An honest not-troll (and only) critique about Caitlyn's Splash

This is the new splash

Something I don't like nor I feel is appropriate/characteristic from her is her new "baby face". She has light blue eyes and a smoother face that makes her looks younger

Now this is her old splash . This looks more like Caitlyn, a 25 year old woman with a look in her face and eyes that makes her feel a determined and experienced but young person. She looks more serious, but not like bitter-serious (is that a thing?), and she looks more like her Lore describes her which is a woman that has successfully chased many criminals and in the new splash she looks more like a 19 year old girl. I'm not saying that's bad, it's ok, it just doesn't feel Caitlyn. We can see the same face, expression and eyes in other skins. (this and this) .

Kind of sad that face made it to the splash but whatever

Isn't Riot IronStylus in the rework department? I'm disappointed IronStylus! :P

I'm disappointed that she didn't get a respectable skirt.

Don't know. I like the new splash but i would have been more cool if she was changed in game to.

They did change her in game:

Her hair was changed from dark brown to deep, midnight blue on all of her skins. I actually wish they'd left it brown on the Resistance Caitlyn skin. It went better with the red beret....

They also altered the color of her outfit to a darker purple to match the splash, on her primary skin. Her hat looks different, too, but I can't put my finger on what they changed.

The only thing we should be grateful for, is that Senpai noticed her. >.> Thanks IronStylus!

You think she looks 19? That's a rather well-endowed and bold 19 year-old then. Her new skin still looks like it fits 25 years-old easily. Also, the new skin has her skirt and under skirt longer than the old one.

17-22 to give you a range. I don't see what's the point with her skirt? I wrote my only complain was her face. I'd say 19-22 but there're younger girls that look like +20 seriously, time changes!
