These 2-skin champions are fairly new but have not received any sort of skin release besides their classic and the initial complimentary skin. I think they have a lot of potential for some creative skins.

Illaoi I was recently playing with some friends and made a joke about how Illaoi's tentacles could be re-textured into wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tubes with their idle animation being a slightly deflated wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube. We discussed perhaps she could become a Used Car Salesperson or a Fairgrounds/Carnival skin with the red and white striped hat and the sorts. Definitely a comedy skin.

Another idea I had for Illaoi is Elderwood Illaoi. Her tentacles could become huge roots or thorn-branches (Think Forbidden Forest in LoZ: Wind Waker) She also could be reskinned as an Ent pretty easily (also I just think the elderwood skins are really freakin' cool).

Jhin For Jhin, I think his two skins right now are really high quality and I have a difficult time picking a favorite. However, he does need another skin (or two). Really the only Idea I came up with for Jhin that I thought could work would be a Van-Helsing type skin. His rifle could become some sort of crossbow-gun thing and he could be dressed in witch-hunter apparel.

If you've got an idea for either of these two, post here! I'd love to see your responses and hopefully this gets seen by Riot!

Saleswomen Illaoi and Elderwood have been suggested before.

I'm personally wanting something in the Steel Legion/Full Metal/Galactic area. Armored tentacles and illaoi just sound cool.

I doubt they'll ever create that kind of skin for Jhin unless they created a Jhin-like skin for Vayne. Its concept is too similar to her look. I'd personally like for him to have a Galactic skin, with his gun shooting laser bolts and his abilities looking more high-tech (and his Ult shooting more lethal-looking laser bolts). His mask should be halved, one side being low-tech while having a high-tech design etched into it and the other side being high-tech with a low-tech design displayed on it (so like a mix of Kindred's and DJ Sona's masks, with the displays of each mask given to the other mask).

A skin that works more closely with the personality of Jhin is what I want next. Thought of a possible Mastermind Jhin skin: similar to the Super Villain Veigar skin. An over the top "evil bad guy" look with some high-tech weapons and gadgets.
