Where's the ejector button? Or would a lever be better? X3

You just pull back the slide.

It looks like it still needs something to lock it in, that's my point. It looks like it's just sitting there. So a measure to keep it in place I think would be needed, and to unlatch it. Just pulling back the slide works but with a open air canister that's a tad unsafe, that's how I see it at least :P

Naa.. the left end is only connected electronically and the right end has a seal that needs to be pushed in in order to open, it will just seal back up when you pull it out. And it can't be pulled out until you pull back the slide. The slide would be locked during injection.

Can it have a trigger guard so I feel safe around it? Please? :P

Trigger Guards make it terribly hard to get your claws around that trigger.

Do they? I never had a problem with trigger guards. You could just make it larger if typical-sized ones are too small. But it's a generally good safety measure, there's a reason you don't see any mass-produced firearm that omits a trigger guard.

any mass produced firearm doesn't need to be placed on skin in order to work (^vxxv^)

Very true. More a precaution of preventing accidental discharge in general. I have this feeling that even if nobody got hurt by it, a trigger pull's worth of special nanites being wasted wouldn't be desirable. I remain, actually, quite surprised at the size of that vial. It's... Big.

I'm not a gun specialist either, but I like guns, and I know 'em and stuff and I have too much advice for my own good here. XD

You do have a point though.. I didn't wanna update all the images.. I re-rendered the top left one though. How is it now?

Understandable not wanting to redo everything here. The trigger guard is good. It fits the aesthetics of the rest of the injector, that's for sure.

Just out of curiosity, what's this thing for?

Not sure how much I should divulge (^vxxv^)
This injector is going to be used to inject Nanites into humans.
Things will happen to them..

Given what you just said, what website we're on and what kinda stuff you do, I can make an educated guess. Although it might be better to wait and see. Dunno.

DX-34?.. I believe it was Donkey

If you wanted some references to compare to, look up images of Jet Injectors, they are kind of like the real world version of the hypospray from Star Trek. Although the ones I used to seeing are more bare-bones and mechanical looking, in the sense they didn't have nice moulded casings and lacked streamlining. So I guess those just give more of a functional reference than what is possible if someone wanted to make it look nice. But I think there are more around now with a polished design.

Yes that is what this design started with, but everyone uses jet injectors or spray guns for injectors in games. I figured I would try it a little different.

Very nice design.

Thanks (^vxxv^)

No problem. It's a very nicely detailed model.

What does it inject, though?

Like it says in the description (^vxxv^) it injects Nanites .. created by Rayverak.. you know.. tiny machines that like to work on stuff and form grey goo collectives.

But what do they do?

The DX line of Nanites is programmed with Animal DNA, as you can read from the display it is currently set to ANTHRO, but it will be FERAL later on. DX-34 is a Donkey program, a certain human will soon find himself forever changed.

Ouch

What exactly is it used for? Is it like one of those weapons that assassins use in movies when they sneak up behind someone and inject them with poison or tranquilizer? Or am I thinking a little too far ahead, lol?

It's a bit clunky to be used by assassins, you could say it is for medical applications.. lab work.. it can be intimidating.. maybe for interrogation. I supposed there could be a more lightweight version will a smaller dose of nanites, it really doesn't take much of them, it's just so big because it acts faster and you never know what size of creature you have to deal with.
For further information of it's use see directly above.

Oh cool! You know, I've been drawing lately some concepts of automatic rifles and pistols that can fire three round bursts. But sadly, I don't have a scanner, my camera died on me, and frankly, I don't have the money to go and buy a new camera. All the money I'm earning from my job goes directlybto the rent and bills...man, wish the economy wasn't so chaotic. I wanna upload my stuff, but I can't. You know, come to think of it, one of my Islamic buddies drew a concept very similar to what you have here, only he made it so that once it pierces the skin, it automatically starts injecting. There's no trigger, and it's small enough for an assassin to conceal it. The only difference is that the tube on his is a lot longer than what you have, and you have to manually reload it with another tube once it depletes the previous one.

Looks terribly painful :P

Yah.. I wanted to do an injector without needle, one of those hypo-dermal pressure thingies. But Rangarig has a thing for Needles and I was okay with that.

lol. Fair enough. Just keep it away from me ;)
