New Jinx skin concept

Hey everyone,

I've been thinking about posting something like this for a very long time, but I always had that same feeling just before submitting a post, telling me that it's not worth it.

This time I decided to share this one with all of you so I know what do you think about it.

So, being a Jinx main, I really liked how this champion does not fit in "good guys" of league of legends, which makes her unique and her skins can vary a lot. Jinx is not very popular since nerfs on crit items and it feels bad not to see her in solo queue anymore. Since the new Lucian skin release, a lot of people play it just because the skin is OP and I hope I can do the same for Jinx. As I said previously, I've dedicated a lot of time to this and I would really like you to give me your thoughts about this.

Without further time waste, let's get to the skin.

Skin name: Guerilla Jinx (or even "Commando" Jinx with "" because she could somehow "infiltrate" in commando squad without them knowing its Jinx)

So this skin would be all Jinx which means it will focus on her guns and would probably represent her in a whole new light, not a vandal who operates in massive destructions in Piltover but more of someone who's working with rural peace breakers operating mostly in jungles and rural areas. More of this will be obvious once I show you my concept.

HEAD

This part is the most important one which literally decides what will she look like.

In my concept, she wears an eyepatch and a headband keeping her hair from falling near her eyes. The headband is not colored on my concept, but most of her gear should be painted in olive green. Of course, her hair looks differently (is not made of 2 braids but one which is equally long as braids on her classic skin). It's not obvious on my drawing but there are piercings in her ears and nose. The second thing about her head is the color of her hair which is supposed to be black. Here is the drawing I've come up with: http://tinypic.com/r/2q8c1du/9

BODY

For the body, I came up with something original I guess since I haven't seen it in League yet. So the top part will be a simple grey tank (or whatever the name is) which will be vertically and horizontaly (within the belt) covered by bullets. This gives her the original look of a guerilla (Rambo like) expressing her tendance to operate in rural areas which means she's not as sophisticated as real soldiers are.

Regarding the arms, I didn't add a lot of stuff except an arm band on her elbow. She'll wear finger cut gloves as well.

When at legs, she'll wear camo (or olive green) army pants with a lot of pockets and a band on her left leg just above the knee where she keeps her knife. I also considered few bombs on her belt but I didn't draw it.

Boots will be big (up until the knees) and will be pure army boots. They should give her that "dangerous" look as they should be really big and matching with pants.

Here's the drawing: http://tinypic.com/r/14df2mt/9 And please don't blame me if it's poorly drawn, it's just a concept and a mere presention of my idea.

WEAPONS

This is the most interesting part but you'll be surprised by what I thought would go well on this skin.

For her gun I thought of a simple AK 47. There are several reasons behind it. First one is the fact that she's fighting in rural places like forests, jungles and terrorizes local population. I couldn't think of anything more original. It would be the first time we see something like that in League. The second thing is, well Jinx. She's someone of wild nature who'll use the best artillery and AK 47 is literally the first thing that got in my head after thinking about it. It would really add up for the already presented appearance. The color of AK 47 could be anything, varying from classic up to red and black, or full black.

As for the rocket launcher, I thought of a classic RPG which would go really nicely with the AK47. Rockets are presented on the drawing and should be painted into olive green and red (red should be the parts on the extremities).

EFFECTS

I did not really think about effects, I mean I did but I couldn't make them visible because I don't have the required materials for it. But her ult should look exactly same as rocket launcher rocket just bigger.

The issue with this part of the suggestion is that you hold an AK 47 very differently than Jinx holds her mini gun. This would cause visual confusion and mess up her silhouette.
