I'm proud to present the biggest project I've been involved with! This was the most collaborative illustration I have done so far!

Figuring out a composition with 5 very distinct characters was such a challenge! Mingchen and I jammed back and forth to pitch various thumbnails. Then, somewhere in the middle of the process, we got a big help for the poses from Gerald Parel and Riot Games. We shifted from night into a morning scene for better clarity of the champions. Rendering was super challenging since each layer had to be clean and each character complete. Mingchen tackled Ekko and Tristana at first then I handled the rest of the characters and the background. 3D was used for Morgana's chains for speed and accuracy. I also had lots of help from Mingchen in bringing in those appealing brush strokes, color, value groupings, and overall final touching.

Really proud of what we have accomplished! Thanks again to West Studio and Riot Games for the opportunity!
