[Riot Art Contest] - Nami

karytsukino

Hey Guys! Thanks for the nice comments!

I'm still working on my Nami redesign, I'm doing the texture for her. And I'd like to ask your opinion. I'm not so good choosing colors for characters, but I always try to... So I'd like to know what do you think about the colors oh the character?

Critics are welcome!

Hey, cool character, but I don't think you are allowed to use someone else's concept...

Can I use a concept art from a friend or that I found online?
No. You can only use your own concept or any concept from Riot. Please do not use other people’s concepts that you did not create or own even if they gave you permission. That would constitute teamwork which is against the rules as stated.

Yea, I think it has to be official Riot concept art or its out unless its ur own.

Thanks Guys for the help! I'll try to make my own concept based on the general idea. I was not sure if want to make a "dark nami", I really like the idea of make her half octopus. Thanks for the warning! :thumbup:

Hi There!


Working on my Ideas for Nami here. I like her "ladylike" style, so I'm thinking on doing a Nami- Queen of Sea. Here is my attempt to my concept.

I hope you like it! See ya! :)

Ooo! Can't wait to see more!

I think that the person who originally painted the concept you are using is in this competition as well. And also using this concept. It might be better to generate your own concept.

Thanks Darkvingator! But as I sad I'm not using that concept anymore. Maybe you cant see now, but I'm sure that the final result will be diferent ... Thanks for the tip :thumbup:

Hi There!

Still working on my model. I would like to give her an etinic queen aprproach!I hope It's getting better... I didn't work on the tentacles yet. I've to study how to make it... But I'm sure I'll have updates soon... What do you think guys?

I like her a lot - just be careful with how you "attach" the tentacles to her body (not the biggest fan of how it looks on concept) - maybe it's just matter of proportions (how big/long the tentacles will be compared to her body). I'm sure you'll make it look good - good luck.

Hi there!!! Its been a while, but I'm still working on my character on my spare time. Sculpting part its almost done, I plan to make some more details if I have time, and start retopology by the weekend. So guys what do you think?

She's so charming and cute.
Me and My girl friend love it so much.
I think you already notice about it, but for now, the back of the waist armor is digging into her. Also, I wonder what is your idea for her human body and octopus body transition. Is it going to be something like Ariel's in Disney movie?

Hi Bgram1984! I'm happy to know, that you and your girlfriend like my character! Thanks for the compliments. And you're right the armor is digging into her... I've been working on the tentacles recently, so now I've to move the armor to adapt her body. About the transition between human and octopus, I'm still workingo on some studies ... my first idea was inspired on Ariel's body, but I'm not reallly sure... I think with the armor in that part she looks a bit heavy on the waisth, I'll try to post some of my progress with this later!

Thanks for the comment!!!

Hey 3sm! Sorry for the late answer! But thanks a lot for the tips! I've had a hard time studying the tentacles part, I hope it looks better now! What do you think? I'm not satisfied with the transition between body and tentacles, I'll try to work a bit more on that part. Your critics are always welcome! Thanks!!!

Hey Guys! Just updating small changes in the texture... What do you think about the colors?

Dantert

Nice progress so far. Maybe you could use some warm lighter tones to make the shapes pop out more

TomGT

Nice work! Getting there. I like that headdress a lot!

For colors. I think it could use some highlights here and there to make her armor more shiny and her skin more glossy. Will add to the overall aquatic nature of the character.

Personally I'd go for a light blue to dark green gradient on her hair. I feel that it'll fit more with her main color palette.

Hi TomGT! Thanks a lot for the comment. Nice tips! I like the idea of doing some hilights in the armor and you're right I have to fix her spec to make her look more glossy. I'm not sure if I'll change the hair (I'm a bit in love with the pink point =P), but i sure understand your point. Thanks a laot again! o/


I'll try to post some progress later I hope you enjoy it guys! Thanks for the comments again! :thumbup:

Tairow

I'm liking the colors so far, but I'm really bad at this too!! Maybe something to pop her hair acc more, i dont know, but I'm like how this is going!! Very cool! Good Luck!!
