[RIOT CREATIVE CONTEST 2017] Character Art - Shyvana ( maybe) or Zyra or any others

NguyThuyNgan · Nov 2017

Hi guys,

I'm so excited about the contest. My FA champs is Shyvana, Soraka and Zyra. Maybe this time, I'll go with Shyvana. 2 ideas popped up in my head.
I took a look at the previous skins of this girl. They're almost in cool tone . That why , I created the very first concept with golden shining details.

Though , I'm really worried. Maybe I'll make tons of sketches before pick up one topic and stay there till death.
The second one come up after seeing the Soul Stealer vayne.They're still very rough.

Thanks so much for passing by my entry.
Hope the next update , I can show you guy many more ideas.

My eyes are stuck on that golden shvana

DawnHeart · Nov 2017

Seriously why do you have so many extremely good ideas???????????????
When looking at your concepts I just cant decide which one to go with they all are amazing. The only thing I could imagine is if you have a Leo concept I'd totally root for that as I love Leona but apart of that just WOW!!!

Anne · Nov 2017

I totally love your concepts. They are all fantastic!

It will be hard for you to choose just one.

thornyzyra · Nov 2017

I'm waiting for Zyra's one

ilgimezgi · Nov 2017

NguyThuyNgan · Nov 2017

yararstss · Nov 2017

Now I have to say shauhsuahas This is fucking awesome! Congrats, looking foward for the texturing process

GravityBwlast · Nov 2017

Awesome

Gonna make both the human AND dragon form?

Jager · Nov 2017

Yoo!! these concepts are B E A Utiful

NguyThuyNgan · Dec 2017

@GravityBwlast yes, and I really worried if I could manage to finish both.
@yararstss thanks so much though, it's still just concepts, I made another one which more stylized shapes
@Jager your varus also awesome .

gyllenhaal · Dec 2017

New hair is a lot better, asymmetry working well also. Good luck

NguyThuyNgan · Dec 2017

@gyllenhaal : thanks so much : ))), it's hard to know which way is better, i tried to dig as much as I can .

To imagine Shyvana's head in many angle with the new design is quite confusing, thanks Zbrush for the rough look. Hmm, These shape still doesn't satisfy me much. Hard work again * digging digging*

Neer · Dec 2017

Whoaaa. This entry is great! Love your designs, including the Zyra/Zoe/Janna sketches.

chemotoledo · Dec 2017

I like so much the concept

I really want to watch this concept in the final ingame character with her textures

I'll look forward for more!

motenai · Dec 2017

i'm glad you went with this Shyvana, it's the concept i liked the most...great progress so far.
I really like the mid bottom head for some reason, i feels more original than the others, but it might fit less than others in the overall design.
the dragon form is gorgeous

I'm not really digging the new hair it kinda looks copiede from the last Zyra skin tbh while the other one would be something new. but everything else looks stunning! Seriously! Especially the drake that is godlike I totally love it and the colors and armor and just amazing work!

ooyoo · Dec 2017

wow! this looks awesome man! O.O super cool! cant wait to see more of this!!

NguyThuyNgan · Dec 2017

@motenai : yessss, the mid one in second line also my fav one. I decided to block out the dragon's head after it. The female character's head might need more fix ( as you told me, it doesn't sync with the over all XD ). Anw, thanks so much . Your cmt help me to make a stronger decision .

@DawnHeart : yes, I'll put more effort on her pony tail , the hairstyle is changing again if needed... My gut go for long hair,no matter how much scared of these hair might hide the back curves . That why I have no choice but grab the high pony. Thanks so much again. Sharp eyes you got.

@ooyoo : Thanks so much man, such words of encouragement.

Update:

wonder if option 1 or 2 will work out better

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/j0/eidnv9vnes72.jpg

Howling Carnage · Jan 2018

I'd say go for option 2, but personally think that option 1 adds more dynamic contrast with the dark hair instead of the blonde when it comes to the Arclight skin line. At the same time though, the blonde hair may prove to help differentiate her from Arclight Vayne who also has dark hair in her skin.

NguyThuyNgan · Jan 2018

Renaria · Jan 2018

The grey hair with golden tips was definitely the right choice! It looks so awesome!
Also I really love the unique and elegant design of the chest piece + its such a nice addition compared to a generic "boob plate".
