[Metropolisten] - Targeting Reticule
The last bit of work that I have for this project - these targeting reticules were designed to indicate when a given target was ready to be destroyed. After some preliminary designs (2, 3, 4), we settled on a form bracketed by slightly adjusted alto clefts (1, 5, 6, 7). Versions 2 and 3 would eventually be reincorporated as parts of the animated cue sequence.
These reticules would be color-matched to the key and corresponding drone (9), and would play through a short animation as the target approached, with the bracketed form being the cue to fire.
As you may have noticed in the earlier posts in this series, the targeting reticule also made it as part of the Metropolisten logo.
