Dark Star Jhin

I'm not a very good artist, so I can't draw out my idea for you =P

First off I'll start with the costume

His mask could be similar to his current one but elongated, colored a reflective black ( or purple, silver,gold) with a thin but visible overly toothy grin, as well as having

welding goggles that look like swimmers goggles to contain the brightness of things in the void behind the mask. Occasionally during taunts you could have the goggles lenses

flare bright colors like white, orange or red.

When he removes his mask for taunts there could be a void where you see stars wink out ,alternately you could make it so he has special interactions IE; picking a fitting

voice line for him to use while he absorbs a butterfly into the void that would be his face or having him toss a toad into the air and have him strike a pose and he lets it

fall in.

For his voice you could just add a bit of reverb and ambiance, his dramatic performing personality fits great in a grand space style skin, his voice lines work fairly well for

it also.

His arm / bandolier and cartridges ( and possibly boots?) could be slightly broken apart with a light/dark bluish or purplish energy connecting the pieces (the pieces being

possibly gold/silver metal with a purple or red slight glow on it )

His guns could be a bright silver/white/gold motif, futuristic styling and while his ultimate/W is being used purple energy could be tightly circling the barrel, focusing more

in the end.

His cloak/pants could be styled in dark metal similar to the other skins but with the cloud motif still etched in, while possibly having the underside ( as well as the collar) a glowing orange or purple. The clasp of his cloak could be a gem containing a small void with a colored star inside or possibly just a glowing orb of energy.

For a recall animation you could have a small animation where he points at planets in a small solar system that appears around him and as he does so the collapse. Or possibly his normal recall with him on top of a dark star while stars rain instead of rose petals into the void of his face.

Now onto his kit.

Passive: You could use a soft fuzzy purple effect for when he hits with his first 3 attacks as well as for the line left by the bullet ( similar to dark star varus R ) and a

bright purple and orange effect with a red or gold line for the bullet trail for the fourth bullet. The character echo that follows him during his speed up could be gold or

even be a constellation that looks like him blinking behind him.

Q: You could make his grenade into a small dark star that turns orange or grows slightly large upon killing a 3rd minion with it. Alternatively, it could be a

asteroid/meteorite instead of a grenade.

W: The passive of it could have a similar looking icon that is more styled to dark star theme, while having the zone created under an enemy when this passive is activated look

like a vortex of energy, a small black hole or small purple hands. Using it would make a bright purple/white streak with fuzzy edges, the distortion created being mostly white

with purple edging and dark purple fog/fuzz.

E: Pretty easy =P Tiny dark star that slowly goes supernova or a black hole that slowly grows before it implodes.

R: The edges of the ultimate could be golden or purple gasses or energies, styled similar to the current. The bullets fired could have rotating energy around it with

purple/blue/white energy/gas trail, the last turning bright orange with a red and white energy/ ignited gas trail. Add a kind of spaced out reverb to his ultimate where it

sounds off but still grandiose.

I'm a huge science fiction fan and I really like Jhin's dramatic personality, I feel this could be one of the best pairings ever! =) I could easily see Jhin as a herald, the

universe his new stage.

I don't think I've missed anything but I'll check it over later and possibly update it =)

Similar to the one topic I posted about this same skin, hope you get more replies than I did.

Well, the mask and the suit should be a bit more different dont you think? its like the next step, a new existence for Jhin, something similar to Thresh and Varus, its far over who we actually know as Jhin

not more googles please, i had enough with high noon, they seem cool but over time they just are too notorious

The changes in taunts would be cool, but those are just for legendaries or ultimates, and the Dark star line already has a legendary skin, it would be cool though.

Personally i think the energy colours for jhin should be crimson red and white, but that's more a personal choice

Apart from these little observations, I see everything fit for Jhin and quite good, hope this helps you to improve it even if only a bit

And yes, you are lacking just a small detail, a recall animation.
