetic interpretation of the real model? I am making this question because I am putting some order in my SMG archive, and I found that the color of the woodwork of one of my drawings (the soviet PPD) was really ungainly (an ugly greenish brown of clear shade, almost a pain in the eye!) which is accurate and very close to the color of the wooden stock of the actual soviet firearm, but far, very far, to be an nice color (like the woodwork of the S-100 submachine gun of the same era, or the british or american dark brown stocks). Thanks and cheers..

The aim of all real design drawings should be to capture the exact appearance and details of whatever we are drawing
