I really like the splash screens for each of the League of Legends characters and their skins. They've inspired me in so many ways: lighting, composition, and skin ideas in general. I wanted to paint a skin for my favorite LoL character: Fizz. (He's my favorite because he's tiny and has an awesome, giant pet shark.)
I documented this one all the way through and it went through some significant changes.
This was the initial final, but I wanted to make sure it fit Fizz's character as well as it's overall effectiveness. I asked for a crit from my friend,
Erica, who's also an experienced LoL player.
And this was the final result after Erica's crit.
Things I learned from painting this:
- Painting transparent skin. Looked up a bunch of deep sea creature references for this. I also had to mess around with different combos of layer styles to achieve the effect, too.
