Designing my Valorant Vandal skins was such a fun but nerve-wracking experience. The Pink Smite Variation started as a simple idea to reimagine a skin I already loved, but figuring out how to make it feel both familiar and unique was harder than I expected. The Tangled Vandal was even more intimidating because it was an entirely new concept, and I wasn’t sure if other players would like it as much as I did. Even though I had moments of doubt, I’m so proud of how these designs turned out, and it’s amazing to see my creativity and love for the game come together in such a cool way.
As an avid Valorant player since high school and a passionate fan of custom skin designs, I created two unique Vandal skin concepts: the Pink Smite Variation and the Tangled Vandal Skin. These designs merge my love for the game with my creativity and attention to detail, bringing fresh perspectives to the weapon skins in Valorant.
Creativity and Vision
Both designs showcase my ability to blend creativity with functional design. By reinterpreting an existing theme with the Pink Smite and crafting an entirely new concept with the Tangled Vandal, I’ve demonstrated versatility and a deep understanding of player preferences. These concepts were developed with the Valorant community in mind, aiming to enhance the visual and emotional connection players have with the game.
Pink Smite Variation Vandal
The Pink Smite Variation is a reimagination of the existing blue Smite skin in Valorant, infused with a vibrant pink twist. As a lover of pink skins, I wanted to create something that felt both familiar and distinctive, catering to players who appreciate bold, playful aesthetics. The design retains the iconic lightning themed visuals of the original Smite while incorporating a softer, more dreamy pink color palette. This design represents my ability to reinterpret existing themes while adding a personalized touch that resonates with other players who share similar preferences.
Tangled Vandal Skin Design
The Tangled Vandal is a completely original concept inspired by the enchanting visuals of the movie Tangled. This purple skin features intricate designs reminiscent of the movie's magical atmosphere. The centerpiece of the design is a "snowglobe" like window embedded in the middle of the weapon, displaying a mesmerizing scene of floating lanterns. The dynamic glow and gentle movement within the window evoke a sense of wonder, making this skin truly stand out.
