Shop New Axe Design Process
- Design too simplistic
- Looks like every basic axe
- Looks worse than main weapon – why get this?
- Very small and short – want an axe with more presence
I took inspiration mainly for how the axe head should look like (from medieval kind of axes) - and combined them together to form a unique looking axe.
- Attempt to expand on old design
- Complete redesign & new outline
- Basic fill
- Added colour and pixel detail to handle and overall axe
- Added black outline to adhere to design guidelines
- Tilted design - users preferred tilted over straight in finished product
- New axe design has a much more aesthetically pleasing design
- New axe is much longer than previous one – matching well with main character
- Three users reported really liking the colour scheme, especially the red colour touches on the edges
- Users additionally preferred the new handle – added a more interesting design compared to a simple straight handle
- Overall design improvement compared to main weapon – 5/5 users preferred this axe over current main weapon
