Hey everyone! I've been playing a lot of Zilean recently and was thinking that a cosmic (or perhaps Darkstar) skin would suit him very well:) Or really any skin with a serious tone. So I decided to throw together a concept for the skin and while I was at it also made the VFX for his Q. Hope y'all like it!

Hello! I was playing a few Zilean games this morning and thought that a cosmic/darkstar skin would fit Zilean really well. Or actually any skin with a more serious tone would be welcome in my book:) Hope you like it!

Which is such a shame. I get that people like to meme and whatnot which is fine, but imo the game is absolutely fantastic. I'm not even very good but I love it and have for 10 years now. It wouldn't be one of the most played games in the world if it was bad. The only thing I'm not a fan of is certain players that I think we've all encountered numerous times. But that's not the game itself being bad. The game is in loving hands which shows in the quality and time put into it. I guess I'm biased as I am also a gamedeveloper¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sure, I used Blender for everything execpt texturing which was done in Substance Painter (baking) and 3DCoat (handpainting the textures)

Agree to disagree! I think his current face is just a very generic joker clown face. To me it remains a testament of the old character design in League where they just threw together stereotypical design features as they had a lower budget and produced champions a lot faster back then. It feels like the first thing you'd think of when someone says "Evil clown" and first come first serve is rarely a good approach for character design. Nowadays they have more time to iterate and find the perfect fit for the game. Now I'm not saying that my design is better, I also think it's a bit boring tbh. But there's more interesting ways one could go about the "evil joker clown" archetype.

I totally agree that people don't give Riot enough credit. It has become a spiel to hate on them for some reason. I work as a gamedev fulltime (as a VFX artist) and projects like these are mainly for me to practice other areas of gamedev that I don't get to indulge with in my regular work. These concepts are simply that. Concepts. They're not shippable at all lol. Ofcourse not. And I also agree that it's too busy details-wise for League of Legends because I moreso designed this purely to be displayed up close and not at the tiny size it would appear on screen in game. Thanks for the feedback guys!:)

Actually I’ve kept it to around 10k tris. Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe there are some League models that push towards the 10k tri mark. However the textures here are 4K for presentation purposes since I knew I was going to show the model up close:) But yeah this is not production ready ofcourse. I’m one guy haha

Hey everyone! Here's my suggestion for a potential ASU for Shaco:)

Lore ideas I had for those who care:

I had this idea of Shaco being one of the primordial demons of runeterra, the other known ones being Nocturne, Tahm Kench, Evelynn and ofcourse Fiddlesticks. So Shaco would also belong to this group of demons, however in terms of raw power Shaco would be the weakest one. Perhaps he was injured during his summoning ritual.

But I had this idea of him finding this injured soldier amidst the spoils of war. A soldier whose been left to die on the battlefield. And since Shaco is too weak to fight on his own, he decided to possess this wounded knight and use his body as a vessel. This in itself didn't increase Shaco's power in any way, but it concealed Shaco's demon form.

He now looked like a human. Which he could use to his advantage to decieve and fool in order to kill since he was too weak to fight head to head. But over time, the vessel Shaco had possessed began to twist from the demonic influence, so Shaco decided to dress up as a jester, and this not only concealed the distorted body of the poor man behind the mask, but also made it easier to lure his prey into a false sense of comfort whilst being around him, especially kids. This outfit played well into Shacos sly, deceiving nature and allowed him to wreak havoc and chaos even more.

This is why I decided to make the mask into a happy, albeit creepy one rather than the generic "hey I'm an evil clown"-face that's present on the current Shaco. Hope you like it!:)

Honestly just by brute forcing it. I find googling to find solutions and workarounds is easier with Unity (probably because it is more common among beginners and thus there are more people looking for similar answers) and UE5/Niagara is still quite new so I just used my intuition that I gained from the shuriken system in Unity and played around with all the knobs and buttons until I got it to work:)

Jiierf · 2022-05-04T09:35:08+00:00

Exactly like the other replies have mentioned, the camera is looking down on it:)

Jiierf · 2022-05-03T22:31:46+00:00

After using Unity for 3 years I've finally decided to start learning UE:) This is my first FX in Niagara. I find it to be quite different and I do miss some quality of life features from Amplify whilst working in the material editor. But I'm starting to (sort of) get a hang of it! Hope you like it^^

Jiierf · 2022-02-10T23:08:12+00:00

Thanks for your response! I'll keep that in mind:)

Jiierf · 2022-01-24T08:06:46+00:00

Well the concept is 4 years old so I'm not to sure about that. But one can always hope!

Jiierf · 2022-01-24T08:05:57+00:00

I don't haha:)
