Thomas Randby is a Senior Concept Artist on the League of Legends PC team at Riot Games. A member of the PIE (Personalization, Immersion, and Expression) initiative, you may remember him from such skins as Battle Academia Caitlyn, Cafe Cuties Sivir, and Spirit Blossom Cassiopeia.
Tune up and tune in to Episode 1, as Tom takes us on an adventure through a magical world of lions and pool parties, where the only limits are those of your imagination…and a never-ending list of gameplay-based constraints. We’ll see how Tom navigates these challenges as he creates a bespoke, impromptu piece of concept art in real-time, and walks us through his creative process, the craft, and how he fits into the pipeline among animators, illustrators, and technical artists, oh my!
The Riot Games Super Art Power Hour is a monthly long-form educational segment spotlighting super art and super artists at Riot.

I have been wanting and waiting for a Circus skinline in years and this concept was so good. However, it destroyed me since this concept may not see the light of day so I hope the community will push Riot to make this idea canon. I really want that killer clown Sion.

@HakuhoVento 2 года назад

Oh gosh! Thank you so much for sharing the process and insides of the creation of skins for characters! Much appreciated!

@Pteriidae 2 года назад

All the details explaining the design process, the different aspects that need to be taken into consideration when designing a skin, while many of which were already known, there were quite a few new ones, it was was fascinating to listen to. And the concept for the skin itself is a really fun one, it's almost akin to the older style of skins which were significantly simpler than some current skin designs. This concept is absolutely competent and it'd be incredible for Riot to release some more down to earth, yet still very much fantastical skins like this one! I love demons and dragons and mystical creatures as much as the next person, but this is such a breath of fresh air, still very much interesting and fun while being more laid-back than some more recent lines. I'm absolutely sold!

@sorinastefan5631 2 года назад

I'm just 1 min in and this gives so much insight on how many things you have to take into account when making a concept for a skin depending on the game you are working on. I already was aware of the fact that you need to be careful with details because some might not be visible in league of legends' isometric view but taking into account animation joints takes it to a whole new level! Also Caitlyn's gun in the poolparty skin always bothered me with its neon/bright colors but now that ive been given the reasoning behind it (the weapon/place of power of the character needs to be highlighted) it just makes me admire the work behind each skin even more. Work that sadly isn't always coming through the way riot wanted as the personalization of a skin is not always there with some skins where players mistake the champion for another one just because of how generic it was made to look. Regardless, amazing video!!

I'd love to see a Super Art Power Hour on Illustration too! Decrypting the process of image composition and use of color and value to create certain moods would be amazing.

A lot of gems can be found here: - Function over form. Always prioritize gameplay (how the player identify and perceive her character) and the actual animations. - Highlight the upper body part using bright colors and design with points of interest. - Focus on the overall shapes that are readable (sharp edges, giant hat). - Generate excitement and the narrative direction of the thematic universe. - Retain the character's personality and story. - Try making fan-arts to gain potential job opportunities.
