Hello Everyone!

As a Kayn Mayn (pun intended) i like to regularly look at some skin concepts. The soulhunter Kayn skin is pretty ok, but i feel like kayn could use a new skin in about a year or so. This is the reason why i wanted to show you the Candykayn skin concept! I don't know whether this was already posted here, but i think it wouldn't hurt to post this. If mosts already know this, i will proceed to delete this.

The Candykayn skin concept is, obviously, somewhat of a christmas skin, because of the overall candykane theme, while, for example, Ivern's skin is more like a general candy themed skin. I personally like the Concept, as it just fits kayn's charater: The overly confident, edgy Kayn in a blue, somewhat noble, clothing while Rhaast looks somewhat monster-like, menacing but still loveable visuals. Basekayn has also this undecided yet confident vide on him with his blue and red striped clothing.

Here is the concept's Basekayn skin design: http://i.imgur.com/iWHervs.jpg Sadly, i don't know who made this, but it is definitly not mine. *Edit: the artist is @ZeOcelot on Twitter, better known as VegaColors on DeviantArt. Here is the link to the original https://twitter.com/ZeOcelot/status/891080519655448576/ A big thank you to Rolling Girl for letting me know! [slayer-jinx-catface]

While seaching, i also found another concept by hiddenstylus with a more edgy, grinchy style: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/6ygA0

I hope you like it and I really hope Rito at least thinks about making this skin for snowdown next year, maybe even just for the pun in the skin name!

Best regards, your friendly neighbourhood Mexikayn

The artist is @ZeOcelot on Twitter, better known as VegaColors on DeviantArt. They've done more amazing skin concepts then I can count (most of which lots of people on the boards are probably familiar with, like Dog Walker Thresh and like a million gorgeous Kindred skins) Source

Took literally ten seconds to find lol They do a lot of really nice art so I recommend anybody interested to check them out and show them some love! Their lovely DeviantArt gallery

Jesus fucking Christ. Please. Make this a thing. I would main Kayn just for this skin.

I think base kayn needs a little bit more blue. perhaps blue hair with red swirls instead.

Only if I get my Candy Karthus skin. I've been waiting to be able to cast proper skittles for TOO LONG NOW

I love how shadow kayn's boots are ice cream cones.

or at least look like ice cream cones to me.

The candy cane needs to be personified a bit more. Not sure how you'd do that, maybe give it a top hat and moustache?

I would love more Candy skins, but that Shadow Assassin has one huge readability issue. The hair needs to be a lot more wavy and long so that he actually looks like Kayn, and not some other person.

Mexikayn1 votes

ye all this can be adjusted. i personally wouldn't know how (especially because this is not mine :3c), but if one development team could do it, it would be rito

I like that name haha, 'Mexikayn'. I had an account called 'Dark Angel Kayn' but he just wasn't really my thing. I only liked the scythe and the shadow assassin form.

LeafyGreen1 votes

I was thinking something more along the lines of Dark Candy Fiddlesticks so it would be Dark Candy Kayn.... not like ivern's candy skin. I think it would look much nicer. I get the point of it being all nice looking on Kayn but it feels a bit forced

So I like the skin it self, the design is neat and it's really unique too,but kayn's personality is edgy and dark so I don't think it will fit in.

Kilmam1 votes

Star Guardian Syndra is a thing though. I'm not sure personality is a huge factor sometimes.

F0rseSh0t1 votes

If it's a thing, I don't think it was a good skin or an art for a champion like syndra, and I don't think it was the right skin to choose. Otherwise I personally think that the best skin for a certain champion is a skin that adds a lot to his personality.

rito tries to contain certain elements of their characters when creating skins. Sometimes they stress them, sometimes they try new instances of the character, like a "what if" scenario. Imo the skin is pretty fitting to Kayn. trust me, i heard his voicelines sooo many times. He personally is pretty confident about his abilities and tries to use them for good, but the defines good in another way. "A true assassin kills one to save many", for example suggests this way of thinking. The Shadow assassin form of this concept stands true to this. He looks noble, but still confident about him self, like he is the best that is out there. True, some elements are missing, like his long, wavy hair and a dark, menacing blue color, but that a minor things, that can be added later.

sadly, I personally don't have a way to draw digitally, so i cant really draw a version like that.

Candy King Ivern devouring his subjects is another example, that recall alone makes it not fit for Ivern, that would never hurt another animal or plant, much less devouring them

I like everything except the bow tie/ribbons

PLSSSSSSSSS MAKE THE ONE FROM THE WEBSITE THATS SO COOL*[zombie-brand-mindblown]*

Needs more Lollipoppy face on Rhaast.

Sancre1 votes

I love those designs, base Kayn looks a bit strange, but the other 2 are really cool. If they added some changes, like SA's missing long hair, Rhaast's scythe being a broken Lollypop to resemble the wicked Rhaast form scythe, and maybe exchange the color that represents them, as base is already blue on SA and red on Rhaast

if i could draw digital, i would do it! sadly, i cant, maybe i try to edit it with some other things i find online

As a Kayn main, yeah. This would be a great skin, but, the only problem is, Kayn and shadow assassin look kind of ...Gay...

Mexikayn1 votes
