In all her splash arts, Poppy has a soft face that has really round features. In-game, Poppy looks like she's from Russia or something, and has a very, very angular face with a very sharp chin.
I know it will never change (as much as I'd like it to), but why does she look so angry in-game, while she looks so nice in her splash arts?
NiamhNyx1 votesI mean do you want a nice poppy model or do you want the game to run?
Niyume1 votesYou can very, very easily have both.
Zombie Gerbil1 votesWell, considering she's all set for battles against 5 other champions alongside with another 4 to fight with her, why wouldn't she have an angry battle face on? Not like she's going to a photo shoot and preparing to pose for Teens magazine.
Also, Noxus, Battle Regalia, Blacksmith, and Scarlet Hammer Splash art doesn't show her being happy.
Niyume1 votesIt's not her expression, it's the shape of her face and her facial proportions. They (in-game features) look nothing like her splash arts. : /
Zombie Gerbil1 votesI was replying to your "but why does she look so angry in-game, while she looks so nice in her splash arts?".
Niyume1 votesThe shape of your face can make you look passively happy or mad. Ever hear of resting bitch face? :P
Blaiz Fenix1 votesSplashes are a lot easier than 3D models, that's why. But Riot is getting better. In future updates she'll probably have more similar features to her splash.
Niyume1 votes3D models aren't hard either though.

Compared to splashes they are and in game models are made to be more visible than splash arts. Features are a bit exaggerated so you can see then from further away.
