Assignment 2 - Pictogram

I did a pictogram based on a vending machine for directional purposes. Here's the draft for class critique:


Problems:
  • Food inside vending machine could not be seen clearly except when up close
  • Hard to find symbols to represent the type of food/drinks that a vending machine dispenses
  • My level of abstraction was not high enough, it was still rather detailed
I decided to change it to a prohibited sign, something along the lines of "Do not hit the vending machine" to ease the level of abstraction.

Final version after edit:

(thanks to jjxx for being my angsty model)

Prototype:
I chose the fifth one as it was abstract but could still bring across the message.
