Design for Assassin Creed Unity, the Templar poison Pin narratively attributed to silversmith Templar François Thomas Germain.
My first attempt at the pin with character art François Thomas Germain by Remko Troost.
Challenged by the project Art Director Mohamed Gambouz, I explored something else for the design. Using references of the real historical Germain silversmith work.
Still challenged by Mohamed to come up with something assymetrical, I made this 3rd and final version .
I am thankful to Mohamed for pushing me through this reasearch! I really feel the evolution of my design.

Some time later, I was approached by Anouk Bachman , Brand Production Manager to make a variation on the design, but the visual identity had to remain Gemain's silversmith handiwork.
So I went back to a previous version, simplified it, and made it more modern, for it is a later design and style.
