Description The first concept I can show from my over 4 year long work period at Syndicate.

Gun concept I did when I worked on starbreeze studios, for Syndicate - published by EA Games.

check out the game homepage here (it looks GREAT):

I loved this gun in game but is always seemed like (in 1st person) there was a M16(A1) deep down under the cowlings.

Great work!
Please tell me... is the name "Kusanagi" an homage to Major Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in The Shell?

Actually, the first thing I noticed about this gun was how similar it resembled the M392 DMR from Halo: Reach. I really like the very large handguard and the traditional magazine layout is neat as well! Nice model!

Yeah, this is an awesome gun. I wonder if it might work well with a silencer attached to the front.

I'm a big fan of Starbreeze's Darkness and I was just wondering, when you were working on the game, was it in good hands?

Also, nice work on the rifle. I kinda like the design of this more than the final product but I liked the colors on it more.

Hot damn.. congrats man! I would be incredibly proud to lend my skills to such an iconic franchise.

How do you feel about the game currently? Well... from the trailers and all it seems the MP is nowhere near the same level of polish as the SP... kind of a letdown. But we'll have to see won't we

Conclave81 [2011-12-13 15:50:48 +0000 UTC]

Syndicate was great on the Amiga. A very different game, 3rd person type, but with the same feel as in that trailer (near future Japanese mafia vibe)
