First Skin Concept (idea): Jungle Fury Vel'Koz

Hi everyone. This is the first skin concept i ever made, hope you like it. :D Since Vel'Koz only has one 1 skin (+ deafult one), i thought that it was about time, for him to get a new one. I made a carnivorous plant looking Vel'Koz, because i think it fits him. (maybe Vel'Koz adapting to jungle environment). I already thought about , how the "skills" look, and i will post them for all of you ASAP :)

The name i choose for him, was Jungle Fury Vel'Koz, but i am open to suggestions.

I made this skin concept only using paint.net, so im sorry if it doesnt look that good. ^^ I really hope you all like it as much as i do. I would like some feedback, since its my first skin concept. :)

Dont forget to keep an "eye" out for more :P (im so bad at jokes..)

Update #1: In order for his abilities to fit the jungle theme, i thought about a "vine" concept like "Only Plays Zyra" said; Q- (Shoots a vine ball, that explodes into more vines with spikes and flowers); W-(Shoots a vine through the ground, that explodes releasing spikes); E-(Huge spikes come out of the ground, knocking up champions or minions); R-(He puts all tentacles together, to shoot a large vine, or lots of vines);

(+ green looking passive).

This skin is amazing. Beautiful artwork by the way I am jealous lol. I really like the concept and it would be nice to have more floral champs besides just Zyra and Maokai

Not a bad concept. I really like how you were able to make vel'koz look like that. He's one of my favorite mages and I would mind having a skin like this. I approve.

I feel that it'll just be a remake of Zyra's passive, but just floats and shoots lasers. I mean, how would you implement his abilities to the theme?

I just don't see how a "floral/jungle" theme would apply to VK. Take a look at his release skin, hiss battle cast skin is a great one because they were able to manipulate the visual effects of his kit into the theme. I do not see spirit energies, note, even though Kuvira had a spirit cannon that shot out purple energy, it does not apply to this scenario, being shot from our observer.

I guess j do not want to see Zyra's and Moakai's theme on another champion that results into an underwhelming skin. If it is going to have a lot of vine/a vine concept, maybe it'll be best to save it for another champion.
