Automaton Atkins

[ffutures]

This is Automaton Atkins, the automaton soldier described in previous entries. The left hand is a grenade launcher, other is a human-style hand. Not sure about the look of the head, I'm thinking of changing it to look like a painting rather than a photograph. Comments gratefully received.

Don´t see what you have against the head. Of the doctored parts i´d say
it blends in the best with the rest of the original image.The right hand gun seems a little dainty.

The RH gun is actually part of the original picture. It's supposed to be a .50 rifle, which would normally look big, but since Atkins is supposed to be about eight feet tall it's presumably built to scale with him.

Forgot to say that my main problem with the head is that it looks a little asymetric. A bit too much like something a masked wrestler might wear.
