Hi everyone! My name is Jonas Yoon and I am concept artist graduating from Otis College of Art and Design in May 2020 with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Digital Media, specializing in Game & Entertainment Design.
In addition to my academic background, my professional career consists of designing for game companies such as Riot Games and Section Studios. I am experienced with strong understandings of anatomy, perspective, and composition, with my primary expertise geared towards designing videogame characters. I am constantly striving to push myself further and to become known within this industry. I would like to share my experiences and creativity with the rest of the world.

League of Legends - Master Yi Redesign
My take on a redesign for one of League of Legend's more outdated champions, Master Yi. This character comes from a region known as Ionia which is heavily influenced by asian culture, while incorporating many organic and elegant elements. Master Yi's original design felt clunky and mechanical which strongly clashed with the current lore which ultimately lead me to redesign this champion. I included form fitting and elegant armor to mesh well with Ionian culture.
