[ Riot Art Contest 2017 ] Summoners Rift
triangle
Hey guys!
Joining the contest a little late!
I'm a freelance concept artist and Illustrator, currently looking for full-time work within the games industry. I used to play League quite a bit and have always been a huge fan of Riot Games and the work that they produce in terms of character design and official art work, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to have a go at this comp~!
First off, here's an initial moodboard -

I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do in terms of illustrating -I was going to go ahead and do my own design for one of the characters but I don't have the time this month to put aside and really spend some time on design work, so decided instead to go for a good old fashioned illustration with multiple characters. In the end I went for Lux, Wukong, Ahri and Poppy.

Went ahead and spent a few hours building up the background - still got lots to do! Need to add all of the foliage, detail up some of the rocks more and then the blue glow from the crystals,
The contrast looks very off compared to what I'm painting on my tablet, even though I've calibrated my screen so many times to check its right! So I'm gonna have to plug another screen in and calibrate that one to compare them all together ....
Good luck to everyone who has entered - everyone's entries are seriously beautiful!
