Please Update Safecracker Evelynn: Splash vs In-Game Model

Think less than a week ago, I was talking about how the splashes they revealed for Eve didn't seem to have any of them reflecting her base's skin color.(1) However, once they did show her models in-game, a lotta people wondered why Tango's skin color in-game model was so different from the splash. They ended up changing it, arguably for the better,(2) but I'm curious as for whether or not they'll change her skin color for Safecracker's splash art.

You can even see the in-game models side-by-side for the skin colors of Shadow and Safecracker here: https://youtu.be/NMtmDo_e7js?t=1m14s Her skin is clearly a much more pale white like that of her base skin. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S-GuUn-13Qg/WcpJw_IzQDI/AAAAAAAAvnw/SUaPslgFajEWjICQb4fpYsxF6r_aiawYgCLcBGAs/s1600/evelynn_splash_4.jpg

I wouldn't say that this is as off-putting as the Tango in-game model vs her splash was, but it would be nice to have the splash properly reflect the skin .__.

I agree but if Riot didn't even preserved the burglar theme for Safecracker Evelynn, I would not expect too much for her skin tone.

I suggested to preserve the burglar theme keeping her original all-black leather catsuit and adapting her "tentacles" to hooks and ropes that burglars would use, in the same way they adapted them for Tango Evelynn to be part of her dress but most people seems to prefer her new supervillain theme with tentacles and a Sci-Fi bodysuit. I hope they will at least add back the real-time shiny effect that the original catsuit used to have, this is also shown in the splash but it was not applied in the in-game model.

I really will miss the burglar theme of the original Safecracker Evelynn.

Safecracker Evelynn is a 750 skin. It has less visuals effect change than Shadow Evelynn a 520 skin. I don't understand why the skin cost more and is lower quality. Shadow Evelynn has the quality of a 975 skin while Safecracker Evelynn looks worse and costs more than Shadow Evelynn. The W for Shadow Evelynn marks the target with a blue heart, while Safecracker Evelynn marks the target with the same heart as the og skin. Riot please make Safecracker Evelynn a better quality! Upvote if you agree.
