Minor VGU changes on Shen to make him more fitting in a role of a tank

Sup. Ever since Shen existed, he just does not fit as a tank when it comes to his looks. You can look at his pre rework state where he fits even less then now. Now, when you put Shen next to Nautilus, Ornn, Sion, Maokai, Tahm, Alistar (etc.) he doesnt seem as bulky as them. Heck, even some bruisers are more bulky then Shen such as Morde, Darius, Volibear, Urgot. I remember when i was a kid i just couldnt play if one humanoid toy was out of proportion bigger then the other, it just bugged me.

In the next images is inspired by a thing. Not a make a copy of a character but just one part of his clothing.

Madaras skirt makes him really bulkier then he is. Can that be added on Shen under his thigh armor that he already has? As he runs that skirt would spread just like Udyr making him more bulky and alot more fitting to his role.

Shen already has a back lower waist thingy behind him on all of his skins, could that just be stretched and reanimated?

There might be a problem about people confusing Shen and Udyr in game.

I thought it could look cool...

Riot: Shen is a ninja that likes being punched in the face :^) Zed wears lots of armor but he's a super mobile squishy assassin, he'll blow up if he gets hit by any CC Rumble pilots a giant mech but he's somewhat squishy Kled is entirely unarmored but impossible to kill Jhin is covered in magic-nulling armor on his arm and legs to handle Whisper's recoil! Udyr is half-nude and ultra tanky

Also Riot: Kayle can't be fully armored, she's too squishy it would conflict visuals from gameplay

Just give him two swords

Instantly tankier
