[edit]

Images appear copied from gun manufacturer product shots, not own work.

It is not and they were photos taken and edited by myself. You should not assume just because they look like product shots, which in fact they are not. This is hard work of other people and you shouldn't assume without knowing the full details.

The images were photographed first, then edited in the following flow in photoshop to achieve the look. First, the image was loaded on the layer with pure white as background, then everything else in the picture was cut out apart from the gun. Then gun layer was copied onto another layer and used High Pass filter to have rugged looked. Then all layers were combined into another layer, then used Gradient to turn black & white for the result. It's hours of hard work and stupid for you to assume and accuse that "not own work". Do you even realised how much hard work that has gone into create these images? This is the kind of reaction that put off people from contributing to Wikipedia. It's shocking!!Okkar2018 (talk) 16:57, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The reason they suggest not own work, are size, quality, file size and variability of quality between the various images, as well as the metadata. Calling names of others is not COM:AGF. Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 21:09, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The size, quality and file size are reduced in post production to reduce time it takes to load the picture. You should not assume without knowing technical reasoning behind. The quality was purposely reduce to ensure the speed in loading images. Okkar2018 (talk) 07:40, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The image for the MA-5 MKII is right here. Ominae (talk) 15:42, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Similarity does not mean its the same. Get over it!Okkar2018 (talk) 07:40, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Other B&W images of the stuff are found here. The shot of the MA-S DMR resembles this shot. Has the same riflescope in the image. Also mate, you'll have to explain why a well-known firearms blog in North America has the same MA-5 MK II pistol that's in the commons.

Also found the shot on where the pic of the sniper rifle came from. Ominae (talk) 08:28, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
