OH HELL YES!!!!

Postby Seismic Sam on Wed Jan 18, 2017 10:30 pm

Pictures from the Lowe's parking lot in Covington, LA. You will note that this is officially Veteran's Parking, which is another cool thing about Louisiana. At first I was sort of taken aback by the sight, and didn't know what to make of the Anime graphics, but the license plate was DV XXXXX - Disabled Veteran. :flag: :salute: From the decal by the left mirror, this would appear to be a designer edition car/graphics. The rifle is very clearly 50BMG caliber from the size of the magazine.
It took a little while, but finally an image formed in my mind of a disabled vet who had decided that what was left of his life would be lived HIS way, and an image like this was just what the doctor ordered. The black spatter at the base of the graphics really captures the idea of close bullet strikes.

Found the original art - the gun is a Barrett M82A1, and she's taking some pretty heavy damage....

Possibly the reason that he/she picked this graphic. You don't get a DV plate for a flesh wound requiring 10 stitches...

Could be a female vet which would be even cooler (in my book).

Do the proportions on the barrel look to thin for a .50?

Considering it's Anime art, the exact proportions of the barrel may be a little off. However, from the Barrett chart of very real badass rifles, the 98B in 338 LM looks to be the closest match.

I hate to break it to you, but the bust-waist-hip proportions are a little out of whack on "Trucker Girl" mudflaps too. :)
