At the momen i am not looking fo details but rather the shape. I think the front of the gun is fine but i dont know how to do the back of it. Any suggestions.

EDIT:
After playing around for a while I decided i did not need a full gun shape. Here is what i came up with. i was trying to make something o do with the title of the first Knightsbridge Chronicles game, Genese.

Search for pics on google, colt 45 is probly what your looking for
Yo, Alec.
There isn't much to say about the shape as of now, simply because I am not sure what kind of gun you are trying to create here.
But anyway.
Check this tutorial out, might help you.

I had a look and pretty much copied the shape to exact.

I havn't looked at the pic that you copied from but is it me or is the trigger big.
Sorry if it is meant to be.

Here is a Glock 17 from Austria. Standard hand weapon of police forces around the world (incl. LAPD) - don't take anything else if you can get one of those babies!

Andail reminded me some may feel offended by me joking about guns...

If we have to revel in weapons, could we at least skip the salesman-talk, Albert?
I really hate that jargon.
Alec, since such a big part of your logo is a barrel of a gun, you should make it much more detailed and realistic. Now it's hard to see what it is, since it's just a black square, mostly
I've tried adding detail bu as of yet, i have not succeded in making anything of quality. I shall continue trying, but if anybody wishes to paintover it will be greatly apreaciated.
Regards,
Alec
I went for the same style you used on the bullet (though I reduced all to 4 colours. Maybe you like it?

btw. if you look at Andail's post, you can see that not all people are attracted by guns - some even repelled by the image - so you might think twice before using this as your company logo.
EDIT:
Now I know what you are aiming at (pun intended) you might consider using an old fashioned revolver - since they have a much more recongnizable sillouhette (did I write that correct?) when you are taking only the barrel.
Here are some variants of the historical Colt A.S.S. "The Peacemaker"

@Andail:
Sorry, I was just joking - since I have been a professional soldier for several years, I sometimes forget not all people are as easy about guns as I am. No offence meant!
Im a bit confused, is this gun gonna be ingame or just a forum sig?
Albert:My friends dad was on the cover of Soldier of Fortune, that the kind of professional soldier you talking about?
Just practice art. Sort of like a banner for the first KC game which i have titled Genese. Not for anything but rather to improve my drawing skills.
Regards,
Alec
