Blood Moon Zilean feedback - please add your vote! :)
I really like the concept for Blood Moon Zilean, but I do not like his current in-game model. His splash art looks stunning and fierce, while his in-game model looks a bit dull with a more "friendly" mask. He also needs brighter reds.
Take a look and compare for yourself:

In-game Model http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Sn9iF86goiY/VTgyhfl8juI/AAAAAAAAong/_V9dX5luKpo/s1600/zilturn.jpg
The differences and what to do 1) The splash art has dark and bright reds, while the in-game model has almost washed-out reds. Even on the border to dark orange on his shoulder pads and arms. Please make the reds more like the splash art and more in line with the Blood Moon concept.
2) Zilean's shoulder pads lack detail. The patterns are too clean and look nothing like the splash art. The different sections of the tip in yellow lack contrast and are hard to distinguish, at least from a distance. The patterns make the model more interesting and can be compared with the Abyssal Nautilus' gilding.
3) The mask in the splash art looks fierce and angry with glowing eyes and horns, while the in-game mask has more of a smile, no glow, and no visible eyes at all.
4) The pattern and trim on the edges of his shirt arms are too big on the in-game model, which leaves very little room for the red colour. This results in less clarity and too much yellow. Please look at the splash art and adjust the model.
5) The splash art has big, red-glowing hands with long and pointy nails, while the in-game model has regular, white hands. Seems dull in comparison.
6) The in-game model lacks the red inner-cape of the splash art. It would add more colour/ life to the model.
I am really looking forward to this skin, but hope that at least some of these issues are corrected before the release. What do you think?
[EDIT - made a colour correction suggestion] Added contrast and brighter red to the Blood Moon Zilean model.
- Added a brighter red to the whole model (just Zilean and the red eye of the wheel = better clarity)
- Added contrast to his shoulders, mask, edges of the shirt and his belt
- Gave his eyes a red glow http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/stigtrix/Blood%20Moon%20Zilean%20-%20Front%20-%201.4_zpsbzqx8fjb.png
[EDIT 2 - added a suggestion for Time Bomb] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/stigtrix/BMZ%20-%20Time%20Bomb%201.1_zpstlna9gs1.png
