The 12 Days of Karthus - Day 3: Skin Concepts
D2Vincent again into Day 3 of the 12 days of Karthus! Today we're gonna go into the many Skin Concepts made by the fans specifically for Karthus :) This is a list of different skin ideas that I've found across the internet, and my personal opinion of them. I'm curious as to what you guys think, so please leave feedback in the comments!
Note: Most of the images on this list I'm simply getting off of Google Images, and it doesn't show who made them.I'll try to find the artists, but all Credit goes to the artists who made them though! :)

#Blackfrost Karthus
Artist: Unknown
One of the earliest post VU skins I've seen, It seems to be a simple frozen/Freljord version of Karthus. Would be cool to see something like this, if not in concept, then maybe in FX? (in case of Snow Day Karthus maybe?)

#Soul Reaver Karthus
Artist: 카서스꼬리뼈
Looks to be a Soul Reaver skin, looks kinda cool and the theme seems fitting for Karthus. Would the FX be similar color to Soul Reaver Vlad/Draven? I dunno :P

#Blood Moon Karthus ##Artist: Unknown
Not a big fan of the Blood Moon skins Personally, but this Blood Moon Karthus skin seems pretty dope tbh. Red FX on his spells would be pretty cool, even though maybe it would conflict with how riot handles his FX in general (blue for your team, red for enemy team)

#Full Metal Karthus ##Artist: D2Vincent (Me :P )
Yes, I'm putting a skin concept that I made myself, but tbh a bunch of other people have made other metal concepts to Karthus, I just decided to use my image. :P Seriously, Karthus has sooo many ways he could be made into a robot skin. My concept in particular involves both the use of an orbital Death Lazer to obliterate enemies, but also Nanomachines in place of the souls he collects.
Many of these skin concepts have images to match, but I sort of came up with a couple of concepts that don't have art, have concepts of your own? Feel free to put them in the comments!
#Pizza Chef Karthus
Something I came up with a while ago. The idea is that Karthus wears a chef's outfit with apron and hat included. His staff is a large flat pizza spatula, and his book is one of those "Better Homes and Gardens" books. His Q's are pizzas, his W has those classic pizzeria squares (black and White checkerboard), etc. seems like something fun for a skin :P
#Candy Karthus
there's only 1 reason I'd want to see this as a skin.... SKITTLES! (it's a meme for Karthus where his Q's are called skittles since they're small and circular) :P
#Arcade Karthus
Now according to a leak (which is supposedly fake), Yorick and Viktor are supposed to get these, but I think it would be cool if Karthus got an arcade skin :P
That wraps up Day 4 of the 12 days of Karthus. Now I was gonna make tomorrow's post in the Gameplay boards, but to keep conversation fluidity, I'm switching it up to Story, Art, and Sound and gonna be talking about some of the other Fan Art and Cosplays for Karthus. Till then, keep Ulting folks! :D
