New Splash Arts?

So we've been receiving new splash arts for quite a while now, but I can't help but notice some of the more "art challenged" champions have yet to see any improvements.

Namely, I'm talking about Evelynn, Skarner, Yorick, Anivia, Irelia, Poppy, Swain, and Taric.

I understand some of them may have reworks or visual updates in the works now, but what about the others? I also understand that these things take time, so I'm not trying to strong-arm or demand anything, I'm just curious as to why some champions got new art and others who need it just as badly have yet to see some.

Replace Anivia's splash with this: https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTc2ICMJX8Gne2PoE2IT8uwJ0g_D1FpBl7J3kB7RiDZyAv5bkKH

Most of the champions you mentioned are scheduled for a VU at some point, you'll just have to be patient.

i feel that all champions you mention (minus Swain and Irelia) are going to undergo a huge thematic overhaul where as updating them with a shiney new splash would be a waste of resources since theyd get a new splash to match their new look.

Well Eve,Skarner,yorick,Poppy and Taric are probably getting major changes to their designs once they are updated. As for the others:

I'd say Skarners splash art actually looks pretty good compared to the newer ones. The newer splash arts usually look like they capture the champion in the middle of a fight

Swain and Irelia might get some slight changes with a VU,but I doubt that they'd be that major.They should be able to do something similar to Tristana(giving us a splash now and then updating it,when the champ gets updated)

Anivia doesn't really have an excuse,she got a slight TU at the end of 2013(not to be confused with the Texture rebalances),so i doubt that any visual updates are in the works for her.

I just assume they have one artist locked in a room forcing him to make splash art as fast as possible. The last person on the lore team was also in the room but the artist ate him months ago
