<div class="IPBDescription">I need links for reference pictures</div> Yes, this is my second straight post, so what the hell.


Anyways, I have this project I need to finish by Friday for English and what I am doing is a big drawing on Gun Control and Bowling For Columbine. I will be using a large sheet of Strathmore 400 paper and will most likely use 2b pencils, not charcoal. What I need are some LARGE reference pictures to AK-47's, even better, someone holding the gun above their head (clear pictures); pictures of SWAT in action, particularily pictures of a guy shooting; and some images of people gasping in fear. The idea is that I am going to mishmash all these drawings into a giant mess (no perspective, just mess) in an effort to get the idea of fear, violence, and how they relate to guns, across. For example: the hand will be severed from the elbow with blood dripping out and in essence will juxtapose what Charlton Heston said at the NRA meet: "from my cold dead hands..." I hope to also include a picture of the world trade centers exploding, nuclear bombs exploding in the background, frantic eyes and expressions, televisions with eyeballs in them, and other things which should, hopefully, convey what I want to say. What I am doing is the impossible and I have one day to do the whole damed mess. God help me....

On a side note: I feel like an idiot just sitting around without absolutely no inspiration to draw and ideas to fuel me. Its like I'm just sitting here looking at a blank piece of paper with a cruddy layout I sketched. Dang you Mrs. Horw...!@#!@#@ ...Force me to draw just cause I can draw decent.............................................................................................................................................

EDIT: BTW, I have looked everywhere and I know there are some sites out there, but forget exactly where I once saw them.

    That guy with the rifile looks like a beatnik wearing a hockey referee uniform.

    I grade it as "I" as in "incomplete".

    I'm giving you an extension, you monkey!

    junior highschool makes you do crazy stupid things like that. dont ask why jsut try to help.

    oh, and a bloody broken arm wont really win you any brownie points from the teacher.

    be sure to search for pictures of al-quaida, because they sure seem to love holding ak47's above their heads and shooting them.

    These pictures aren't exactly very big, and I think you already know this site, but I'll post it anyways:

    Also...

    That first one was enter the horror.....this one is horror reloaded.

    The kid now has a horrible sunburn (probably 3rd degree burns) and he upgraded his shorts for only 5 dollars. The swat dude was taken over by agent pig, and got 3 new weapons : the pistol, nightstick, and of course the donut - which is a mystery to men....no one knows what it does. The ground did stuff....so did other things......like I said.....

    It reminds me of an evil Ewok....a very evil...black and white...Ewok.


    On-Topic:
    If you're looking for pictures of guns, besides those already presented (especially world.guns.ru):

    <a href='http://www.waffenhq.de' target='_blank'>WaffenHQ</a> It's in german, and I don't think there's a language option. You can click on Infantrie and it'll give you a list of infantry based weapons...the Kalishnikovs are pretty high on the list.

    [small update] After checking the AK-47, there's a picture gallery at the bottom of its entry...scroll to the bottom and click on 'zur Bildergalerie' and there's 5-6 more pictures
