EDIT 2: gonna throw this here so the preview of the post shows the main concept and not my messy maiden drawing. :) https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C7VWeThVAAEtsYN.jpg

Hey guys, Im a big fan of yorick and have been playing him since before his rework. I'm sad he still hasnt gotten love in the form of a new skin, especially since it has been almost 6 years. I understand that after a champ update there's probably not much need for a skin since all their skins are technically new, but I still think it's a little too long, especially since he is decently popular now compared to before his update.

I'd think the skin could just be around 750, but since the ghouls and possibly minion would get different appearances it might be more realistic to say 975.

Yorick's shovel could stay a shovel, but I also like the idea of a hoe. Maiden isn't included in the picture, but I think her turning into some form of scarecrow would also be cool.

So I decided to try my hand at making some concepts for the rest of his abilities. Maybe instead of a scarecrow it'd be easier to make maiden a plant too, and I like the idea of making her something like The Great Pumpkin (Charlie Brown reference for u youngins). For his W wall I liked the idea someone suggested of a fence (even though with my art skill it looks more like a wrestling ring), but turning it into plant roots might be easier too.

I also think a simple colour change of his E from the greyish blue to a brown would work, making it look like Yorick is flinging "fertilizer" at his enemies :)

And, when he lands his E, have him yell, "EAT YOUR VEGGIES!"

I made the same thread a few months ago, and all I have to say, we have the same minds. Everything you said is similar what I wrote. The only addition I would like to include is, instead of the black mist cape on Yorick, it should be replaced with a water sprinkler to continue the farmer theme. You know what they say, Great minds think alike :)

I would find it fun seeing angry carrots/potatoes/tomatoes or whatever you want his ghouls to be run around :D (in my own opinion it would be awesome if they were different kinds of vegetables, not just one). I like this idea :p maybe make it 975 rp skin. What about his walls being farm fences?

This is the best Yorick skin idea I've seen since Tonka Truck Yorick (or whatever the hell that Construction truck Yorick skin idea was).

Still a more useful scarecrow than Fiddle.

I also created a thread like this a little less than a year ago. Honestly, the best part of this idea is that it builds itself. I feel like it is so fitting and because of that.

check out my take for more ideas, this idea needs a graphic artist for sure (not to diss your drawings, you took a stab at it which is more than me).

I'm a simple man, I see love for my boy Yorick I up vote. Better make the walkers pigs though, I think it makes more sense than evil carrots. Snowdown and Pool Party Yorick need to happen too.

this would be awsome

Actually God-tier artwork, im not kidding, It gets the idea of the skin across nicely not everyones an artist. Although the maiden could use corn-husk hands, dont know why i thought of that but i guess itd give her a more Scarecrow feel.
