[RIOT CREATIVE CONTEST 2017] Janna, Empress of the Sands

Kebet

Last Update: 



Hello everyone! I am so excited about this proyect, my main objetive is to improve my skills at body sculpt, and to achieve that I decided to create a new skin for Janna, nomad of the oasis. (The skin name is provisional for now)

I started searching references and sketching some heads desings. Instead of a scepter she has a flabellum and as a companion she has a beetle instead of the elemental bird.

Hope you like it!

Looks really cool!
My faves are Bug number 1, head number 1 & 3, and simply all staffs look amazing cant decide there xD

I also like bug number 1. I think head 1 would read as Janna more, especially with her ultimate causing her hair to blow around.

Can't wait to see how this turns out. I agree with Hellkritty that Head 1 will read more as Janna. She's never really had anything covering her head up. I also really like Bug 1 and Staff 2.

Update!

Thank you so much for the feedback, I finally chose the first head and made two full body sketches, my favorite one is the second one (but I really don´t like the belt so I have to give it a twist)

Howling Carnage

Well the belt on 2 is the faction icon of Shurima, so it definitely fits the theme, but you're right. It's rather bulky compared to the rest of her.

you could also try to give her some more clothes so the belt doesnt hurt so much (considering it has almost the width of her body while she has almost nothing on apart of that) If you need some inspiration look at Classic Sivir or Azir. Some purple bits of clothing would fit or in general maybe go more for shurima direction instead of just egyptian.

New sketch with a color test, I think this is the one that fits better with my skin idea. Time to start sculpting!

Thank you for the feedback!

PD: I must found a good name for the skin theme XD

looks nice but I think some more clothes would be good since Riot is moving away from that half naked/naked Janna also as you went "away" from egyptian and took the shurima (with the colors). I'd call it Shurima Janna btw / Emperor of the Sands Janna or so. Oh and maybe not so pointy ears (cant rly remember how her ears are currently but they seem a bit very pointy/long)

Little changes on the desing, I added more clothes and no more XD. Thank you @DawnHeart for the feedback. I must redifine the body structure (ears and jaw) a little but I think I can start sculping the base model at least.

Howling Carnage

Your concept is looking great. I look forward to seeing your progress.
