New Tundra Hunter Warwick splash needs bigger eye!

The detail and execution of the new splash is brilliant, but I think you need to adjust his eye size. He looks like a blind mole at the moment because of his tiny eye. Tundra Hunter Warwick is my favourite skin, and I would really like his clear, shiny, blue eyes to be more visible.

SUGGESTION 1 http://imgur.com/bnhBS31

Wide open eye

SUGGESTION 2 http://imgur.com/353WwC9

Smaller, open eye

My first suggestion may have too big an eye in some people's opinion, but with the pose it felt natural to me to have his visible eye wide open. What do you think?

Compare it to his base splash, and you will see that he has bigger eyes: http://imgur.com/owVLK1k

I personally like the smaller eyes. It makes the gaze more piercing, in my opinion.

To me it looks like he is angry because he lost his glasses. Compare it to his base splash, and it looks even more out of place: http://www.newsoflegends.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Warwick_Splash_0-1024x604.jpg It does not look like he is squinting, just like he has really small eyes, which does not look right in my opinion. And more importantly: does not look right when compared to the base splash.

I think balance can be struck between the two.

Looking at his brow bone you can see he's actually squinting.

I first thought about the same thing too, but at the same time it does not make that much sense. A ferocious beast like Warwick does not seem like the kind to squint his eyes or flinch when striking, nor mind the snow when in the heat of battle.

The same expression and position of brow bones are in his base splash, yet he is not squinting. It looks more like he is angry, concentrated, or both.

It just looks weird to me.

I think his eyes are small so he can see better in the snow....

He's squinting in Tundra, so of course his eyes are going to appear smaller.

The one you made looks much better, I mean, yeah he is wolf, he needs bigger eyes xD

Added a more conservative approach. Remember that this is just a suggestion and just shows a concept. Riot would most likely also be more conservative, but I made a more extreme example to show the difference, and it felt natural to me because of the pose etc. (like stated earlier).

My concern is that his eye is just too small.

I own the Tundra Hunter Skin for a long time and I liked the old one so much, it was so cool. I want to have the old splash art back, this one is NOT cool at all... I am so disappointed that the image changed so much...
