So I was asked to concept up a place-able plasma camp fire for AOM. My first thoughts were all over the place. What would that look like? Camp fires. Like logs and rocks? Yet its supposed to be a metal machine with a sci fi feel to it. So I started throwing together various designs. Some having slight animation thoughts behind them. Like the first one. Placing the orb down and the 5 plasma prongs rise up and it kicks on and starts hovering mid level. Or the 4th that folds up into a small portable canister.
In the end after talking with the team we decided we wanted to go with 6. Aesthetically it had a nice "camp fire" feel and fit the rolls we intend for it to do in game. A few additions were made like a handled lid to place the pit down on the ground and twist it off. As well as a twisting option in the center that would give a cool extra bit of sci fi tech to it.
