“Yautja” - A Predator Inspired UI

HUD Animation mock

It’s been a while since I last tackled a passion UI project, but I found my groove again by revisiting an old love of mine: The Predator. 
When I say “Predator,” I mean Predator 1 & 2—none of the AVP or later stuff, the old-school designs are what really inspire me. 
I wanted to stay true to the look and feel of the original 1987 and 1990 films, especially those iconic red alien vibes, the tribal yet techy designs and the dark gore of it all. 
The first step was naming the project “Yautja,” the Predator’s race name in their native tongue. I also incorporated their language by using a font I found online, helping sell the idea that this interface truly exists within a Predator ship or visor. 
I made the tree-dotted crosshair as the main navigation cursor in all of the menus. and tried to blend in predator's visual language in every element as much as I could.
All in all I’m really happy with how this turned out, and I hope you enjoy it too!
