Gravekeeper Quinn Skin Concept

Basically, the idea was that she honors the graves of the people that passed away and have no one else to remember them, fixes up graves that have crumbled into nothingness, and protects the newly fresh ones from grave-robbers and pilferers wanting to makes some quick coin. Valor watches over the graves from above, while Quinn keeps an eye out from below. It seemed like such a skin fitting her personality, considering how noble and cut-throat she is. Recall 3 items pop up: a lantern, a tombstone, and a shovel. Valor lands onto the shovel's handle and hands Quinn 2 flowers. Quinn puts them onto the grave. She stands solemnly over the tombstone. A fog sweeps over them, 1 second before the recall ends. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C0qKIZ1UAAAXlTj.jpg I wasn't exactly sure what to do with Valor, because in almost every skin, Valor has worn some sort of armor. I have a few ideas though.

  1. Valor is a huge crow. (When Quinn channels her ult, or when she uses her Q, crow noises can be played).
  2. Valor is a black vulture with yellow tipped wings. (but a cool-looking vulture though, because vultures are kinda ugly).
  3. Valor is a black hawk wearing leather armor. Quinn's passive marks targets with a gravestone indicator! Inital Concept https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C0qCcU4VEAE4hrz.jpg Rough Revamp (with hood off) https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C0qKJdOUkAEH1lg.jpg

Really solid concept. I like to think this is a version of Quinn that never quite moved past her brother's death--certainly, that recall mockup had me thinking it was his tombstone.

As far as criticism goes, I think her leg armor and footwear could use more. In the first image, they look like plain ole' jeans and boots, but I think they could be made more interesting, especially since Quinn's legs make up a decent portion of her character model, due to the top-down perspective of League and her idle animation. If it were up to me, I'd also take her outfit in a more gothic-y direction, or at least make it reminiscent of the Shadow Isles in some way, perhaps by trying out a different color scheme and/or design (tons of graves and tombstones for Quinn to watch over in the Shadow Isles).

Anyway, those are just some of my suggestions. If you're happy with how your concept turned out, then awesome! There's always other ideas you could explore to make a skin stronger though -- I'd love to see more concepts from you, personally ^-^

so wait, why does her recall not include her stomping ghouls coming out of the ground that yorick has?

If her recall was stomping on ghouls, I'm afraid it might be too similar to Slayer Jinx's recall.

I mean the way Yorick does it in his recall. Where he stomps on ghouls popping up from the ground. Wouldn't that look better on her? O nvm, that is Yorick's JOKE not Recall. But I meant something like that.

I imagine it's because the skin has nothing to do with ghouls, it's about protecting the graves of the fallen.

Besides, why rip off Yorick's recall to give it to Quinn? That would take away some of Yorick's uniqueness IMO.

Something like this? Maybe it could be hands of the dead popping out or their heads? And then she stomps em the same way yorick is doing it? To keep em in their graves?
