Try 16 inch AR-15 or HK-416, won't have rounds that bounce off people.

this wasn't the final setup for them, this was done when i was on the early stages designing them (two years ago i just realised!!!)
sure, if those people were made of metal.

You should try to differentiate them more. They have the same silhouette, and since they dress all the same (being soldiers) is difficult to tell them apart unless you don't look at them closely.
Characters must be instantly recognizable even by silhouette only. Faces are fine, but people are different even in body structure, not only in faces.

hard to explain, see i agreed with Mr. Powers that, to retain the integrity of our comic, there would be no female Spec Ops, but we'll still have a woman working with Carbon, dunno if just to provide intel or with boots on the ground

I like Dealer's loadout the best. Nice job, and good luck on the comic.

yeah maybe, but imagined them to be more focused on "high speed low drag"
thanks!

No prob btw

T-rex's chest rig is at an awkward angle, other than that they look awesome!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's at a 90 degree angle, so it would be rather uncomfortable to draw quickly as he has to pull the pistol straight up before bringing it back down to engage.
A 45 degree angle would make it easier to draw as he would have to pull the pistol sideways before bringing it up. (I.E. Sandman's chest rig)
