[Riot Creative Contest 2017] Pool Party Corki

Ascarion

Hello everyone!

My name is Nicolas and it's my first time participating in an art contest.

Months ago, I had the idea of putting Corki into the "Pool Party" theme, but I didnt implement it. So the "Riot Creative Contest" is a great opportunity to retry it. Your feedback is very welcome!

Good luck to everyone.

First of all, I thought about Corki's character:
- ballsy
- courageous
- inventive
- ambitious
- "showman"

Based on this and my idea in the back, I created this first simple sketch and ability concept:

Here some sketches of Corkis head. I wasn't sure of the form and color of the diving goggles, I tend to go with number 1. Let me know what you think!

I like 3 a lot because in Corki's splash art he only wears goggles, and keeping it true to the old guy is a nice touch.

Thank you for your feedback! I'll consider it.

Next, I thought about the Composition. I'd like to create a dynamic splash, including Corki's abilities. So, I think 3 or 4 fit best. Let me know what you think!

It's a long time since I last posted something here. I hope you all had beautiful Christmas. I myself have time now to work for the Splash.
I already did the outlines:

Base colours:
I'm struggling a bit with the colour and form of the foaming wave. Feedback appreciated!

This is concept is AWESOME (I don't even play with corki), but the splash is just too much clean, maybe is the angle? Most of pool party skins, have so many underground elements, and I'm feeling like you're missing some of them. Maybe change a bit, so we can see the beach with more elements. Photos for reference:

Thank you for your Feedback reyxcx!

I rotated the picture a bit and did some detail work.
Deadline is near, so I'll give the picture some finishing touches within the next days.

Final Piece:

It was my first time participating in an art contest (And I'm sure it won't be the last time). As an unexperienced "rookie" it wasn't only really fun for me, I learned a lot as well.

Good luck to all the other participants - You did really beautiful art!
