From January 2016 to March 2017, I worked on the AAA title: Warhammer 40K Eternal Crusade as UI/UX Designer. I collaborated closely with my Lead UI, Game Designers, UI programmers and the whole team in order to deliver the best work as possible that respect the Warhammer 40K lore.
Guidestyle
When I came on the project I had to search and create a coherent UI Guidestyle that fits with the current Art Direction. To accomplish that, I worked closely with my UI Lead and the Art Director.
Game Icons & Symbols
Rank Icons
I created 40 different Rank Icons (10 per faction), the goal was to feel the rank progression from 1 to 10.

Commendation Icons
At the end of the game we have a Battle Report Screen that displaying stats, results from the ending battle and also rewards and trophies like “Commendations”. Here is what I did for commendations.

Psychic Power Icons
Psychic Power Icons are used by Chaos faction. Each Chaos gods have their own Psychic Powers. I had to create two different versions for each. One for the Loadout and another one that appearing when we are in game (in the HUD).

I tried to catch the Chaos gods essence for each of these.

Guild Banners
It was a cool thing to do here. I had to create 5 “basic / default” Guild Banners version that representing the Faction spirit and 5 that representing Chapters available in the game.

Skill Tree Icons
One of the most challenging part of my job on this project. In order to have cool rendering for the skill Tree and the HUD Icon system, I had to redesign by hand almost every assets present in the game like:Weapons, Psychic Powers, Armors, Consumables etc…

In fact I did almost 100+ icons by hand with my friend Illustrator.
It was really cool to do that, even if it was long and a huge things.
