This week we want you to create a hammer that could be used in a video game as a weapon, then upload it to your Rookies profile and tag it #RookiesWeeklyDrills and #Hammer.


Brief

Hammers are centuries-old instruments that have been used for millennia. Although hammers are often linked with brute strength, they have far more thematic depth than related weapons such as axes. Hammers, like many other weapons, may be cruel weapons of destruction. They can, however, be used for comedy, therefore this list will be more diverse than other weapons-based lists. Your challenge this week is to create a hammer project for your portfolio. You can design your own, or recreate an existing hammer from your favourite game.

To get some feedback on your work-in-progress project before you submit it, head over to Discord channel and chat with other artists having a crack. To see all the Weekly Drill projects just follow this link.
