I used a grenade in the Improvised Robotic Device image, but it was a bit low res for it's own stand alone image, so this one was created nearly from scratch. it's a M26 fragmentation grenade.

Late 1800's/early 1900's stock ticker. Stock tickers used to be used as symbols of success. I created the model from scratch, so I will definitely use it again, to make up for the time it took to make.

The idea for this one started while walking through a bookstore, and noticing just how many books, of all types, had skulls on the cover. Try counting them yourself next time.
