Project: Akali

DaoneT

Hi everyone!!

I'm going with Akali for this contest. Looking forward to working on this character, as she is my favourite character in league. With the recent announcement of other "Project" characters just been released and wanting to work on hard surface characters. I put two and two together aand began this contest. Hope you enjoy the process.  ^^

Playing with outfit ideas. Liking pieces from different designs so most likely going mesh them together into 1-3 designs.

Colour blocking stage, thinking of going with a green teal as the main colour source.

Some Kama/weapon ideas, which one do you guys suggest?

Project:akali sounds awesome! This skin makes a lot of sense, I think it fits her a lot.
For the weapon, I think they need to have a bigger blade. Maybe use the Headhunter skins as a reference too?

Thanks glad you like the idea, Some more ideas for the Kama weapon, but having a hard time matching the perfect design for the theme :T

From the current project skins I think Katarina is the closest to Akali.
I think this might help with the weapon's blade design: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/V1vRX

I agree, thanks for the reference.

Update for the design and feel for Akali. The weapon for now is just a place holder, but this is a design I've mesh together from the outfit ideas. Still got to do the design for back, thinking of mechanical spine, and a few energy indicators to help her stand out with the over head camera angles. Maybe she is to somewhat symmetrical? any ideas to break it up? 

DaoneT

Apologies for the lack of update, but here is where she is at the moment. changed a few designs as I went along. Any feed back are welcomed and I hope everyone had a great holiday break! Happy new years

Little update for the weapon, on to more polish then the low poly.
