you've got the right forum. ill download it and check it out
the only thing i found to be modded graphically was the desert eagles.. and those were too large and bulky
but the weapon mod was ok..lagged when i played with bots but would be fun online

if i had a artist this would be done quicker >.> i suck at doing graphics for the DEs all i did was copy the spaz barrel >.>

Good Job. And, oh yeah, your sig breaks the rules. The pic is too wide, just look in the rules section ;)
And one of your pics isn't working right i think.
I got m72 LAW name twork fine. My guess is that the new name has to be the same amount of characters (7) as M72 LAW, but im just guessing.

Actually, the number of characters doesn't seem to affect it.

Here's my honest opinion. Take it or leave it.
It's cool that you're just starting out in modding, and you seem to understand the basic principals of modding. And it's great that unlike some other people, you aren't just recolouring outlines or ripping off others work.
Quite obviously you're using paint to make your weapons. - There's nothing wrong with that. However, all of them seem to be lacking shading, and quite obviously you've just drawn onto soldats default weapons and used parts of them as parts of your guns. I recommend you remove these parts and draw your own over them. Then when they're done you can think about shading.
I personally dislike shading in paint. I find it tiresome and time consuming.. So I use Photoshop for shading. You should try downloading a secondary program such as GIMP or Paint.Net for this. (I've never used either so I wouldn't be able to help in that respect)
Basically.. You need light and shade on your weapons to give them depth and make them look more three dimensional. You also need to try drawing weapons from scratch instead of just working onto other weapons.
Your mod is a cool idea, but it's going to take alot more work to get it looking beautiful.
