League of Legends Fan Art Project: Aori (Part 1)

This is a League of Legends fan art project that I have been working on during my free time. I revised the design several times and ultimately settled on this version. As you can see, this is still an ongoing project as I have still not designed her ultimate ability (R), where she will transform into another form, and that will be shown at Part 2 of this project, with its own set of character sheet, etc.
I have always wanted to design a character from Ionia, especially a Vastaya that is inspired by the East Asian Zodiac. As a twist for this project, she wields a dual blade Darkin weapon, which she has to guard that weapon from falling into other people's hands. However, in her ultimate form/ability, she will briefly succumb to the weapon's control, and she will fight back against the Darkin weapon to control her body again.
This is a bigger project than I anticipated, but I am glad that I persevered and completed Part 1 of this project. With some feedback from industry professionals, I have learned a lot through this project.
