What's the status on the Nidalee splash art updates?

Moonboy65·Feb 11, 2016·1 votes·3,279 views

I remember Reav3 mentioning that the skin splash arts for Nidalee were about 80%-90% complete. Now my question is this, how close are they to being completed? I'm really curious to see the new splash arts for French Maid Nidalee and Pharaoh Nidalee seeing as these two are probably the worst offenders for her in terms of splash arts.

French Maid Nidalee looks like she has plastic boobs, and it's just a recolor of Nidalee's original classic splash art.

Pharaoh Nidalee on the other hand has the weirdest neck...

I did mention this. I also stated that some of these are being done by various people around Riot and they aren't those peoples highest priority. So while many of Nidalee's skin splash are close to complete they are still being worked on in between projects that have to ship on certain dates.

The Trist/Trundle/Nidalee splashes are all underway but I wouldn't expect them in the next couple weeks or anything. More like next couple months if things go well.

Do you need to ship them all together or can you just ship each individual one when it's finished?

The plan is to ship all of a champions splash updates together. So while Tristana and Nidalee don't need to come out in the same patch, we would like to have all of Nidalee's in one patch, for example.

I can see the thought behind updating them all at once, but it would probably better satisfy the community by releasing them as they finish rather than putting it off until you can do one massive art update.

Please tell me Nidalee base splash is getting updated??? She is one of my favorite champs and it feels old compared to something like Katarina . I would love to have Nidalee in action like in the middle of throwing out her spear for a gank or nature aura surrounding her!!

Are you joking? Nidalee's splash art was updated same date with her full visual update it doesn't need anything else, they mean her outdated skin's splash arts

yea I'm serious the current base splash for Nidalee is not up to the same quality as champions such as Graves Sona and Katarina . Her posture makes it look like an older splash, she needs to be in action. The colors/shading/effects and overall quality of the picture is no where near the 3 I mentioned. Her spear is odd and while Nidalee looks realistic her spear looks like a cartoon spear. You do realize her VU came out in 2012 right?? That was 4 years ago. Her warring kingdoms splash art is up to par and I was hoping her base would be caught up to that level as well. Besides my question wasn't for you.
