Malice: Mercy Reimagined

For a jam my university did a little bit ago, we were given the idea of taking a pre-existing character, area or concept, and redesigning it with a different purpose. I decided to take Mercy, an iconic Support class hero from Overwatch, and redesign her as an Assault class: specifically, redesigning her to fill the role of Reaper.

Finalised design. with additional flavour ideas for combat abilities.

Initial notes on shape language, and how I could swap the shapes of Reaper and Mercy.

Honing the design of the silhouette, trying to focus on the downward points to enhance a triangular silhouette.

Initial flat colour design in comparison to original Mercy design.

Flat colour turnaround.
