@IronStylus a question about Tristana's update (and other yordle girls')

Hello IronStylus, i hope you read this post

I have a question about Tristana and her recent VU. It seems to me that with giving Tristana a (much needed!) anatomy, her outfit was changed from a suit with big metal gloves and boots, to a short-sleeved top and bare midriff. While i miss "packed-for-adventure-tristana", i'm not discussing the choice, I was just wondering why you chose to do so? From her new V.O. it's clear that she's a tough, self-confident, maybe even mischievous yordle girl, and she's also a competend soldier. She reminds me of Rainbow Dash from the My Little Pony show (was that an inspiration?). Another minor thing is her body shape: she looks more adult now, and has a slim, nice body. Will this be standard for other yordle girls? While I can accept bare-midriff, "attractive" Tristana, I'm afraid what Poppy could become at this point? I think Poppy is a good opportunity to show a different female body shape (even if yordle), I imagine her as sturdy, muscular, and not exactly "pretty". What should I expect her to become? I hope she will be different from Tristana (not because I don't like Tristana, she looks great, but because I think you could use Poppy to explore/show other kind of female champs).

I'm sorry my english is not the best and it's hard to me to explain what I mean, i hope this post is not too confusing :(

Uhhh sure just don't make Poppy fat. She's not a fat tub of lard rolling on the battle field. That's not her identity. She's a speedy Yordle that wall slams people and bashes them in the face with her hammer.

Oh nono, I sure don't mean she should be fat

let's see if I can find some reference...

Ok, found something (gotta love Tyshaea's gallery, she has some very different characters among both genders :D)

I think poppy could be like this http://fav.me/d64e8g3 or third character from left here http://fav.me/d6m26f1

less like this http://fav.me/d7zwxvr

Does it make sense?

I think. Would something like this also work for what you have in mind:

Ya, as a Poppy main, I'd be fine with that if Riot decided to do that.
