Library Mayhem
I was asked to draw a promo picture for the new Little Guardians in Legends of Runeterra, celebrating the new piltover/zaun expansion. The fan-favorite old guardians were dressed up as existing zaun cards, messing with the new piltover legends. Was really a fun one, since I rarely draw tiny animals.
Final piece - all toned and with a good kick of saturation
Finished coloring, with all due accents and halftones - now to a good fix!
Added some effects in the background
In this piece I tried to put all the easter eggs I could, meaning the whole League printed publications -- and a few things by yours truly. I am now canon in Runeterra.
Flatcoloring is done!
Background painting - in a lineless, softer style to avoid clogging the foreground pieces
Lineart and mask bases are done!
YES I USE 3D. Instead of building a difficult perspective that most definitely wouldn't be good enough, I used my 3D skills and sketchup to build a library that will definitely follow the laws of physics and perspective.
More refined sketch (If you can call this refined)
Picked option: library!
