I’ve merely been curious about suggestions of this type, and looking back, it appears I may be the first to suggest not only how the effects of a suggested weapon would look, but to also conceive concept models and images to show my genuine interest in it while also offering ideas for the basic design of said weapon.
It also seems that that suggested weapons would take a long time to create in-game due to a lack of an idea on what it should look like, while the function and mechanics are almost totally solid in the suggestion.
While concept art and models may aid the suggestion (for, say, a power up), it could also hinder it if the concepts given are too complex or incomplete, or if the suggestion and concept do not match. Example: I make a suggestion for a projectile weapon (an EM Shotgun for Fighters) but the concept model render given appears as a model for a missile instead of a gun, and is labeled as “Fighter Fission Gun”.
I am open for a basic discussion on suggestions of this nature where concept images can be created alongside contextual information to support it and give the suggestion some form outside of the text.
Here is the thread which has a few concepts I made myself in Maya 2014 and Paint.net
