Description
This is the early ideation thumbnails of the champion Syndra. Her codename was "Sym" so the name you see on these pre-production art is placeholder.As you can see. These thumbnails were just for exploration, meaning, I'm not committed to anything. All I know is that she is an Ionian who manipulates gravity. So I was keeping it very lose, not worrying about the art quality, and just focusing on finding unique shapes and elements.
If you guys have any questions about this, feel free to ask! I'll do my best to answer them all.

Does the skillset or the design idea come first? I thought they had some more specific descriptions on how the champion should look like.

It changes depending on the character, some start from a story idea, some from ability or weapon ideas and some just start from an aesthetic origin.

Thanks. I figured it heavily depends on that.

I would love to see "J" worked into a future character design

Ditto! I forsee something very support-ish... a halo of healing/ protection or something, but can expand that outward to people around her. Then potentially build her as AP so she could fight solo if you wanted (unlike Nami... I love Nami as support, but regardless of how you build her, she can't stand alone)

...you know, I'm remembering that support character Zevran right about now... :C

man, seeing the syndra progress is fantastic. She is easily one of my favourite characters to play. I'm not very good at much besides support, but there is something about the way Syndra plays that I always just loved. She's fantastic and I love everything about her. I might even spend some real money for once and get her alternate skin. Seeing the progress is fantastic. Thank you

These could possibly be sued for future reference when applying new skins.
It also looks awesome

Clearly you've got freedom to work on the visual design; how much influence did you have with the story and character concept? Or is that handled by Riot's creative exclusively? I ask 'cause I've always had an affinity for gravity spells and Syndra being a gravity mage just meshed so well with my own preference. Syn an' Nami are my favs!

Thanks! for the most part, the creative design team comes up with the background story for the champion. But sometimes, artist can inspire the writers and vice versa.

concepts are always better than the finished design.

A & C = Irelia
G = Ice Queen Jenna
L = Judgement Kayle
N = Frost Blade Irelia.
Hahhaha that's what they look like to me. But I love it! I wish there were more diverse skins for Syndra,.

Dont agree with you at all on the 'look-a-like's' Maybe kayle, but apart from that... no not really...
