Description
This artwork depicts a weapon which is a part of my sci-fi world's lore. Do not copy the design, use it in your own artworks, or claim it as your own!

Lore and Description:

C6I "Frixus" is an assault rifle made by Staris, which shares some design elements with J7I "Keshtan" , a submachine gun from the same manufacturer. Heavy use of polymers and composites lead to this weapon being notably lightweight. It even fires hybrid, partially polymer-cased ammunition, to further reduce weight and allow soldiers to carry more magazines. The weapon is usually used with a targeting unit similar to the one on the Keshtan SMG, but more sophisticated. When wirelessly linked with a smart helmet, the targeting unit displays useful information (like ammo count or distance to target) on the helmet's visor and projects a crosshair directly into the soldier's line of sight, which can even compensate for target's movement. This feature allows the weapon to be fired accurately from the hip or from behind cover. 

As standard for most modern weapons, a set of acessory rails allows various attachments to be added to the gun. The stock can also be easily replaced. The weapon can fire in semi or full auto.

Inspiration and Background Information:
This design is basically my J7 Keshtan SMG, upscaled to assault rifle size. As with the Keshtan, the design takes inspiration from some Cyberpunk 2077 weaponry. There is also an influence of the R-x01 series of assault rifles from Titanfall/Apex, most notably the curve of the magazine.

Used Software:
Affinity Designer
