(Skin Concept) Lumberjack Braum

The idea for this skin is a simple, yet may have a lot of parts to it. That and the fact that I have no true artistic talent, I cannot supply a concept art.

Braum is from a harsh environment that probably requires a lot of lumber, thus, this skin makes sense beyond the fact that it has a cool look.

Model: Starting with the average Braum, simply add a flannel shirt, overalls of some design, and a hat to tie off the base character. His shield is replaced with a large piece of pine wood with an ax lodged on the outer edge. As with Braums poro, maybe a blue tint, resembling the idea of Paul Bunyan and his blue ox Babe. (Just for a little fun there.)

His particles would naturally change to a vibrant green, his Q launching the ax or a green avitar of it, leaving a trail of pine needles instead of the normal wisps or blue, red, or yellow. The shield (his E) could be green or brown, depending on the look that is being sought. His W would be green as well, slightly lighter or the same shade as the "popped" shield (after the first hit to the E).

The main aspect I enjoyed coming up with though was the ult. As he ults, pine trees come from the ground, replacing the icicles from his base skin. When they finish, the trees topple over like they have been but by an ax (or more importantly, his ax.)

This is an idea I had mulled over for a while now, so tell me what you think and offer suggestions. Even if it doesn't come to be, it's still fun to come up with ideas and get others to help expand a design.

Braum is a good candidate for the theme, but Sion's already long held a lumberjack skin. I don't think most players will want to see another lumberjack... it just waters down the originality of it for Sions everywhere.

...besides, Sion actually carries an axe. Can't cut lumber *with * lumber.
