  • I am really honor to work on Star Guardians Akali splash. She's one of the two leaders of the new Star Guardians and childhood friend with Kai'sa. They all fighting the dark creature in Valoran City. She just stopped one enemy from hurting you while she's Ultting in the air and you can see her just back flip on top of you, with this soft and romantic sunset light. Hope you like it.

      @@astico5456 no job is easy, it may seem like it because they literally just sit and draw.
      Remember this, everyone in the world can paint but there's just a few who got the patience to do a piece over and over and over again. And I doubt that even less can be qualified for the job because this actually takes a lot of time, motivation, not everyone can sit in front of a tablet and draw a whole day, because these actually have a deadline. And after they finish a project there's always a next one, they almost have no time to rest. There's no easy job in the world, if there is then everyone would choose that job, no brainer.
      Firefighters are on a different scale, some people find it easy because they're actually built for firefighting, it may sound hard but for people who got a fit and strong body + with years of training it's not that bad. It's just the same with being an artist, people just get the misconception that it's easy because they never experienced to be an artist in the first place.

      They weren't iterations, they were thumbnails - Riot demands a bunch of thumbnails they can pick from before you start the lengthy work on the final splash. A lot of artists do multiple thumbnails on the same canvas, this artist just preferred to fill the canvas with them instead.
