An actual ton of Zac skin ideas

Aye folks, Zac main here. Anyone who's ever played the guy knows that Zac skins are sadly lacking in both quantity and in quality, generally just being a different palate from the standard. So, in addressing this, I've brainstormed a bunch of skin concepts that I believe are not only fun to play around with but suit Zac's lore. So, here we go!

Snow Day Zac-Pretty basic idea, keeping in sync with Zac's fun-loving, friendly nature. Imagine Zac, re-imagined as a snowdrift, throw in a scarf and re-shape his specials to suit a wintery theme. Not a particularly difficult or far-fetched concept.

Chemtech Zac (PROJECT-Zac? Perhaps could be more suitable)-More complicated one here. Playing on Zac's conception as a living weapon, created by one of Zaun's Chembarons, Zac takes on the form of a mass of nanobots. The animation is a fair step up from a snowdrift but in the end, a much better quality skin that's ought to be popular emerges, one that could be sold at a higher retail price.

Bees Zac (Name is WIP)-Zac takes the form of a swarm of bees, fairly similar to the swarm of nanobots concept. Supposed to be playing along with the Beekeeper Singed skin, Zac has escaped his hive (or w/e), drawing parallels between his origins and the skin lore. Once again, harder animations but much higher quality skin that would be highly desirable.

Battle Boss Zac-Zac is redesigned with an arcade pallet set in addition to some nice pixel effects with animation and specials. The big ol' blob boss is an iconic video game minion or boss, so the concept isn't particularly far-fetched. However, the concept doesn't really fit too well with Zac's lore, so that could prove an obstacle.

Delicious Meal Zac (WIP)-Playing around with the Baker Panth, BBQ Leo, etc line of skins, Zac is redesigned as a pile of food. Slightly less complicated animation than Chemtech and Bees concepts but would surely attract the same sort of attention.

Thanks for reading! Please leave your thoughts and ideas behind!

Instead of making him a bee swarm, I would say it makes more sense to create "Honeycomb Zac". Zac is made out of honey, some honeycomb here and there sticking at him and a few bees swarming around him.
