Futuristic Guns - Mood Board
These are some of my favourite futuristic guns from movies and games such as star wars, steam- punk and fallout. I took certain elements from these such as scopes, silencers , cooling grids and clips and merged them into my weapon designs.
Weapon 1 - Plasma Ray
This weapon use plasma which charges up and shoots in bursts. On the front it has a radiation dish which helps with cooling.
The Plasma cores are connected at the front which helps with quick reloading. It also has a magnifying scope for precise accuracy.
Weapon 2 - Laser Rifle
This weapon uses laser energy and because of this it needs a lot of cooling vents. Similar to weapon one, it has a core at the front which allows for quick reload, and as it is using laser energy it has multiple pipes connecting the laser energy through the gun. It has a shoulder grip to help stabilise when aiming. It has a long range magnify scope with laser pointer.
Weapon 3 - Alien Dark Matter Ray(Ray Gun)
This weapon is of alien origin. It uses dark matter as its main power source. I based this design on ray guns portrayed in early sci-fi films. It has two viewing screens that allows you to see how much dark matter is in the weapon. It has a grip at the front for stabilising the weapon and a light which glows when gun is ready to reload, this is done by pressing the button on the back.
Weapon 4 - Sound Energy Gun
This weapon uses sound waves to inflict damage on its enemies, it has a dial which allows you to change the frequency of the sound wave to increase possible amount of damage it can do per shot. It also has a counter which show how many shots are available until reload, It will automatically reload when required. When reloading a light on top will flash on and off until done.
Final Weapon Design
I chose weapon two as my final design as it had the most detail and was my favourite. I recreated it in photoshop. I ensured that the lines where straight and measurements where correct and I added colour and gold trimmings to give it its unique style.
