Another Geind revolver, this one a later model than the previous one I just posted.

As with the EL-522 this one employs the same principle of using flechette (Shett dart or SABOT) shells that have a special resin that the weapon sends a charged jolt into which fires the round. The handle on this one is a straight up combat grip rather that the simulated catalin the previously posted model has. Geind's naming conventions for their shettier designs are by model number only. They're well known for revolver designs.

Forgot to note that I started riffing off old west 1800s revolvers, not modern weapons, when I began this batch of thumbs. I more or less deconstructed aspects of those old guns I found interesting and put them in the TKP blender.

Pencil thumb converted to digital inks and colors in Photoshop CS3.

More pending...

Very nice, kind of reminds me of the Judge. perhaps consider making a longer heavier barrelled version for longer range/accuracy?

Thank you, I appreciate it! All I can say is just keep at it, keep looking at real weapons for design ideas and just experiment. The more you work at it the better you'll get.

Best!

What are sabot rounds anyway?

They are typically a flechette round with a break away casing (the SABOT which breaks away after leaving the barrel) to hold the round steady in the barrel when firing. They have been used in small arms and have been proven accurate and deadly effective.

Okay, what's a flechette, I thought flechette was like spines loaded into a mussle
