Recently did some art for a novel cover, military thriller-esque. The novel's main protagonist clad in Italian vegetata (vegetato?) camo, custom tactical vest, M4/416 type rifle. Had a lot of fun doing this, but the rifle was a real pain to put detail!

*edit to lighting and some minor detail tweaks, with :iconukitakumuki: 's keen eye.

You can check out the author's book and other interesting stuff at [link]

"As a freelance assassin, Deckard is no stranger to the shadow world of covert operations, but when he is summoned to Bohemian Grove and hired to train and lead a battalion of Kazakh mercenaries, he soon discovers his employer’s real agenda: a doomsday plot decades in the making.

Now, free humanity’s only chance for survival rests with Deckard’s renegade Private Military Company. From Afghanistan, to Burma, and beyond, the clock is ticking down to global extinction."

Freakin' awesome. I can't say anything specific, because it's all amazing. One question, what's mounted behind the PEQ-15? It looks Magpulish, but I can't place it.

Haha, thank you. Its not some funky Magpul furniture, but some kind of dual switch for your light/PEQ attachments.

Seldom see it much, but I just thought I'd add more bling to the rifle just for kicks. :)

Oh, very cool. I've never seen one like that. Seems a lot more handy than taping pressure switches all over your handguards/foregrips.

Man. Your attention to detail is amazing. Especially the work you put into the Assault Rifle. :)

Quick question. What's that optic he's running on his carbine? I think I've seen it more and more lately.

Its an Elcan Spectre.

Those Elcans were a good idea, they have throw lever that goes from 0 to 4x magnification but we pretty much dumped that optic in favor of the EO Tech. Maybe we would have felt differently if we were in Afghanistan rather than Iraq. Looks cool as hell on the cover though!
