Description
Editx3: More super minor retouches brrrz.Editx2: This is the most I've retouched an image... ever! But I fixed some of the things that were bothering me with the face and stuff.
Also yay! Summoner's Spotlight! I'm happy it was accepted and very honored.
Edit: Lightly different version, fixed some of the proportions in the arm and added in a bit more detail as well as fixed some things that were bothering me. yay.
Swain, the Master Tactician aka the best champion in LoL! Not like, best gameplay wise (I think he's strong, I'm just very bad at him) but my absolute favorite.
This is one of those pictures that just came out beyond all of my expectations. It's been awhile since I've drawn, and to come out of the blue and make something like this made me really happy. It's not perfect, but I am satisfied.
I could have not done this picture without help from the jawsome [link] who helped me with the lineart on the armour (seriously, if he hadn't translated it for me into something that made sense I would have abandoned this picture) and also for providing excellent moral support while drawing this. THANK YOU A TON AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.
The pose is loosely referenced from a photo, and birds are weirdly fun to draw.
Anyhow, Swain belongs to Riot Games and he's pretty much a badass.

As if Swain wasn't already a total badass. The showcase has shown me another great work it would seem, very nice job.

Very nicely done. The only thing I notice is that the left (most forward) arm seems a little small.
I really like the muted colors here, I think its a nice effect, but I'm not sure how I feel about the "pop-a-color" red you have going on here with the bird eyes and the rings. The eyes pull from your focal, and the rings are so small that its more of an annoyance than help to your composition. I would try using the same colors you used for everything else on the eyes and ring, just to see how it looks.
Great work.

If the light is coming from above and to the right, there wouldn't be shadow there?

A bit late, but thank you very much for the critique! I love critique and it's so rare that I get it on here 
Anyhow, I made some changes following your suggestions, though I ended up keeping in the red... I just like the red content a bit too much and it didn't look as good to me without it.
So, in that way I am being a bit selfish lol. BUT I fixed the arm and touched a few things up. Thanks a ton!
