ZDoom is art! :)

Also, the new sprite version looks pretty good.

Unfortunately, I think you're right.

With smoke puffs, why not do them via the weapon's decorate anyway and have it spawn a couple of smoke actors instead of having them drawn directly on to the weapon?

Yeah, i'll forget the smoke.
But what do you thnik of the weapon overall?

I think I'd prefer it if:

it wasn't so big - ~120 pixels tall puts it 3/4 of the way up the screen,
it was made of less joined together bits - it still looks like a bunch of weapons grafted on to each other,
the individual bits were not quite so recognisable both as familiar weapons and as individual entities.

IMO, it would be improved by removing one of the top two muzzles.
eg, something like this very rough edit is one possibility.

I know that you want to make it big and impressive but ATM it will either fill the screen or have to be pushed down so far that you can't really see half of it anyway.

You have improved it a lot since the first version though.

Besides the smoke I think both look fine. The older version now looks like its an attachment to the newer version, like an upgrade kit

It's looking pretty good now!

Except that smoke is honestly terrible, like un-funny joke-wad quality, please remove it.
