A Certain (not so) Scientific Railgun

grabcad

With the recent new season release of a certain anime (i'm sorry but I have to do this :'< ), I think this is good time to share this model to the community.This model is purely a work of fiction. Please do not take the mechanisms described below too seriously!This railgun features an unconventional 4-pronged rail structure and a separated power supply from its cartridge. The cartridge also serves as a pressurized gas canister. The canister provides special gas underneath the rails which will turn into plasma as the weapon pre-charges to fire. The plasma will ensure the conduction between the rails and the armature as well as preventing friction from direct contact. The battery supply can provide up to 2 fully charged shots before replacement. Digital scope is included for precision aiming in any lighting conditions. LCD screen on the slanted face immediately behind the rails provides critical information including weapon condition, battery power, etc. The weapon supports ambidextrous handling, as cartridge can be loaded from both sides.Weapon model design inspired by EM-4 Cold War (Titanfall 2), Peacekeeper (Apex Legends) and many more.Bipod model belongs to its original creator Zachary Gilbert.This is my first attempt at making a full weapon model. Suggestions are appreciated!Note: This model is created in Solidworks 2018 and rendered with Solidworks Visualize.
