Yasuo - kin of the stained blade Character look dev

I had the great pleasure to be one of the main character designer to work on the look dev of the League of Legends short 'Kin of the Statined Blade'. It was a memorable journey and what I have shown here is only the results of hundreds of drawings made by an entire group of artists behind the scene.

Yasuo was the first character we tackled so he has seen the most changes during the course. We were almost sure to go with the angular hard edged look but in the end we switched to a more detailed and manga looking direction for the line work.

Special thanks to Ideomotor.cn, Haoliner & paperplane for this wonderful opportunity and my awesome teammates 'Tony' Zhang Bo and Zhu Haoyuan.
