DevBlog #1 – Sheever’s Venomancer – From Fierce Fire to Ferocious Flora

A Venomancer set commissioned for the English Commentator Jorien “Sheever” van der Heijden. Initially a Lina set was considered in mind the top female Dota 2 Commentator which can be seen at the bottom of the blog, however after careful consideration and many days of back and forth deliberations and feedback we finally decided to go with Venomancer for two main reasons. First, Venomancer was Sheever’s signature hero, and second, Venomancer possessed a dangerous yet elegant and beautiful persona, similar to Sheever. and thus it inspired a deadly and dangerous floral concept made by Agito (RavaFX Lead Concept Artist).

The concept is now currently being sculpted by our Senior Designer Reza. Progress of the work can be seen in the following image.

And here is the initial Lina concept by Agito. A design inspired by Jorien’s fiery style during the International 2014 (TI4).
