Masquerade Evelynn Texture Update

I just came across a video showing off the texture update for Eve, in regards to making all the champs look better for the upcomming map, but it seems like the team working on Eve forgot that her Masquerade skin is meant to be white, not a normal caucasian but white. Right now the texture update for that skin specifically just makes her look like a woman in cosplay. Maybe it is just me, but I loved the bright white which really brought out the purple. It's like giving Zyra a regular white persons skin tone, she already has a cosplayer look to her and that would just make it worse.

There's a good chance this isn't final, but there's no harm in pointing it out just incase.

Here's the video in question btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLt5bDod-Jo

I expected a full makeover for evelyn, similar to Sion. Didnt Riot at one point say that there wont be any new skins for her until her rework ? For this ?

Is this an intentional change riot?

I honestly think Evelynn's visual upgrade wasn't good enough. In any ways, the texture balance is good but I would be careful with Masquerade Evelynn and Tango Evelynn skin what I saw wasn't appealing and makes me wish I haven't bought those skins. For a Widowmaker, I think she's not enough seductress/sexy. I used to love Evelynn but the more I look at it, the more I think it's not fitting your own description. It would be wise to consider something to solve this unpleasing appearence of her. You did a lot of wonderful visual upgrades in the past but this one was a complete mess. I think we should summoner 14 her and let her {{summoner:10}} in more vampiric aspect.

Personally I think it's a fine adjustment. She could be a little more powdery white, less peachy, but it's not bad. You need to keep in mind that all of these texture updates are dropping the high-tones and high lights of the character models. This is a good thing. The old textures were over saturated with colors that would be painful to the eye in a real life setting. The intention for her old color may not have been costume white but an oversaturation of white highlights of lighting on pale skin. The tone down so far has been good in my book minus a few exceptions like Desperado Cass.
