[Riot Art Contest] - Swift Judgement Kayle

jfitch

Hey all, I'll be working on Kayle for this competition. I don't know a ton about league but I'm excited to get started on this.

I'll be doing a somewhat darker version of Kayle's judgement skin, hopefully I'll post a quick concept sketch later tonight.

A very rough sketch to study Kayle's forms. I'll play with it a little more to see how I want to change the skin, but I'd rather do that in 3d. Off to Zbrush!


used in-game version for reference.

Looking cool so far.

I'd really like to see the larger wings on her, creates some nice contrast with her body, but that's really preference more than anything.

Also, the sword may be a bit too long at the moment, it's longer than her body!

Good point, I like the look of larger wings! I was thinking about doing dragon wings on her and making her some kind of targaryen winged soldier, but I wasn't sure if that's cliche.

Also I really want to change the sword, I'm not a huge fan of how it looks at the moment, and it is way too big.

Thanks CJE!

Hey Looking good so far, a large sword could work but something else on her has to be big as well, notice the massive shoulders / wings in the original concept. Love the direction though.!

Thanks Squals. Once I get stuff blocked out in zbrush I think I'll be able to see that easier, never really been much of a painter but I've been feeling the itch to get into it. I suppose doing the hand painted textures will require that of me anyway!
