New Proposed Icon for boats-xkcd
This is my new proposed icon design for the android application "Boats", designed using Adobe Illustrator. The features of this app is right down below:
Boats is a comic reader app available for android. Great for reading xkcd for free and boasts dark themes for those who are into a low light/dark themed comic viewer. App can also be used offline for greater flexibility for users.
Design Concept:
The idea was to create a simple and modern logo design. I based the icon on a boat and turned the sail into a comic/book design to suit the app name and make it a more sensible app design language.
Icon Sizes
96px
72px

Benefits / Improvements
Design is cleaner and modern and brings a fresh look to the Boats brand. It is much easier for the eyes compared to the current logo. Color scheme has been updated to to make the icon eye catchy.
Tools
I used Adobe Illustrator CC 2017 version for both design and presentation. Here are some screenshots for proof of works.
