Sorry... Lately my "Draw ability seems to wax and wane... Like a nice hidden talent. Here, I present proof of this... and the fact that I'm not dead. ... Just busy. ... Very busy.

Anyways...

*Ahem*

I had, (Have) this daydream... I was trying to think of a way to surpass all of my other inventions... For warfare and otherwise. I kept thinking of the 'Bigger gun' paradox. In which there simply seems to be, (In the world of firearms anyhow) a bigger, better gun. Something with better strength, rate of fire, and less recoil... I had something of an epiphany. (A veeery small one) I realized, that perhaps, in terms of weapons design, I (And perhaps most everyone) was going in the wrong direction. Instead of a better gun... a better offensive defense, if you will... I wondered what I could make as far as a defensive offense. No longer a larger, sharper sword to design... Instead, a shield.

This is simply the first rough sketching of what I hope to later fully realize... The circular object in the (near) center will be called Icon. ... (It sounded right to me.) Much inspired by the anime and science fiction I read, Icon will be a living thing. (Though at first, I don't think I'll be able realize that...) An engine of living matter... Perhaps from some unknown metal, or one synthesized from a fallen star... It'd have to be slightly larger than the size of a pocket watch, and metallic silver in color. With the ability to take in almost any material and process it into energy, or reconfigure its molecular structure to form another material.
Also functioning as a shield generator... Somehow... (I haven't worked out the psuedo-science for that one...sorry.)
