New Tristana splash on PBE (2/13)
I'd say an improvement over the first post-VU one, but can't help but feel she looks a bit like Voyboy....
What do you guys think?

Eh... I dunno. This one looks more like her in-game model, so that's at least consistent. The thing isn't that either of the new splashes are bad... It's just that the first splash they re-did for Trist was AMAZING. It will always be my favorite splash that they ever did. It's perfect.
So, no matter how good these are, it just feels like they will never measure up. No offense to the artist who did them, but I REALLY dig the one live currently.
Definitely better than the first, but the current 
splash art is just so perfect in everything that there is really nothing Riot can do to make an acceptable replacement.
Sometimes it's better NOT to get it right the first time.
I'm... Gonna be flat honest here. I think the first updated splash was better. Artistically, this one is superior, yes. More detail, pushing the boundaries of things more.
But her face straight up looks disfigured. I might get flak for this, but I'd honestly prefer the original update. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3vzbLyDxBjs/VMGcFG_v29I/AAAAAAAAiO4/zhe4Zl2Iatw/s1600/Tristana_Splash_0.jpg

Okay, I can see the problem now. The eyes, the teeth, and the ears.
That's what concerns me.
Looks a million times better.
I still prefer the old Trist though.
I like her body shape more in the new one but liked her face more in the old one http://media-titanium.cursecdn.com/attachments/64/534/635576183666180819.jpg
She looks better. Definitely better. The other version looked goofy. This one felt more... less cartoony. If that makes any sense.
Definitely better then the first try, but while fixed a lot of the previous issues they actually intoduced some new ones.
I feel a lot more comfortable looking at her face (not this loony toons/ uncanny valey thing) And her Body has the appropriate bulk now ( no longer head on a stick)
However her ears are too big, her left bracer is too small and her ankle is almost non existant. These were all right in the last splash.
I like it! Way more polished and looks great! Seems like it could use a bit more polish though...maybe I'm just delusional. I dunno, seems like there's a bit of lacking definition, particularly around Trist's face and chest, but yeah other than that this looks bad ass!
Well I like it.I say keep it.
I like the anatomy of the new body, but I'll forever miss her tiny yordle mittens.
Rip.
Critique wise, her right (our left) cheek is chubby, or at least it appears that way since her other cheek has a crease from where her mouth turns upwards. I'm not sure how I feel about the eyes and whether or not they're throwing me off. I don't care much for her lashes at least and much more prefer the direction the concept and the other splash art took.
Is she blowing up Noxus?!
They fixed the issue where she wasn't looking at the fire. Could use more explosiony effects and less just "fire", and she still looks disgustingly cartoony.
