This new skin concept is blowing my mind!
The new ‘K/DA CODE PINK’ skin designs have recently gone viral across multiple social media, with League of Legends fans pleading for an extension of the skin line.
The K/DA and K/DA All Out skins have been among the most popular League of Legends skins introduced during the game’s long history. While it’s nearly impossible to know how many of these skins were sold, the popularity of both skin lines makes it difficult to believe they didn’t make any profits.
However, it’s been years since we’ve seen a new set of skins for the 4 champions: Evelynn, Kai’Sa, Ahri, Akali, and even Seraphine in the popular K-pop skins.
This prompted some League of Legends fans to create a BLACKPINK-inspired skin line known as ‘K/DA CODE: PINK,’ which has gone viral on social media.
League of Legends inspired K/DA CODE PINK skins
A fan-created design for BLACKPINK-inspired K/DA skins has gone popular on social media, leading some fans to believe they were actually official Riot concept art.
3 talented artists, Emriikun, richydraws, and yoomyoom collaborated to produce an immensely gorgeous concept that truly connected with League of Legends fans.
The black and pink appearance not only fits the general K/DA motif from prior skins, but it also makes it extremely simple to pair with the K-pop group who inspired their style.
As if that wasn’t enough, they also created an entire animation depicting each champion’s character.
These were matched with in-game concepts aimed to approximate what these champions’ abilities and models may look like if they were implemented into League of Legends.
Though they aren’t completely animated 3D models, they offer fans and players a good concept of what the end product may look like as an idle in-game model.
Aside from that, this is one of the most large-scale fan efforts for generating League of Legends skin concepts. It remains to be seen whether Riot will continue the K/DA line by developing new music and skins.
