Webley MKIV Police study drawings
🕑 Added 2024-08-29 17:48:13 +0000 UTCDevelopment art for an upcoming commission. This piece will have the female character wearing a 1950s Singapore uniform and wielding a Webley MKIV Police revolver. Now I have drawn Webley revolvers in the past, but not the MKIV, so I decided to do some research about them.
When I started researching this I thought it would be neat if I could find some examples of Singapore Police Webley MKIV Police revolvers. Well the only examples I could find of Webley MKIV Police were surplus Singapore Police revolvers.

Apparently in some cases different sequences and duration of blasts could inform fellow officers the direction and number of suspects an officer were chasing.

Out of curiosity, how would you "ponyfy" Singapore?

I honestly wasn't aware that was the reason why police had whistles, I thought it was just some vain attempt to make suspects stop running, since they're often shown blowing them while chasing after suspects.

I'm trying to figure what sort of exacting context would lead to someone *specifically* getting art of an anthro horse in 1950's Singapore and nothing is coming to me, but I'm fascinated by the idea that someone needed something so precise.

Yes the twilight of the Empire.

So, right at the end of British control. Should be interesting. 'Axe

This will be an interesting one to see how it turns out indeed.
