One well-known artist has created a brilliant design for a new skin for Irelia. How does it look?
Among League of Legends fans, there are many great artists who have honed their skills over the years and today create works of the highest level. Some of the people who started with fanart from games, over time were hired by the creators of their favorite titles.
Riot has repeatedly contacted brilliant artists who gained popularity by creating fan skins or characters. Today, these individuals work for the studio and draw splash art for official skins.
One such employee occasionally publishes drawings that depict his personal concepts for skins. The works are so good that many fans regret that they are not part of League of Legends and the skin depicted on them did not make it to the store.
Skin idea – Spirit Blossom Irelia
The author of the great graphic depicting Spirit Blossom Irelia is Bo Chen, a well-known artist from the United States. His works are certainly known by every League of Legends fan, as this artist works with Riot and has done a lot of splash art whether skins or basic portraits of heroes.
Dark Cosmic Lux, Spirit Blossom Yone, K/DA ALL OUT Kai’Sa, Pool Party Caitlyn or basic Senna – all these graphics were created by Bo Chen. So it is safe to say that he is an outstanding artist with great talent and experience.
His Irelia of Spiritual Blossom looks truly brilliant. The graphics are dynamic and in an interesting way relate to other skins from this universe – in the background you can see two heroes who also have Spirit Blossom skins.
The author has taken care of the smallest details. Those wishing to do so can view his graphics in high resolution or take a closer look at specific elements in the enlarged image fragments posted by the author.
Some may be familiar with an older concept for this skin, which you can see in the last graphic. An early version of Irelia’s Spirit Blossom appeared in a separate article, which showed other interesting fan projects – Flawless ideas for new Spirit Blossom skins from LoL. Which of them should appear in the game?
