You don't have to do EXACTLY like the tutorials, but they give you some basic ideas.

Study the details of real weapons, just doodle and doodle until you get something that looks good, then you do that one over and over again until it looks even better.

Experiment, a lot. Take bits and bobs from various weapons and stick them on each other, to see if you can work out something interesting. Does it look like a good base for a weapon or is it just a scope on the Shadow-Warrior Uzi (for whatever reason that would make sense)? If it's the former, work around with it, toy with the idea, try making a brand new weapon based on that thing.
