Papercraft skins are awesome!

Ahri Body Pillow··69 votes·23,374 views

Just wanted to say that I really like this papercraft skin line. They look super nice and are a breath of fresh air from a lot of the current skin lines and robot/high tech oversaturation.

Excellent work Riot!

i know its way too early to ask for a garen skin after he already got a really good one not too long ago.

but whenever you decide to give him another skin in the future, it would be awesome if it was a paper craft skin. doesnt matter if its in a year, or longer. it would be a really refreshing change from his usual serious and soldier themed skins.

serioulsy, he has 9 skins and theyre ALL military themed skins, and different takes of a soldier from different factions, or of a military leader. even though i love the god king skin, it would be great if he got something entirely different at some point. the paper craft theme does look pretty awesome.

Hmm... your name checks out!

I can't make promises on behalf of the skins team as a whole for what will or will not come out in the future but I know the team is constantly thinking about stuff like this (along with champion fit). If you do have a chance to check it out, I Am Carlos gives a really great rundown on skins for 2019 and decisions in general. I'm sorry if that's not a super satisfactory answer at the moment D: but do know it is a part of our conversations!

They are GREAT my man, making those couldn't have been easy, I've been so bored with all the robot skins, these are a breath of fresh air. As my main man, merchant from resident evil 4 says, "ahhhh... I'll buy it at a HIGH price!!"

I like skins that are gambles like this. They're fun, creative, and such different takes on the characters. Sci-fi and oh-my-god Robots, have been done ad nauseum, and at a certain point they blur together or we become so numbed to them that they don't excite us anymore. That's why I think skins like these, and Coven, KDA, Cooking Masters, Dark Waters, April Fools, and other such off the wall skin lines are refreshing breaths into the game. I think the game definitely needs more unique skin lines, as well as a lot more goofy, punny skin lines because those kinds of things really appeal to players on a whole different level than the done-to-death sci-fi and robots.

On a side note, I think Camille would work AMAZINGLY well for Papercraft (she brings her own scissors), and if you ever tried revisiting them again, she'd do much much MORE AMAZINGLY well for Sewn Chaos (the scissors, and thread spools).

Happy to see someone else who appreciates them after all the negativity I've been seeing regarding these skins! I think it's a really cute thematic and I hope they explore it even further with some more champs later on.

//I especially love the Anivia one, makes me want to try picking her up actually, lol. I just hope the fix/change the textures on her W bc they are looking ROUGH right now.

Agreed. It's one of the more unique and interesting designs Riot has made for a skin line in a while. Honestly I'm just happy to see new skin lines that aren't more robots. (Speaking as someone who likes robot stuff)

They actually are really cool! I think it's a fun little skin set. been awhile since we had just fun skins just to be fun skins and not part of a bigger AU.

..

But even with that said. We all know Riot is gonna have enough money to retire, come back, and retire three times more once they release their Boy Band equivalent of K/DA. We all know it's gonna happen, say what you want about Riot. They know how to make money on a FREE to play game. And they do it with respect.

Deidara? Really like her(?) name.

This skinline is a really pleasant surprise, like a really good idea you got whilst high that you actually remember to write down and are still impressed by the next day.

edit: As Dr points out Die doesn't use paper-mache or anything, but clay according to a wiki.

Naruto Nerd here! Deidara is a guy and I beliee Punkkee is referring to the character Konan, who has paper powers and often used paper wings to go about. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/39/5a/95/395a95f6aac7b7df7bd669978f688c8a.png

Always good to see a fresh skinline. They're really creative and interesting to look at. I hope they've got more on the way. I think Fiddlesticks would be a great choice and Camille too even.

Give the turrets such skins too, and let them unfold as the armour plates drop. ^^

I haven't done any origami since 3rd grade, but this brings back memories.
