Summary: Avatar Fanart Series, by blue-ten.
Review: I chose this series because of both the art quality and the it’s content: I love Avatar and for me artists choices really capture what the show is all about. This is a series of five pieces, each one showcasing one of Avatar’s protagonists: Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph and Zuko. Each piece tells of aspects of each characters personality and how they are portrayed of cannon.
Aang, Katara, Sokka and Zuko’s pieces are pretty straight forward. Aang is the duality between his playful self and the Avatar, the background with the representation of each bending color and traits is amazingly detailed. Sokka follows this same guide, playful and warrior, his face painting is one of the best things here and in the show.
Katara’s piece is less detailed, but equally good. She is seen in her Fire tribe disguise, which is a favorite of mine - she looks older and more womanly, and twice as deadly in this arc. She is also shown with both her abilities as a bender, water and blood bending. I don’t like Zuko’s piece as much, probably because I would love to have seen other sides of him, no pun intended.
And then there is Toph, the last and the best! I love the angles and how we see front and back of Toph. At first I saw Toph in her smirkful glory and then I went back to look at her as the proper daughter and lady of court. This pic reminded me why I love Toph so much and how complex her character is - which is great, because she can be seen by some people as a mere comic relief by Sokka’s side. I adore the shading and the way the light is set, the cool and neutral colors just make the whole art stand out.
Do check the artist’s other Avatar works, they are really good too.
