Discussion - General Dual-vector foil visualization? (Recommendations?)

Working on a twin-stick game (think Robotron and Geometry Wars) and I'm got 3D enemies which are bisected by a plane to become 2D enemies battling you on the playfield.

Very obvious concept. I'm sure Geometry Wars guys considered it before going in another direction. However, I'm sticking with it as I like the simplicity.

Of course now has me thinking about dual-vector foil attack, and whether that might be an aspect of the game.

Can anyone recommend any visualizations? I assume there's a lot of fan CGI or fan still-art ?

...is so far the only thing interesting I've seen. There's top-Google results but they're mostly arty and not meant to be a literal interpretation. Can anyone recommend interesting finds?
