Hi guys! My name is Jaywon Joo and these are the first stages of my entry to the 2017 Riot Creative Contest. I'll be posting my inspirations and references soon but I am a little pressed for time at the moment haha. Right now I'm in the development phase where I try to figure out what champions I want to include in the…
I got the idea of having TF launching off of one of Baron's legs and now I'm currently trying different compositions to see how I could make that idea fit. Still unsure about if I will keep it as I really like the first one but I might try mixing number 1 and 3 when I get home from work. I also think it might be cool to…
Thanks for the tip Aqua! Suke has definitely been a major inspiration for the exact reasons you stated in your message. A huge goal of mine is to attempt to capture the same magical atmosphere(?) that he puts into his work but easier said than done haha. Just an update on my painting. I've fleshed out the characters and…
Hey! If you're having some issues with composition Su-ke's Deviantart has a whole bunch of useful pieces which might help. Also I've found LoL's official videos help significantly with character cohesiveness and telling a story in general. I love the camera angle that you've chosen to go with - it really makes the scene…
Liking the current wip so far! That camera angle really brings a sense of power in Aurelion Sol. I would like to suggest to have him face in the same direction pantheon is pointing, so it makes him feel a bit more part of a team fight maybe?
Morning everyone! Here's some more progress I've made on the piece. Initially I just blocked in the colors to see how everything would sort of fit together but I realized I needed to establish the value structure before doing anything else. I also needed some way to unify the image so I've decided to change the champions…
Hi thunder! I've decided to have Aurelion Sol facing away from the others because he really isn't part of the team. In his lore, he's tricked by the Targonians and forced to comply to their orders so I really wanted to capture him being unhappy about it but still submitting to their will (with the sideways glance). Still,…
Update! Fleshed out the champion's outfits a little more and then spent the afternoon attempting to establish a general color/lighting scheme. I initially wanted to make Aurelion Sol the primary focus of the painting but I'm playing with the idea of having the Aspects be the focus and having him fade into the sky. We'll…
Thanks Rish! :smile: I've decided to change directions as I really wasn't connecting with my initial image. I feel like it is too much about Baron rather than about the champions in League and it also kind of looked like an advertisement for Yu-Gi-Oh haha. So after some exploration, I've arrived here. My mind doesn't want…
