And yes, that IS in fact a proto version of the Noxus crest!
Happy Halloween folks!
Rudino5 votesHoly guacamole, that's amazing! [sg-ahri-2]
mauyoa74 votesMorde looks better being big like a true armor, this is bad as anime
Sahn Uzal4 votesAnime? How the fuck is this Anime? He used realistic body standards rather than the Unrealistically wide, short legs etc those kind of characters often have.
Ingame, Mordekaiser propably should, and will, have the 'juggernaut' body type, like Garen and Darius etc. But to visualise a concept, I think it's fine.
TheHappyReaperz3 votesYou normally don't want an excessive amount of armor, like Garen, Darius, or Morde. Sure it looks cool, but the idea of armor is to protect you, not to look cool. More form fitting suits of armor are what you see in most Middle Age stuff. That's because armor is heavy, people really don't want to wear that much of it.
Dr Poro9 votesBut Mordekaiser is not 'people'.
Velzard of Koz2 votesAnd aside from that this is fantasy. If we'd complain about over-dimensed armors we may also point out how Darius and Garen would go down with good arrow shot due to no helm and at least 1/3 of female champions might be also easily killable (regardless of being withes or gods) due to suvere lack of clothing.

KuroCaliber1 votesTo be fair, some could probably kill you before you shot an arrow. IDC who you are but if you try to shoot Jinx with an arrow, You'll either eat a rocket or six rounds of ammo.
Velzard of Koz1 votesI mean, you can shoot arrows from very large distance If we're talking warfare and volleys. If ADCs had the real range, then the complaining abou ranged vs melee would get reaaaaally interesting.
JarPoop IV2 votesWell there isn't anything for the armor to "formfit" around. He is practically animated armor
Baron of Bread1 votesAt one point he was a living person inside of said armor. Still, once magic gets involved all kinds of normal rules break down.
GigglesO2 votesUnless you are just that big under the armor... Nothing little about him...
I'm sure his mistresses would agree. [sg-lux]
Jerry SeinfeId4 votesfirst of all well done. it looks good.
But isn't he a bit too thin/small? i feel like he looks less imposing.
Melledoneus4 votesAmazing work! I wish I could draw like that.
If I could make a small bit of constructive criticism... Mordekaiser seems a bit slender here. I understand if you wanted to take away the cartoonishly big armor pieces he has now, but I think he should be bulkier and look like an unshakable giant even if you don't have a point of reference for his (40 feet?) height.
Additionally, as somebody who has rigorously studied the effects of cloth and how it drapes (I love capes, f*ck you Edna), I think your cape seems a bit cartoon-like and almost excessively heroic. I think the cape should drape down a bit around his shoulders and create a bit of a cloak effect behind him so that his silhouette is more enveloping and intimidating. I know this is a rough sketch, but this is just my input because you've inspired my creative juices.
Besides those two little things, again, awesome work. I envy your talent.
JarPoop IV2 votesDam that looks pretty sick! Do u mind if I take a shot at redrawing it?
Vedius2 votesYou forgot the most important part check my account
DuskDaUmbreon2 votesNice, but he looks a bit...thin. Mordekaiser is meant to be numero uno, not size uno.
Baron of Bread1 votesBut what of Nightfall? If he doesn't have a weapon we can't keep his joke. :(
Lord Babkonzerv1 votesMesmering, but one essential part is missing... Where is his trustworthy Nightfall?
Jokes aside, I really like this Sauron like design. It fits Morde very well. If Riot ever gets to his rework (only hopes remain after these several postpones), I hope he will look something like this.
All in all, great work MM (like always when it comes to Morde).
