Artist's Comments

You're a salty water ocean wave
You knock me down, you kiss my face
I know the storms will always come
But I still love to have you around

Heaven knows what will come next
So emotional, you're so complex
A rollercoaster built to crash
But I still love to have you around

You're the one I want and it's not just phase
You're the one I trust; our love is the real thing

GAH. This took WAAAY too long. Oh well. It was fun.

TAKE THAT, ZUTARA.

I meant to do something with the background, but by the time I got around to it, I really just wanted to call this finished.

Next project in this vein will be Aang actually (1)12 years old for once, prolly with Momo, in his season 1 clothes. I was going to do a Katara piece, but I want to practice drawing younger characters in this style, and Aang just looks more kiddy than her. X3 (and I'd be tempted to draw her older/more adult-themed because I'm in love with her, lulz).

Adobe Photoshop CS1. 25-30 hours, 100+ layers (I'm so full of fail). Avatar is not mine.

Lyrics are Gwen Stefani's "The Real Thing."

nice job! I still haven't watched all of avatar, I saw season one up until ep. 10 or 12 and then stopped for some reason... I'll have to pick it up one of these days.

I think you've done a great job with the anatomy here, most "fanart" style pictures I've seen are.. not quite as attractive as yours. :-P Only thing is,
is there a reason her boob is so... wide?

like I said, awesome job. And I like the background. It makes the figures really pop, and you don't even think about looking at it because it's just perfectly 'there'.

ok i think i'm done sorry for writing a book!! :-)

Watch more Avatar! D: Seriously, things don't get nearly wicked enough until season 3. X3

And thank you for pointing that out; I actually fixed that in another version of this file (I have this saved in five different files...o_o), but apparently I transferred the wrong piece onto the final background. Crap. *pops open Photoshop* XD This is why I shouldn't draw at 3 am.
:iconmisticloudz:
lol I hear you. I do WAY too many things at odd hours of the morning and then am surprised when it doesn't turn out right.. :-P
hey, at least you don't have to go through the work to fix it now though eh? Always nice to have noticed these things yourself first :D

:iconbyakuyawhitenight:
Wow you actually used 100+ layers? I wonder how your comp can handle that x3

That said, the faces and Katara's hand look awesomely realistic, and the details are just woah.

AVATAR <33

I refuse to say something stupid here. So there.

Agatsuma Soubi = :heart: MINE.
:iconnylak:
I have this damned thing saved in five different files, each one with about 20-40 layers each. XD Everytime I saved it to a new file, I'd merge the previous layers and start adding MOAR. My poor computer is contemplating a mutiny right now.

AND AVATAR INDEED. <333
