Description A Upotte!! character suggestion by .

From the country of chocolate and waffles comes the FN Minimi Para.

This Belgian product is FN Herstal's 5.56x45mm Nato belt-fed Light Machine Gun.

Contradictory to its name (Mini Mitrailleuse), the FN Minimi Para is far from "mini" at all. Though it is one of the lighter LMGs out there (only 6.56 kg), it has the suppressive effect of 15 riflemen!

Due to its great performance and stellar reliability, it has been adopted by +45 countries in the world and is one of the most common LMGs to be seen.

I know its hard to give out a color in a black/white drawing, but if it was colored, she would have had the same purple-ish hair color as Funco. Also I couldn't find much uniqueness to give to an LMG. Only thing I came up with is giving her a head/sweat bands as she is prone to overheating...

Good suggestions. It's been a while since I did a Upotte character. Hope I can do one soon again.

Soap971 already did a great job in personifying both the FN SCAR-L and SCAR-H. Don't think I need to do them again too.

SCAR-L: [link]
SCAR-H: [link]

The FN F2000 I have not seen done yet. Strange, as it is a great and unique rifle. I think I'll do it later. I'd like to keep some variety in weapon types and countries. So it won't get boring.

The Chinese QBZ-95, South Korean Daewoo K2, the G36E, along with the Soviet RPD light-machine gun.

The RPD is supposedly Minimi's rival.

RPD? Doesn't that one use a drum mag? I think to be a rival you'll need an equivalant belt-fed, like a PKP or a PKM.

The PKM's rival is the FN MAG.

The RPD uses a drum, but the ammo is belt-fed...

She does have an older sister, called the FN MAG.

Samipie In reply to shooter2170 [2013-02-20 06:57:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, she does. But unfortunately MAG-chan is not that popular as a squad weapon as Minimi-chan is.

Next character suggestion.

The M60, of course.

Oef...I don't know...The M60 is huge...It's heavy...It's The Pig! I wouldn't know where to start.

How about the Kriss Vector?

Beacause the P90 and MP7 are already in the manga.

But not the Sten and M3 Grease Gun, let alone the Arisaka Type 100

Samipie In reply to shooter2170 [2013-02-21 20:32:22 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the Kriss Vector is a nice idea. Need to think of something first how to sketch that unique angling bolt into something for the character.
