A New Dawn question
So was it a conscious decision to make all the women in the cinematic look like creepy porcelain dolls with their huge bug eyes and spindly littler arms, or did you just happen to find a modern anime fan who hasn't ever actually seen another human being to do the modeling?
I'm just saying they look really, really off. If you're going for a heavily stylized look you should have all the characters use that style, all the male characters are a much more traditional style and it's really quite sloppy looking when you put them together.
Shame because the animation quality is excellent.
I think that Ahri was really well done, had fox-like features, and moved and bounced around the way I expect a fox to. And Ahri at the end, that was so cool, her 9 tails out, hovering and spirit rushing Darius. The details they had just in the way her ears were super impressive, and it makes it obvious how much attention to detail they had making these champions.
Leona looked like a force to be reckoned with a and standing next to Ahri looked quite imposing with her size. She smashed though that fallen tree like it was a twig.
Katarina is an assassin, and should be smaller in frame. She reminded me of a ninja, small and nimble, but very strong. And her somewhat snarky/sarcastic attitude in the cinematic is what I expected of her.
Zyra was the one I least expected in the way she turned out at first, but I like it, she looked like a plant, moved like how I imagine a plant would move, and was made of a plant. She was 100% a scary, thorny terror of a plant. Her tiny frame is expected, much like the stems of a plant... they don't need to be big to be tough to snap.
