Slow your roll about the splash art changes

A lot of the splash arts especially the ones that got unified (with the whole global splash art thing) are getting redrawn. It's not as easy as just drawing the picture and sending it in, hell, drawing just one picture in itself can take days and even weeks of gradual work before it's completion. I've just been seeing too much complaining about the splash art changes and I think we just need to be patient after all "Art is worth the pain." - Jhin

Reav3 said that making a entirely new splash art take 1-2 months

Thanks for posting this. Drawing or creating something isn't easy and takes a lot of time. Imagine sitting down in art class and doing a full painting, top to bottom, from brainstorming to completion. It's not going to take one class to do it, and I'd be surprised if someone could even finish one in a month's worth of art classes. For someone to come up with a great concept, they're definitely not likely going to sit around for an hour of brainstorming before rolling it out.

The complaints about the competitive team skin themes, for example. I'm not surprised that they can't make them kickass legendary skins, I don't know too much about them but I'm assuming they make them as soon as they figure out the winners. That would probably take a while too and I'm sure if they took longer to make them higher quality, someone's going to complain that they're too expensive, or it took so long to make them.

So why not save yourselves some extra work, don't bother swapping splash arts between regions, and just upload the new splash arts everywhere when they're done?
