Borrowed the tweak edit from another poster and did some things myself. The last one is mine. What do you guys think:

What I did:

  • Added more baby fat on Ahri's face
  • Increased the emphasis on the eyes
  • Thinned her hair out so it's not as poofy -- Lowered and reshaped the mouth
  • Recolored the lips so there's not as an intense color
  • Took foxfire Ahri's ears and edited it into the tweak
  • added quick outline of bell thing

You guys like? If so, comment and like?

Your edit makes her look scared/worried. Ahri is a confident seductress, a cocky smirk would fit her, imo.

We're getting closer and closer to redoing the whole splash before Riot an edit anything. I think she's almost there. How much are you able to do from this point? Can you do something about how small her ears are or somehow make her hair straighter and less matted? Possibly longer?

From what's been done by both of you so far, this is looking fantastic.

Sorry but no, let me explain...

Her ears look short because of the perspective, the round of her head will inevitably cover them enough as to almost make them disappear, in this one Riot is right, no hair on them either since those hairs tend to happen at the base of the ears and its base is hidden by the head as well. making them larger in this perspective would mean that she has gigantic ears...

The tint change I dislike as well, Riot was trying to portrait her in a secluded by nature forest area, not necessarily at night but with enough foliage as to make the ambient darker, as for why, well, she's a spirit that steals souls... she SHOULD be hiding all of the time, her past splash art portrayed her like a goddess which she is not.

As for her face, again, perspective, try to imagine her front, if her eyes were like the first edit's she would look really funny. not Asian certainly but oddly alien, your edit has the same problem but less prominent. Her expression in either edit fails to portrait Ahri as innocent and seductive at the same time which Riot managed to do spot on.

All in all her splash art features changes based on correct anatomy and for that I'm particularly thankful. Which I like about your edit is the change you did on her hair, since Ahri's model mostly features straight hair and now this one has these waves that makes her look gorgeous but aren't really Ahri-like. Getting rid of that patch of hair you took away makes her look like her hair is straight again but is moving in her opposite direction, as it should.

Your ears are better. Face is not.

I said it on your other post, I'll say it on this one. The edit makes a world of difference.

Oh, and with the ears... the ears look a bit out of place. If you would lessen the amount of fluff coming out of them, make them about the same color as her hair, and lengthen them just a bit it'd look perfect though.
