Blood Moon Shen Overhaul

Recently I bought the Blood Moon Shen Skin and I really like his Splash art and his ingame model. But still there are some details that bothers me. First his mask doesn't really fit to the other blood moon skins, because it's way too dark and it lengthens his face and the mask looks dull and not really like his splash where he is a menacing looking oni. Another thing is that doesn't fit either is his spirit 'kanabou' and his sword on his back, which is very odd and another thing is that the colors don't really represent the Blood Moon theme. I know this is very subjective and feel free to disagree on my opinion, but maybe other Shen Mains see this like me. Maybe Riot could change him, when Akali receives her rework because her Blood Moon skin also seems to be outdated. I would appreciate if some people would comment on my statements.

Yeah, the Blood Moon Shen Splash Art and ingame model are fine. But they can easily add some red colors on the Q, W and R (even on the shield from the passive).

Shen will be the last one to dont fit the "new" Blood Mood stile. Akali with the Rework (iirc) will fit.

Yeah I 100% agree on the Splash and his armor is awesome too but the mask still bothers me because it looks clunky and my opinion is that the masks are the core of all Blood Moon skins, but his mask just looks like a skull and he looks somehow bored (even TPA Shen has a more fierce glance) I just want that this skin can compete with the coolness of the other Blood Moons.

the thing about splashes is that they're not supposed to match the in-game model

they're meant to show how the skin/champion would like like in the real world (or Runeterra world)
