Alright so I spent about a week drawing and concepting VU ideas for Pantheon. Now, I am not a good artist at all but i gave it my best shot. And I will love to share it with you guys at Riot, and the community, and to get some feedback.

They say at Riot they like to share their ideas with one another when concepting a new VU, champion, etc. That it multiplies the creativity and quality of product that comes out of that amazing process. I just hope its not too conceited of me to want to join (in a way) or just share in that process. Heck I'd be honored if they were to take these exact ideas and actually use

** General Notes:**

  • No Sandals. Just got rid of them. Mantheon shows no toes
  • Tried to give him a more "Mt. Targon" feel that Leona and Diana have already established
  • Glaive Warrior Pantheon is great as is. Best skin at the moment in my opinion, didn't feel the need to touch it

Classic Pantheon

  • Generally not a fan of helmet "mohawks" but i think I've changed it in a way that now i kinda like it

Myrmidon Pantheon

  • With this concept I didn't want any exaggerated look so i googled Myrmidon for influence and went with a more grounded look

Ruthless Pantheon

  • Went with a more gladiator feel so i google gladiator helmets for influence
  • In this concept i made him a lot beefier because, come on, this skin should be the one to show off the Mantheon if nothing else
  • Yes thats hair in the back

Perseus Pantheon

  • With this skin I felt Perseus was just a name they used back then, not really having any real influence on the skin so I took the liberty of just really trying to make him cool and a little closer to Targonian with it
  • Yes thats hair in the back

Full Metal Pantheon

  • Have always felt disappointed by the model of this skin. The potential for the badass-ness of this skin is off the charts ( just look at the splash art), So i almost completely re-designed it with my own concept

  • Also had a friend ( who actually is a real artist) draw my design of Full Metal Pantheon

Well I hope you guys like it and want to discuss it and really give this enough attention so that the wonderful guys at Riot come here, give it a look, and talk with me about it : )

Lovin' the ruthless pantheon! i like the changes you suggested for it. The current naked one i wouldn't really consider worthy of the "Ruthless" title. Good job.

These are all pretty cool (I definitely agree on the wasted potential of Full Metal Pantheon and the man toes) but the shield is missing in all of these. The Shield is one of the defining parts of Pantheon (not to mention the explanation to many of his abilities). I know you probably omitted it because it is bulky and gets in the way, but since you're just conceptualizing, would it be a good idea to include it's design alongside Pantheon's?

Sorry, I always liked the shield; I always figured it would be his relic "weapon," just as Diana and Leona have their own relic weapons. I like your direction for these though, really like the armor for Classic. Simple, but with a neat design and just complex enough to still be actual armor.

I was browsing Google Images for pictures of Spartans and came across this art. This is, in my opinion, a perfect example of how badass Pantheon could be with a little VU. I was about to start a thread about it, but came across yours first, so I'll post it here. With a few tweaks to make it fit with the current design/lore, I think Panth would look awesome like this. While it's supposed to be Ares the Greek God of War, I think it would work, because as I see him, Pantheon is basically like a cross between a Spartan warrior and Ares anyways.
