Can we double the rate of skin creation?

That might be an irrational request, but I'm really hoping some of my favorite champs get better skins, and rather than ask directly (that never seems to work) I'm just playing the odds and asking to build more.

Even if we could get like 3 skins per patch (about every 2 weeks), that would be great! So many champions waiting for skins, Riot has more money than I'll probably ever see in my lifetime - why don't they hire more 3d modelers and concept artists full-time to get more skins created and splash arts updated?

If riot started to favor quantity over quality, I guarente you wouldnt like the skins coming out nearly as much.

Unfortunately Riot definitely doesn't have the manpower to double the rate of skin creation without seriously sacrificing quality in the process.

I also don't have the numbers to support it, but I suspect that doubling skin production isn't worth it for the company in the long run: releasing 2x as many skins might just divide the skin purchasing income among the new skins, while having more overhead for more artists. Not sure on that point though.
