Artist's Comments

So one day I was just sitting there and this thought trundles through my brain. It says: wouldn't it be fun to switch the nations of all the main Avatar characters? Since I have nothing better to do with my life, I go along with it. Here we have Zuko as a waterbender, Sokka and Katara being all evil and firey, and Aang, of course, as an earthbender. A few things that wouldn't make sense got switched around: Zuko's scar had to turn into a large weird frostbite thing, for one.

GAH! WHEN IS SEASON TWO STARTING??

Now I've got that out of my system...

You did such an incredible job on the coloring and the clothing textures! The context escapes because of my lack of familiarity with the show, but wow. So preeeeeetty.

(Someone likes their new swords, methinks.)

Squee! Thankees! The coloring did turn out okay, although there are a number of problems and I got kind of sloppy towards the end.

Yeah, Sokka's gone a bit sword-crazy, there...

Heehee, thanks! Everyone seems to be noticing Sokka's crazed-ness. Go him.

I do not see said problems, nor do I notice said sloppiness. And don't you dare try to point any of it out.

Double the swords = twice the fun.

Color! And cel-shading!! The characters look great, and (even though I am not current with the show), I really like the way you've brought your own style into them. Lighting looks really nice and consistent, though perhaps the floor shadows on the dirt would be a little further to the right. Frostbite! There is a lot of really nice style and technique going on here. Good work! :D :+fav:

Wow, thanks! I'm very flattered. :blushes: This is one of my first experiments with solid cel-shading, and I'm still trying to figure out the best way to do it in Photoshop. Experimenting was fun!

Thanks so much! It was really fun to switch them all around. Aang with hair... Psychedelic, man.
