[Riot Art Contest] Oni Trundle

wuzidan

Trundle is my favorite champion. I did these initial design sketches around May.

wuzidan

Some composition sketches. I want to showcase his anti-tank kit eg king's tribute/subjugate

wolfcat501

I love your designs! I like the first design out of the three because when you're playing against him, that movement of striking really is no doubt his uniqueness. It tells a lot about his personality too.

BIake

This concept looks super amazing! Your sketches are full of life, and the compositions look great as well!
I like the 2nd and 3rd compositions. The first one focuses too much on the club, but I think the 2nd one would look great when rendered - more movement and expression! *v*

Alvaro.Knot

the 2nd one is my favorite, pretty nice skethes man

Uriah

Great sketches! I agree, and say that the second sketch is my favorite. They all have great depth but the second one highlights Trundles face in a nice way. The composition is set up for a good clear read.

Flaxor

Great stuff so far! I love the pose of the first one, but the club does fill up quite a bit of the screen. I still prefer it to the others as the appeal and pose are still so strong in it. Maybe you could put the main focus on the face with the lighting values to help with that.

wuzidan

@wolfcat501, @Blake, @Alvaro.Knot, @Uriah, @Flaxor: Thank you guys for you feedback and comments! I decided to go with the 2nd sketch in the end.

wuzidan

Hair concepts. I was pretty much set on the first head from the beginning, but it is fun to explore. The horns and teeth arrangement as well.



I hate how whenever I clean up my sketches it loses a lot of energy. Still figuring out the mess of a left hand. Will most likely expand the canvas horizontally.


Working on lighting comps and armor concepts next.

Attached is a reference sheet

MGrecke

Looking super neat so far! Don't have much more to say than that I love the composition and I think the energy is still in it even if its cleaned up!

AlexandraVo

This is looking super cool! Can't wait to see more of it! I know it's a rough, but I'd put a shape down for implied Garen so you can better judge the composition.

Silvarspark

Very nice work.
That last illustration need a bit more space to the left though.

wuzidan

Thanks for the feedback @mgrecke @alexandravo @silvarspark! I think I'm gonna scrap the Garen though hue.

Started painting/rendering and thinking of background elements (see attached)




Armor still isn't 100% finalized, but it is a mash-up of the two shown.

Flaxor

It looks outstanding so far man!! The colours are fantastic. I can´t wait for the final version!

wuzidan

Thanks @flaxor!

Been working on and off this drawing. I'm still working on the cloth and shoulder armor and club etc etc. Also, removed some parts like the hair temporarily so I don't have to worry about painting over it while painting the body. The color calibration on my laptop keeps changing so it's throwing me off as well haha ; ;

edit: like it looks much darker and "cooler" once I upload it compared to looking at in windows photo viewer

kannovaku

Wow!!That's cool!!
your painting is awesome!!

Whatzitoya

That looks cool as heck! Would be nice to see some sort of blurred out background in there too instead of just a gradient just so it establishes the character is actually somewhere better, but other than that, I love where it's going

RMassarani

Damn. This is truly amazing! Keep it up! And I agree with Whatzitoya, just a hint of a background would do wonders for this illustration.

wuzidan

@kannovaku,whatzitoya,rmassarani

Thanks! I was saving the background for last bc I didn't really sketch it out thoroughly enough and I am not good at backgrounds haha.

Anyways this is gonna be as done as it will be for the time being. This was fun and I'm glad it gave me the opportunity to draw some League stuff.

Saulocb

This is the one I liked most so far! Great job!

Flaxor

Beautiful!

Aegolist

love it man! You did an excellent job on your oni trundle also! love the lighting, and the in your face, cream that soldiers head in crop. well done!
