I still can't believe Riot allows artists to share the process that's just amazing and very helpful to aspiring artists

@@ngegamesantai_ like I can understand drawing a single piece is tolerable but they have to do it over and over again until it gets approved. And yes finding concepts and inspiration is also rlly hard to do. And their piece aren't just pure sketch too they actually color and render half way just for it to be rejected by the company, so much time and effort will be wasted

Pretty easy on the difficulty scale. Some people are firefighters, some have people's lives in their hands, others are soldiers... and then are these guys that paint xD

@@astico5456 no job is easy, it may seem like it because they literally just sit and draw. Remember this, everyone in the world can paint but there's just a few who got the patience to do a piece over and over and over again. And I doubt that even less can be qualified for the job because this actually takes a lot of time, motivation, not everyone can sit in front of a tablet and draw a whole day, because these actually have a deadline. And after they finish a project there's always a next one, they almost have no time to rest. There's no easy job in the world, if there is then everyone would choose that job, no brainer. Firefighters are on a different scale, some people find it easy because they're actually built for firefighting, it may sound hard but for people who got a fit and strong body + with years of training it's not that bad. It's just the same with being an artist, people just get the misconception that it's easy because they never experienced to be an artist in the first place.

Actually fascinating to see how many iterations you went through and how far some of them got - this is one of my favourite splash arts, thank you so much!

They weren't iterations, they were thumbnails - Riot demands a bunch of thumbnails they can pick from before you start the lengthy work on the final splash. A lot of artists do multiple thumbnails on the same canvas, this artist just preferred to fill the canvas with them instead.

@@SoundlessFantasy They don't pursue perfection, it is their job to make art like this. If they had to make lower quality art (like emotes), they would do that normally.

It's incredible how, despite having brilliant sketches, you kept exploring to find the most spectacular pose and angle. Congratulations, you have done a wonderful job

The way the textures and light is painted is very charming. They look almost too clean, too perfect to be real, and that just adds to the fantasy aspect of it. Great piece.

Wow, glad to see you upload your painting processes more often than before, keep up the good work and your channel will continue to grow much bigger, Bo !!

bro that splash so immaculate that i almost bought that skin without even playing with akali

This looks like one of the most advanced splash arts so far. Insane perspective, colours, and storytelling.

I think its most impressive how you can draw the character in any pose, and get the hands right without reference. like how

It always amazes me to see how Riot artists manage colour values/tones and light on a subject. Also their material rendering is mesmerizing. Would love to know, just for the purpose of curiosity, if you can reach this level studying hard on your own or you have to attend courses and classes (even though i know teachers' feedbacks are important).

@@somethingelse928 I would like to share the twitch channel that is made up of riot contractors called “wildbluestudios” that’s the twitch channel, they do free portfolio reviews every Wednesday and they literally tell you how to go from normal artist to riot level artist.I REALLY recommend it especially as the head is ex riot. The biggest thing they’ve said is rendering is not as important as the fundamentals which you can learn at home if you’re disciplined or of course from a school.

Ok, I really loved this process and this brush because there is no lineart to deal with. It generates some in-between block out, not a blob painting but also not pure lines.

As an akali main I truly enjoyed and watched this entire whole video.

the fact that even with a timelapse everything still shows all the time and effort you put in this work clearly and im grateful to have this help myself to put in more effort in my art and not to give up so easily 😅

Thanks a lot! For posting these kind of videos Bo chen really helps a lot, not only for learning but for inspiration as well.

I loved all the splash arts, amazing job Bo!!

I love to see your processes, I always learn something watching you, thanks so much!

Your work is beyond incredible. ABSOLUTELY astounding to watch your process

Using this splash rn as my account header in LoL. Thank you so much for sharing the process - it's an amazing splash!

As a learning artist, seeing your process is extremely useful. Thank you very much!

bro the way you render is so good, like man. it makes me feel happy lol. gj on the work i really love the finished artwork.

had this as my wallpaper since it was first shown, amazing work

I absolutely love every splash you create, they all have a character to them. Sometimes, even as an artist myself, I get so entranced by creating a piece that I totally forget how many iterations I actually went through to get to the point of completion. Super well done as always BO! thanks for sharing this :)

I bought this skin because of the splash art- thank you for taking us along for the process.

this is probably my favorite Star Guardian splash art alongside Taliyah and Quinn. I just love the pose and the background. I really appreciate the fact that the new SG splash art looks like they’re taken mid-battle in Valorant City

It's so stunning! I'm in love with this splash-art + I'm Akali main so I really enjoyed

This is my favorite splash art ever ever ever and I can't believe there is a process video for it. Ahhhhhh!!!! SO AMAZING. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. thank you thank you thank you.

Im main Akali and I always love your spasharts quality, I'm so happy that it was you who did this splashart of my main champion legendary skin, already knew it because I saw your post on Artstation.

Wow the work you did is just amazing. For me, seeing your process just inspired me not to let go of my dream of one day being able to be like you, a person with such amazing ability. Thank you for sharing a fragment of your essence.

Seeing speedpaints really does motivate me, I'm probably not the only one but ever since I started drawing on a proper art program instead of Paint I seem to think that my drawing needs to look amazing within the first hour.
