Gangplank, the Six-Fingered Man?

I count 6 fingers, counting the thumb. So, should we call Inigo Montoya? Because I think we found the man who killed his father.

"Beautiful isn't it? It took me half a lifetime to invent it. I'm sure you've discovered my deep and abiding interest in pain. Presently I'm writing the definitive work on the subject, so I want you to be totally honest with me on how the machine makes you feel. This being our first try, I'll use the lowest setting."

While I adore a good Princess Bride quote as much as the next person, and while the above quote might seem in line with Gangplank's current artistic hobbies, I'm not sure he has 6 fingers. I think finger number 4 is actually his rather long thumb, wrapped round the pistol grip. Good eye, though!

So wait... that means he has no opposable thumb. . .

I see it check finger four again, it's going the right way.

Don't worry about it Bio.

Slight artwork fail by Riot.

It happens, don't let it get you down. We still love Riot anyways, regardless of the flaws.

Duke AnaxJul 28, 20152 votes

it's not even that long, I just checked when I grap a pistol it looks exactly like that, with the thumb and middle finger overlapping a bit.

SensualMuffinsJul 28, 20151 votes

It isn't even wrapped, he's loosely holding the pistol (more of a rifle honestly) Thumb and Index finger extended, keeping it balanced in his palm using three fingers, and his shoulder is keeping it in place.

It looks really awkward since the angle of the gun makes his thumb look ridiculously long.

Edit: I was wrong, his thumb is curled in meeting his Ring Finger, same principle though.

That would be a grotesquely long thumb. Either Gangplank has a deformed thumb, or Riot's Narrative team made a simple art mistake.

#Riot Art Fail.

Not that big of a deal.

Let's move on to other things.

Narrative team... wat.

The narrative team doesn't work on art.

Looking at the model, Your finger 5 is actually finger 4.

Your Finger 4 looks to be the thumb.

PeriditionJul 27, 20153 votes

Interesting but I think its just blurry art.

Digit 4 is the thumb facing upwards, connecting back with the middle finger.

So basically its pinky, ring and middle finger wrapped around the posterior handle. Index point up around the trigger, and thumb wrapped around the anterior handle.

And you are being rude. Dont you think I didnt known the plot twist from the shown if I wasnt reciting some of its season finale quotes (in small alterations). Again no shite Sherlock.

Again that comment wasnt aggressive (even if it was, grow some back bones will you), now if you dont want aggressive, I suggest you stop pointing out such obvious stuff, get a joke, and dont ruin the joke by pointing out facts that ruin it.

Nobody likes a smart ass in joke comments....there I hope you are happy by ruining someone elses enjoyment of this thread.

Actually your comment right here was rude. I said nothing rude at all.

I beg to differ. Then again you need a brain to tell a difference.

EmbertineJul 29, 20153 votes

And insulting for no reason. I had said nothing insulting to you. From your original comment I merely stated something. After that you've only been rude and now insulting. I have said nothing rude myself nor insulting to you.

If "No shit, its a joke" is rude to you, you are ether a pansy or have not even been on the internet at all.

I think the 4th finger is actually the thumb running along the outside of the gun, you just cant see it because the artwork gives no distinction.

SaphixiaJul 27, 20151 votes

woow thats so strange

Solidair3Jul 28, 20151 votes

4 is his thumb, I think.

Garen, the man with 3 joints in his thumb (Look at old splash)

Rabid HuskyJul 28, 20151 votes

i think number 4 is just the trick of the paint since thats the trigger and it needs space and the lighting is going off his glove certainly weird but his in game model has 5 fingers so im goin with that

CharQueenJul 28, 20151 votes

FluppetsJul 28, 20151 votes

I think it's his thumb, the thumb would normally curl infront of the 2 middle fingers. Especially with the index finger on the trigger, holding the thumb next to the fingers feels very awkward and loose grip. Fingers/hands are really really hard to draw.

numbah 4 is the thumb breh.

Remlap1223Jul 28, 20151 votes

Wouldn't be surprised that Gangplank in all of his badassery made time in between stealing Swain's ship and pissing off the Order of Shadows to murder Ingio Montoya's father, but "finger" number four is actually his thumb. Although I'll admit anatomically if that was the case, he's holding his sword in a very uncomfortable way to his index finger.

Celeste BenalJul 28, 20151 votes

The digit labeled as "4" is actually a very long thumb. Get your eye-glasses prescription checked. Its time.
