Description It's been a while, but over the while I was gone, been dealing with a lot of stuff around where I'm at, and quite frankly I felt like in still do in some ways feel like straight up butt. I had to squeeze some motivation out of me to actually do this joint.

This is a fan art of Resident Evil's Ada Wong, and what made me draw this was when I thought, if Ada was a agent that made little noise and kept her presence truly in the background, wouldn't she be using a weapon that was whisper quiet? And I mean literally whisper quiet.

Call of duty got people believing you can put a suppressor on a gun and it's already whisper quiet. WRONG! Even if you put a suppressor on a gun, if you're firing standard ammo, you still got to deal with that supersonic crack of the standard ammo's muzzle velocity, and it'll be herd from opposition because of that supersonic crack. The only thing a suppressor is good for on a supersonic gun is if you're clearing buildings so you won't go deaf from heavy unsuppressed loud ass fire, such as some of the soldiers in Afghanistan.

Now what a suppressor is truly good for is firing with subsonic ammunition. And if any military knows that better than anyone, it's Russia. Russia made the 9x39 subsonic round for many special forces units within their military for recon and assassinations. The fact that it doesn't have that sound barrier crack of the supersonic round makes it a silent round, and coupled with a suppressor makes it lethal quiet. Altho all of this greatly reduces the muzzle velocity, and the weapons range, it has much more stopping power than a silenced MP5 and better armor penetration with the SP-6 round than most assault rifles.

Since I figure Ada's style is to tread lighter than air, the weapon she's using is the AK-9, a variation of the most well known and used rifle on the planet, designed to fire the 9x39 subsonic round for the elite Russian forces. As she shoots, I have no muzzle flashes just smoke, cause that and the silence of the subsonic round makes it that much harder to detect the shooter. And on strapped to her right leg is the PSS silent pistol which only holds 6 rounds, but is even more quiet that the AK-9 and has adequate stopping power. As for a fan's look into her future, gave her black hair with a red shine, tactical gear, a black desert scarf with red butterflies on it, tan skin since she's in the desert, and a toned body. I went a bit dark with the shades, but that was an experimental act on my part.

I had to think a lot to draw up inspiration for this piece here, and it's my first fan art in a really long time, especially in color. Hope y'all like it. Peace. BIGZ.

Ada Wong and Resident Evil belong to Capcom

Stumbled on this just now. I love it! Can't put my finger on what it is, but it looks very much like she's using real-life combat tactics. One thing that you should think about next time though is not to let her right elbow press to the torso. Instead, let it stick out horizontally to the side. It looks cooler, gives more balance, and that's the way I was taught to do things when I was in the Army. Other than that, awesome picture!

Man, your RE fanart is always so fun and creative! I gotta show some of your works to one of my best friends here, she's a die-hard Resident Evil nut. ;D

Geez, I love that explanation on how suppressors really work, because you're absolutely right! From what I've studied about suppressors, they're very misunderstood and misinterpreted in entertainment media. Frankly, they just slaughter and bastardize suppressors and how they sound and work. Subsonic ammo is the way to go if you wanna use them effectively. I've heard that suppressors are actually supposed to disguise the sound of the gunshot, more so than actually eliminating the sound all together.

The 9x39 is a cool cartridge! My personal favorite rifle in that caliber is the AS Val (Well, my first name IS Val, so that's an added bonus ). The AK-9 is definitely a sleek weapon to give a fun and sexy character like Ada! Great work on this piece, bro!

Yea, there's just so much to suppressed weapons that entertainment doesn't take into account. It's like the only guns that fire suppressed rounds and sound right are weapons with pistol caliber rounds, especially the .45 since it's subsonic off the bat. Yea the AK-9's supposed to be a cheaper alternative to both the 9A91, AS Val, and SR-3M, but I picked it cuz I drew a million AKs and I was trying to draw off of memory. Thanks a mill for the postive feedback as well bro. Much appriciated.

Oh yeah, it's really irritating how game developer, Hollywood, etc. just assumes suppressors, or "silencers" all work the same way. Another thing that really gets to me is the use of a silencer on a revolver (a revolver that ISN'T the old Nagant M1895). That's just mechanically and physically impossible for a conventional revolver to work with a suppressor.

AKs are fun and simple designs that are quite easy to draw from memory. Good choice!
