Another one in similarly shitty style, and... oh my God-Emperor I suck at faces and lighting.

[Kot]

Eyyy, what's wrong with it?

Also, I never claimed to be an artist myself, so eh.

Behind the trigger finger, Commissars don't care about gun safety.

[Kot]

It's far future, I ain't gotta explain shit, I get what you mean but I don't think you should really see the trigger from this angle, especially since there is a finger in the way and because of that I can't seem to manage to fix it and do it properly, I can only screw it up more. Dunno, really.

[Jopax]

It could use a trigger yes, also the lower part of his hand is kinda wierd, the joint shouldn't be that big if the hand is bent that way. Other than that and some other stuff that can easily be considered a stylistic choice, pretty damn good work.

Anyways, something I've been noodling on for about two weeks now? Not sure, it's finally done and was pretty fun to do.

I have some other ideas with these guys in mind, may or may not pursue them further, depending on stuff.

Nice rendering on the metal there.

The poses you pull off are really impressive for pixel art, Kot. Well done. I have no problems with the way he's holding the gun, real officers do all kinds of funny poses with their guns to look cool. His hand seems a bit big though.

As for the gun, it looks like a severely undersized laspistol, and laspistols have a rearward trigger set into the grip (http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/8/82/Accatran_Pattern_Mk_II_Hvy_Laspistol.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130309035156), which to me it seems you actually should be able to see it just a little. On the other hand there's so much bloat in the 40k setting that I doubt any fan would bat an eye at Kot handwaving it as a super special pattern of handgun. The writers do that shit all the time.

At any rate I did a slightly changed version (http://i.imgur.com/CHZBFpv.png). I made his glove a little shorter near the wrist so his hand doesn't seem so long, and I added a few pixels suggesting a trigger.

The leg armor doesn't seem very securely fastened but the overall design is so dang cool that I don't really care.

Not intended, though yeah. I totally love to handwave Death Korps Of Krieg (and Armageddon Steel Legion) regiments as using way more autoguns and stubguns as they should, resulting in ridiculous amounts of Mp40s (more like Mp40000s) and Stg44s in far future, though official canon is also guilty of this as there are huge amounts of AK derivatives (understandable), M2 Browning lookalikes (also understandable) and AR15 knockoffs (in Wh40k reality those should proably count as one-shoot weapons, hue).

EDIT:
Gib ideas.

[Jopax]

@GUNIN
Yeah, it's supposed to go around the back too, but I probably should've connected it to the chest plates somehow. In any case, the whole lower body isn't as good as it could've/should've been but I really wanted to call it done after a long time.

I got to draw this super cool ram fella.

You can only do so much to stop a Death Korps Grenadier when he decided that you and the wall between you and him is HERESY!
...I think of doing one of Death Riders of Krieg next.

That grenade launcher looks like a modified version of the old British "Pom-Pom", basically a 37mmHE Maxim fed from a top-mag.

Warhammer 40k weapons, especially Imperium weapons, are basically the most distinctive and/or ridiculous weapons from history given a gritty sci-fi makeover.
