Hello all.

I have decided to go for a dwarven theme. My inspiration currently is the hobbit and the elder scrolls dwemer stuff. Lots of green and gold with some nature creeping in. Here are some thumbs I tried to get out at the end of the day for the tower. Hopefully ill burn through a few of these for each part.

    I'd say combo of 5 and 6 will capture the vibe your going for.

    pushed 2 ideas I liked the most with some ref off the internet. Want to make it look as though they have been crafted out of the rock below. Need to personalize them much more. Looking wayyy to LOTR at the moment. Mostly because of the reference I suppose.

    The left one! Plus it steers away from what they currently have as turrets (the standing knight). What is the blue part? Falling water? crystals? or magical glowy rune stuff?

    @kaiser im definately going to give it a go a furthering that concept. You are right about the similarities between the one on the right and the original so ill steer clear of it.

    I want it to be a waterfall but with a lack of animation im not sure how obvious I can make this so it may need rethinking but im sure its dooable.

    Made a few changes. Added an open mouth to make it seem more menacing, could probably push this more with this eyes. Also an area for the water to pool beneath the rocks before it drains away under the turret. I think I like this style so may get on with an inhibitor and do a final painting of them both once I've concepted that out. Would be great to hear peoples thoughts.

    Got an idea for a creep den so sketched it out. Decided to go for a more dwarven forge theme with molten iron as everyone seems to be doing water just now. Need to get on with that inhibitor in the same theme.

    @fenyce Thanks dude. I'm glad someone likes it. Hopefully the theme stands up to some of these other awesome work people are putting out.

    I just want to make sure you saw this post with the update to the rules:

    Hi everyone,

    At Riot Games, we have a very strong feedback culture. We pivot and make adjustments when things can be done better or are not working. In the spirit of this culture and after internal conversations with feedback from the community, we have decided to make some tweaks to the environment section of the contest. You can now choose to create the turret or the inhibitor rather than being required to create both. We want to make sure we are giving everyone enough time to create assets that you are proud of and able to finish in time for the December 19th deadline.

    We are also tweaking the animation com petition and not have animators pick an established character since animating a specific character without the exact model will be difficult. We want to see solid animations that are keeping the animation style of LoL in mind when creating these ability assets.

    We thank you for your understanding and look forward to seeing what you all come up with.

    -Kenny
