He should be grey, cyan blue is not his color.

If they do update his appearance, I hope he doesn't blend into the map at all (which he seems to do here unfortunately). Otherwise, he's long due for a VU.

This looks great, Riot should do this. The previous Kog'Maw looks ugly How can i work for Riot or paint something like this?

That's an absolutely amazing VU mockup.

This needs way more attention.

Maybe make him stand out a little though. You can barely notice him

Could give him a spooky purple Void aura that flares up when he uses his W. Poor Koggy is rather lacking in spooky purple particles as it is.

Now that looks like the voidborn Giga-carry we all know and love.

This needs to happen.

It really does, doesn't it?

Koggy's in-game model looks nothing like his adorable splash art.

That's because they changed it. It used to look far more like him than it does now, and to be honest, I have no idea why they changed it.

They changed it, yes.

The old splash art was pretty terrible looking, too. Not only was it just a touchup of his character model plopped into Photoshop, the color was wrong, too.

The new splash fits a lot better with the visual themes of newer Void champions.

Now that I look at them, the new one is definitely better. It has a lot more detail than the old one and the shading is amazing. But I DO feel that your distaste for the old one is undeserved. It looks distinct enough from his model, and I don't see how his color was wrong, unless you're talking about the chinese one.

The original Koggy splash was more of a purple and pink range of colors rather than light blue and grey. Though that might just be the result of the weird lighting in his old splash.

Also?

His tongue-thing.

There's something about the way it's stuffed in his mouth in the old splash that just looks off. Almost like they made him with just a gaping maw, then realized they needed to fit his weird invertable pharynx in there somehow and they just plopped it in.

The new splash looks like a vaguely adorable bug-lizard that would be cute if he weren't eating you.
