Dragon Trainer Heimerdinger

Darkrown·6/23/2017, 12:35:54 PM·357 votes·64,784 views

Hey guys! Here's a skin concept I've been working on for the past few days for Heimer. Since he got buffed/adjusted I've seen him popping up in my games a bit more often. I've also been watching a looot of Heisendong's stream lately so I was feeling the itch to draw some Heimer. His last skin was Hazmat three years ago, so I think he'd be up for a new one soon, and Dragon Trainer is my favorite Yordle skin line, so I thought, why not?

Anyway, thanks for checking this out! Hope you like my idea and if you have any feedback to share, feel free to drop it below, I'm always open to critique. Cheers~

This is amazing and I need it.

Heimer skins are great because there are so many objects and textures that you get a chance to play with and I feel like this would really take advantage of that - great work!

YES, YES, YES, GIVE ME THIS SKIN NOW! Getting Maplestory vibes from this skin. I would pay 3200 RP for this skin and main the champion.

Edit: Imagine destroying the little dragons and they fly away crying. God, this skin would be so hard to fight. I would be sad all the time.

Edit2: Do you have a Twitter I can follow?

Love it dude, great design and artwork. It makes him look badass which I normally wouldn't describe Heim as.

I think it would be interesting if maybe the dragons were half-robotic or something. Like as if Heimy created some cross-breed of robo-dragon he now uses for attacking and defense.

On one hand, this skin is amazing. On the other hand, this will inspire people to play Heimerdinger.....

This would make an awesome legendary skin.

This would give a great selection of Chromas for Heimerdinger

You, sir, need to put in an application to Riot.....like.....now.

This is the kind of stuff that will get you hired on the spot, no questions asked.

Please tell me they paid you for this concept they are using in game.

CasterGilgamesh6/23/2017, 6:26:32 PM2 votes

i love everything but the grnade what kinda sick "tamer" would throw their creatures eggs away like its nothing i would rather is be a giant dragon scale that's on fire tbh or a stone

Funny enough, I thought of a similar concept, but involved a massive clone of dragons to explain how does he have so many stored in his hair and out.

Heck, I'm already writing stories about him, Teemo and Rumble as dragon trainers.

Do hope those 3 do get the skin themes tough.

Hi! I saw this through a reddit post, and I had a thought that might be cute to iterate: since turrets don't move, what if heimer's turrets were hatchling Baby Dragons in eggs? Then when they are out of range, they tuck their heads back into the egg (imagine the top of the shell resting on their head so the egg closes when heimer is out of range).

ºAEON FLUX6/24/2017, 2:20:24 AM2 votes

wow I would drop some dough for this skin

Daamon6/24/2017, 2:21:37 AM2 votes

Azteryz6/24/2017, 3:32:15 AM2 votes

have you considered giving the dragon big zoomed in glasses?

Kaeblen10/5/2017, 5:12:08 PM2 votes

I don't play Heimer, but I would buy him, and probably play him one-trick, just for this skin.
