Associated with the image of ancient pirates, Gangplank is very suitable for the Blood Moon skin theme – a skin line inspired by Japan, a country also linked to the maritime field.
Diogo Yoshikawa – An artist with a strong Japanese classical style, has blended the unique gameplay of Gangplank’s abilities with the mysterious design of the Blood Moon skin line to create a fan-art skin with incredibly impressive unique features.
Combined with the characteristic demon mask, the attire of Blood Moon Gangplank also features traditional accessories that are extremely popular in Japanese feudal culture. Meanwhile, the signature weapon of this champion – the pistol remains unchanged in design, as the skin’s context is explored during the 16th – 17th century, similar to the default design style of Gangplank.
Gangplank’s pistol does not change much from the original, since in reality, Japanese matchlocks are also a type of weapon with Western origins, similar to the default skin.
Unfortunately, the creator of this skin focused too much on the character design and overlooked the design of in-game visual effects. However, the sketches of Blood Moon Gangplank’s design still leave many gamers in awe due to their detailed, impressive, and culturally rich Japanese aesthetic.
