@Riot - Faces

Oleandervine··1 votes·390 views

I have a genuine question - you guys seem to be bumping into some issues lately with faces, more so than usual, and I want to know what's up with it.

It started last year with Pool Party Miss Fortune and her square, manly face, then rolled into super derp "Ima steal dat booty" Heartseeler Lucian, followed by the hideous face on Eternium Cassiopeia, all 3 of the Sword skins (Yi, Fiora, Janna) currently on the PBE, and now this disaster of an Evelynn splash. Why have faces become such an odd place in the art department for you guys recently? What has changed to allow for such disjointed faces to make it into semi-final art pieces?

Probably different artist moving all over the place, and they hit a lot more then they've missed.

Assuming this is the same singular artist, you listed 6 skins this year (mf is last year) which is a pretty small screw up ratio to all the ones they did right.

This is true. But in the past, to my knowledge, there were hardly any misses, as most of the artists got it right on the first try.

I dont see your problem with the faces

That's because every one of the mentioned skins had faces that received either minor (Sword skins) to massive (HS Lucian) backlash based on the original splashes that hit the PBE. They all got modified after that backlash.
