What is most iconic to Urgot's upper body?

I'm making a skin concept for him for fun, and I want it to be a more, human Urgot riding a machine rather than a dismembered part machine Urgot. So what's most iconic to the actual upper body of Urgot? I'd say personally, the face mask and the gauntlet.

It's going to be rough to capture that, because the things most key to Urgot's upper half are these:

  • Face mask
  • Enormous mechanical gun arm.
  • Giant grinder stomach.

the face mask was my next best guess

So... I actually replaced the stomach with the creatures head, he sits on top like Nunu.

I was thinking the lower half is either a bug or a squid. Which devours things on the ult, while Urgot himself sits on top in a basket or just loose.

personally I'd say the shape of his body, the wide, bloated, yet muscular form is really what makes urgot's upper body so recognizable

Ok, but obviously I can't translate that into something like Star Guardian without meming the hell out of the design.

I mean, I guess I could give him a poofy shirt, but I'd rather not.

For human urgot, the face mask. The grinder stomach won't translate as a mouth for your concept, and the gun arm can be replaced with any form of non-integrated weaponry.

What do you mean "the grinder stomach won't translate as a mouth"?

If you want him to be an unaugmented human you can't really give him the stomach. You just have to whatever he is riding have the stomach mouth.

Ohhh okay I understand now. Yeah I was going to have what hes riding be the mouth already lol. I'm thinking Squid or some kind of bug.

The breathing mask and the gun arm are the most iconic trait of Urgot's upper body.

That's why they're the defining feature of his upper body for both version of his iterations.

To some extent, his pale skin, and I don't mean just light skin, I mean pale in the sense his skin looks like it's sickly pale or from a pale dead body, is also an iconic defining trait of his upper body.

.......

His lower body is defined by his machine spider legs.

Sickly pale skin is important to classic Urgot but its not at all important for recognizing him in game. Most of his skins don't follow this, but are still recognizable as Urgot because it really isn't that defining.
