Jem Flores' icon art is dope

These items are just some of the stuff he's done. The item icons in game are too small for me to appreciate, but when I went to the lol wiki and saw them in their full glory, only then did I realize how aesthetically pleasing they are. The colors are so vivid and the shapes give each one a distinct feel. Bami's Cinder radiates with heat energy. The cuts on Morellonomicon penetrate through the text like my spells do on squishies once I get this item. I can feel the power just by hovering my mouse over the item icon in shop. It just so happens that most of these items are my favorite items to get, perhaps the icon art is so good it may have altered my subconscious. Great stuff.

Here's some items by him/her but bigger https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/e/ed/Icons_concept_01.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20161208132858 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/4/4f/Icons_concept_02.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20161208132949

Looks pretty great right? I never really noticed how detailed they were.

On another note, RoA icon looks outdated as heck even if fits thematically. Wouldn't mind if it got an upgrade though.

Yeah, he does good art. Nice to know the name of the artist now. I had noticed that item icons had improved a lot over time. All of these items look pretty outdated: item 3115 item 3101 item 3123 item 3027 item 3135 item 3082

Also, this one isn't old, but it looks like a carrot: item 2015 Seems likely that Jem drew that one, but it's just not his best work. It could possibly be redone. No offense intended; most new icons have been awesome.

He needs to update the rest of the item icons.

The best part of the game are visuals and themes; art and music included.

What is the item under Lost Chapter, and the item to the right of Deadman's Plate? The latter looks awfully familiar...

Makes me wish some of them could be Summoner Icons tbh

Not its not. You have to be really silly to put highly detailed icons in a game where they will be so small that every single detail on them will be lost which will make them look like cheap bland crap. This thing about new icons ticked me off really hard for a while. I actually like many old icons much more.

They indeed are the most impressive but so is item 3046 & item 3814 .
