I just bought Irelia 
and realized that her default skin had very odd hair. In her default skin art she is resembled with white hair. However, her in game appearance has blue hair. Also, I realized that her Chinese art has black hair. I was just wondering why she has different hair color, and whether this was put on purpose or on accident.
Kouga4 votesI have a bigger problem with the way it sticks up all spikey at the ends. Just don't think it looks good.
Kasumi AFK God2 votesIn her updated splash art that was teased in LCS, I think her hair was a dark midnight blue so i guess they're running with that.
naked women1 votesBut Isn't her default splash art still with the white hair?
Sukishoo4 votesHer current default splash has a white tint to it, but it's still the same color overall.
The replacement that was seen during the LCS recently http://puu.sh/eSk1R/543ceb5601.png is a much better representation of her.
naked women1 votesOh, okay
1st HanarSpectre1 votesThe "lighting" flavor they add in splashart is often misleading. Kog'maw's default splash used to be red, which of course confused a lot of people since in game he's blue. There's been quite a few more too, liek angler jax and more.
naked women2 votesGuess they repeated the same mistakes...
lDontLiftIcarry1 votesomfg I know right? her hair is like an ugly blue now LOL I saw a base skin irelia recently I've had frost/nightblade since their releases so I didn't really notice tbh.
junglerboy161 votesYou must not realize how light makes hair shiny, because her default has BLACK HAIR IN THE SPLASH. Really, the number of people who don't get how this works astonishes me.
Amberspark1 voteshonestly tho. You shouldn't have to "get how it works" to see what color it is. If regular people that don't look at it scientifically or see it with an artistic eye that sees what they're going for doesn't see it, it's not a failure of that person. it's a failure of the person making it.
Color is changed by light and the environment, yes, but to make it look right you have to change the hue of -all- of the colors in the same direction. The colors need to look right in relation to eachother, not just on their own. Honestly, as a piece it suffers from an all over the place color scheme and very pale shadows. You don't make shiny things by making an entire part desaturated and light, you make something shiny by making the dark parts darker and lighter lights and less midtone to create contrast. Like in this: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/c3/86/ef/c386efb97df4526cb0f717343ea8838d.jpg This is shiny. Irelia's hair in that image is not shiny. It's near the same shade throughout the entire thing and it's too light - and again, her armor is bright bright red, no affect from the environment hardly at all. This is metal. Metal should reflect far more light than hair.

Stellafreyja1 votesHer hair to me looked like a pale green or even grey. And then you load into game and it's blue.
Irelia needs a visual update anyway. Her neck is so long and thin it makes her looks weird, along with her face looking like it's being pulled back. Her mouth is tiny too.
Boulderox1 votesdidn't they just fix her problem where there was a black line down the middle of her face last season?????
