[Skin Suggestion] Volcano Rek'Sai

Greetings!

I wanted to share my hopes on Rek'Sai's next skin to be volcano themed.

As a lover of the classical elements I've always been in awe by the synthesis of fire and earth, flames and rocks, fiery elegance and solid stability. This theme fits Rek'Sai perfectly. She quietly burrows through the melting earth, only to violently erupt underneath her prey and unleash flaming devastation upon them before escaping the scene through a glowing tunnel of molten rock.

I'm sure I'm not the only one with this idea, as it fits Rek'Sai like a glove. I do plead, however, for this skin to have a pure, elemental theme. No evil or demonic stains ruining every fire-related concept. Just pure, non-aligned elements.

I think a volcano/lava/magma/obsidian theme would fit best. Scorched Earth sounds cool, but the current Scorched Earth skins don't seem to be elemental. They just ruthlessly harness the destructive potential of fire to brutally mutilate complete environments. (I like words). I'm also concerned that the metal (also found on Renekton and Xerath) would overcomplicate the model. Beauty is often in simplicity. After all, we're dealing with elements here.

Let me know what you think of this concept and of my current interpretation of it. Feedback is always appreciated.

Thanks!

Only issue is I feel the magma/lava coloring would be too close to the Eternum colors. Other than that, she is too new to get "skin-blasted", come on it's not Teemo XD

I was thinking of an "Alien" type look for Rek'Sai. It may be a bit odd but "Head Hunter" Rengar is similar to a "Predator" in Alien vs Predator.
