IDW 63: Deep Space Starfighter
Winner: Panda
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Verpa Class Gunship

As a deep space fighter, the Verpa Class Gunship is easy to produce and easy to fly. It has a single large cannon and stores ten 2.2 meter armor penetrating explosive rounds. There is a laser sight that is used to track ships that the gunship has locked onto. The ammunitions limitation is severe but the maneuverability and firepower keep this particular ship from going obsolete. While by no means a small ship, it only has enough room for a single pilot, so all of the controls must be stored in the cockpit and there are few backup systems. The upside to this is that the ships themselves already are not huge investments and can be replaced easily.

IDW 67: War Idol
Winner: Ian mc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



“Shiva” AMAP

This “Shiva” AMAP (Autonomous Mobile Assault Platform) has been co-opted as a war idol by the remnants of the population of Detroit to aid them in their ongoing struggle against Chicago. The serial numbers of this weapon implicate it in the infamous Haight-Ashbury massacre of 2045 where widespread electronic counter-measures caused it to run amok. Although apparently dead, it is merely in sleep mode, awaiting further orders from US High Command.

IDW 74: The “Daisy Belle” at the Bonneville Salt Flats
Winner: Maks444
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



All wheels have an extreme negative camber, in the front the angle helps making the wheel a part of the aerodynamics, at a certain speed the front wheels act more like wing flaps then actual wheels, the huge back wheels have more centrifugal force then small wheels providing a lot of stability, they have less camber but still enough to allow the top of the wheel to almost touch while leaving enough room at the botom for the turbine exhaust. All this in hopes of the widest track possible with the best air flow all around.

IDW 75: Dream Splicer
Winner: IcyM
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The idea is along the lines of dream splicing therapy. The main inspiration comes from a CAT scan machine. It’s a piece of medical equipment that can find your dreams, record them, and if needed... spliced for the desired effect.

IDW 77: Mobile Home
Winner: Orion9282

Thumbnails

Starting in the center, I thought it might be funny to have a futuristic interpretation of a mobile home... maybe illustrated with a cel-shaded cartoon style and an alien low-life coming out of it. I moved to the idea that large space ships kinda become houses... like the extended cruise ship in Wall-E, except that each individual person would have this ship/house (sketch on the left).

Description

(Right thumbnail and final image) I then moved to the idea of a post-war society where dilapidated army vehicles were re-purposed as housing. Similar to how the Philippines re-purposed old war jeeps, converting them into public transportation. Link. So, shown here in the final image is a decommissioned troop transport that has been retrofitted to serve as a home. It is still mobile due to its prior purpose and many of these are in service as shelters to those lucky enough to obtain one.

IDW 78: Asteroid Miner
Winner: Arekkusu
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The ship's mid section is capable of expanding length and width ways, allowing it to 'berth' asteroids up to a certain size. Once the chunk of rock is in position, the two main boosters are fired. The energy emitted by these boosters strips the rock down into base elements, ions, etc. The particles are then collected and sorted by the two large cylindrical nodes, eventually deposited as pure minerals or ores in the hoppers at the front of the ship.

Designed for light action, peace keeping and medivac, this apc's rear cargo was designed for the maximum amount of modularity. The bay of the rear includes a rail system allowing a large variety of cargo to be stored. Demonstrated here is a standard crew attachment with room for 8 soldiers. The two closest to the front man the upper turret and navigate while the 6 others can fire from their position inside or can slide down the firing slit's armored shields and take a break.
