Passion Fruit Games

Some friends of mine have been working on a new project over at Passion Fruit Games. They are getting ready to release a new game!!  Its based on a romance novel by best-selling author Marjorie M. Liu. This is the same group that made Nancy Drew Dossier: Resorting to Danger! and was called the “Best hidden object game of 2009″ (yahoo games)
Yes I know it was made by a different company… Passion Fruit Games split off from HER Interactive to make and produce their own games. Hopefully they will be making some pretty exciting stuff. I’m looking forward to it!

Star Trek TOS -Iron on Insignia (Engineering)

I made this as a printable iron on badge as apart of my Halloween costume. Curiously I could find no other similar art, or really even high res images of the badge.
This particular badge is for Engineering/ Security (red shirts). more info on  insignias here.

Challenge- Future Weapon

Continuing to work on the melee challenge. This still needs more details, but definitely the way I want to go. Added two Tesla coils, I thought having two or three would be a unique arrangement. not so. After some research I found out there are devices far more powerful the Tesla coils, Pelletrons although they are much less exciting looking as its large industrial equipment.
Some of the bigger generators of any variety can hurt someone. Not with the smaller ones, size matters. So these need to look much more futuristic to escape that fact. You know, defying physics and all.

Challenge- Future Weapon

Requirements: Futureistic Melee weapon, non projectile
Challenger
: Yael Maritz
Edit: after some thinking, I’m going to replace the bug zapper but with a Tesla coil  or some arrangement of the kind.

idea:summery

An electrically charged staff weapon, with basically a bug zapper at the end. I like the stylization of old gas light poles, the handle part will take be based on them. yes it will glow.

Preliminary idea, its terrible really, I need to work on it.
