Rival Talon- League of Legends skin, Joey Morel-Carrier

Hi, I'm a Artist and a gamer.

Talon: https://cdn0.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/002/771/792/large/joey-morel-carrier-rival-talon-skin.jpg?1465518060

Katarina: https://cdn0.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/002/860/972/large/joey-morel-carrier-rival-katarina-001.jpg?1466559480

I'm starting a Skin Series called RIVAL. The concepts need to include rivalry on the champion. For this exemple, Talon's rival is Quinn; the bird's skull on the blade, claws on cape.

Next one to come: Katarina Du Couteau ( friend's of Talon) for the same concepts since Swain is her rival.

Let me know what you think of the idea. Hope Riot can and will approve all this.

I think this is an interesting idea and has a lot of potential! Good work! Talon Waiting for a new skin for Talon. He deserves one.

Great skin, too bad it's "too scary" for league. They're censoring the crap out of everything so little snot nosed brats can play the game >.> Seriously cool skin though.

I like both the concept and the art style. I think its honestly good enough to influence some of the newer skins riot would be willing to come out with, because I see a lot of potential with the whole rivalry concept for many different champions. Any particular reason you started with talon?

and most importantly:

Khazix vs.Rengar

Jesus, fuck! This is awesome! I've seen so many skin concepts that look way worse than this and have made it in the game but this one seems like the highest quality one yet and also fits with the theme. 9/10 man.

As a Talon main i love this new idea and the splash art too. hopefully riot will take notice of this bc talon really needs a new skin. Hope this gets as much attention as the Soulreaver Talon idea that's been on the forms for like 3 years now

Hi i liked all your art styles and was wondering if you could make a splash art for a champion concept i made. I have what he basically looks like, if you want to talk about it you can add my LoL and we can private chat

looks great! it looks like a replacement for crimson elite talon.

a small suggestion tho, quinn? really? i always thought it was lux vs talon both being the siblings of kat and garen, who are both huge rivals.

That looks cool but it reminds me a lot of Forsaken Jayce. And I think the concept of rival skins would mean you'd have to release the two rival skins at the same time, one for Talon and one for Quinn (or whoever you pick). Or maybe the splash art could have both Rivals fighting so that they're in the same image. Otherwise, how do we know who are the rivals?

Not sure if the rengar/kha'zix one is too "cliche" but i think you could make a badass Rival Rengar, cuz lets be real, Rengar is the best ;)

Heeeey from 1 artist 2 another, this is a great Idea AND great splash art, that perspective and detail is amazing!

TenshouSNK6/10/2016, 10:02:09 AM1 votes

Can you explain to me what the purpose of this skin is? I don't get it, is it a mixture of both champs?

Also why do you feel that Quinn and Talon have some connection.

This is a good idea! As a mastery 7 talon main I am looking forward for some new skins and changes for talon and also katerina. Hope riot looks into this! Also be sure to vote if you want talon to get a rework or not here.

For how long do you draw already? Talon is my favourite champion and I got some basics down with digital painting but I always wondered how one can create such awesome artworks. Have you got any advice where to start in learning that style?

Thank you in advance, you did a great job!
