Main Character Weapon and Equipment Design - UQdeco2800/2022-studio-1 GitHub Wiki
Based on the origins of the Centaurs, I took inspiration from the sword shape of the ancient Greek sword. The ancient Greek sword has a slightly longer body, always with a distinctive pointed tip, and there are several different classifications. In order to better match the tall and robust physique of the Centaurs, I chose the Xiphos Sword, which is about 50-60 cm long, with a wider blade and shorter hilt, as the prototype for the sword.
The design iterations progress can be seen in the attached images below:
The final design that is going to be displayed on the game can be seen below:
Based on the store icon, we used the shield shape of the kite shield as a design template. The Kite Shield is a large almond shaped shield with a longer shape and curved down to a point at the bottom, this shield is specifically designed to protect cavalrymen. And this design can also better protect our main character that the Centaur.

I added a similar colour to the hilt of the shield's periphery to keep the weapon design style uniform.

Inspirations for the armour design can be seen below, it was inspired by how the armours are worn on centaurs by research.
