VALORANT: Prime Axe

This was the first melee skin that I worked on for Valorant. Having newly established archetypes for different kinds of melee weapons, this was one of the first in a set of the new "Agressive" melee types that would allow for first person overhand swings for a melee weapon. We used this axe, as well as a shortsword and a hammer as the main template to see how many different items we could have in the new set. The glass and emissive strips that turn on when you equip were a last minute addition to the model to present an opportunity for upgrading or evolution.
