League of Legends: Taric visual update concept

I already posted this concept here (http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/a7ulBkBM-so-what-do-you-guys-wanna-do-with-taric-part-ii-pics-or-it-didnt-happen?comment=0121 ), though that thread is quite old and does not get much visibility.

I stumbled upon this concept for Taric, and i really really like it, i think it gets very close to where I'd like Taric to go with his rework: his armor is imponing and heavy, without being bulky or "heavy". It makes him look powerful while still being attractive and delicate. It reminds me of Leona's armor, more than Garen's or Darius'. I also like the design of the shield a lot (less the hammer). In his topic, Ironstylus mentioned marvelverse-Thor as a good example for armor that looks "modern", and I think this one hits the spot.

I'm not very fond of the asymmetric Tiara, though I think he would look cool with a tiara (some users prefered a tiara-less version).

I hope the rework of our beloved gem knight goes into this direction, it's a very good balance between powerful, protective, fabulous, modern and cool, while still retaining all his distinctive traits (gems, hammer/shield, long hair, handsome, armored).

PS: I didn't make this concept, the link goes to the author's page on deviantart

There is just one thing I don't like. Taric is supposed to be a gem-maniac, right? Then how comes he can't even properly cut the gem in his armor? It's like he just mines them out and then tape them to his face/armor/whatever.

This is the taric of my sleepless Knights my wet dream this is legendary this riot needs to be made asap or i See no future for the paladin you seek to make. This is how he should be has similarities To jayce but this has the fab and the stoic paladinish qualities you are looking for make it happen linke bunny riven and you got a deal. I repeat Legendary redesign i even took the time To comment wich i rarely do. Iron stylus Make it happen vor i gonna haunt you with dragonmaster swain for real. PS. I wohnt accept any other taric. Slight variations OK but the Hammer is a must.Looks handcrafted by taric himself . not too big godlike proportions and stylish and defining. Just like we love our precious stones.functional and stylish. Marke it happen i beg you.

There was a thread showcasing this concept a while ago. Again, I show my support.
