Artist's Comments

Weapons.

The first is a spring-loaded dagger. The blade is roughly 5 inches long when "unsheathed" making the dagger approximately 9 inches in length.

However, when the blade is retracted, the dagger is about 7.5 inches.

Easy to conceal, this knife makes a good surprise weapon, particularly if the victim is unaware of the true nature of the object. It is easy to pass off as an ornament or trinket.

The second is a variation of a compound bow. 6 pulleys support the string. The arrows are collapsable. When they are pulled out, a line of energy makes up the bulk of the arrows shaft. The arrows, when in their collapsed state can be held in the pouchs on the officer's belt.

The last is a broad sword. I drew this one last, more as an interesting idea than anything else. It cuts stuff.

Weapons are fun, aren't they?

I really like these designs, and if I had to point towards one detail, it'd be the integration of crystal into these weapons. I am really liking those arrows, though my sketchy knowledge of electro-magnetism is suggesting that the conflicting polarity of the two arrow-sections would look more like static-electric arcing than a light-saber beam. The fact that it would look bloody wicked to see a bow crackling with energy as its drawn back, to then launch the projectile in a lightning-like flash has nothing to do with it.

If you want to pick up a bit of insperation on some of the rail-based weapons, I'd suggest that you'd look at concepts 3-1 [link] 3-4 [link] and 3-5 [link]

Yeah, I'm not exactly a science expert, so I threw together something that might be remotely feasible or believable. The arcing idea is intersting though, and might make for a more ominous looking dart. I'll come back to the arrow problem after I finish some more drawings.

What a fascinating and strategic design for the bow and arrows. The collapsable arrows caught my interest in particular. I wonder how far the projectile might be given the addition of six pulleys.

I have no idea. Honestly, I'm not sure about the mechanics and all that, it just seemed to look technical and cool.
