The original idea takes from the Jagermeister drink, the “Jagerbomb”. The secondary idea was then to combine the concept of this drink and then package it like a mine bomb. In order to do this, a Jägermeister bottle was drawn with a simple hand drawn and trace technique, and then the label was created. The label has an “explosion effect” as the logo for The Bomb Project. Other aspects in the dial are the timer, the cap, and the pump so it can represent the feeling of the mine bomb just like the old days. Real materials like wood and straw are included into this Bomb Project. The color selected is an army green in order to match the theme of the product. The final step is to cushion the box and product with straw and then a shot glass is placed into the box for final touches. This can then be presented to the Jagermeister as a secondary product concept for them to use in order to promote their product.
