h'lo h'lo! i'm saltygirl, & i'm new here, so if i post this in the wrong place, just let me know & please don't bite my head off. well this is an avatar sketchy i did for a traveling sketch book project started by 'banishedprince' from deviantart.com. the idea behind the project was to have the book go from artist to artist all around the country (& even the world, if it was the international book) so every1 could draw a lil sketch showing their avatar love & also show something about where they lived. since i'm from memphis, i could've drawn sokka eating a trough full of bbq, or have appa & the gaang fly over the mississippi river. but i decided on aang elvis instead. more avatar fanartz to follow.

Lol, very nice drawing. I like the way you incorporated his costume into the theme as well as just your style in general.

awww karma on my 1st post! thank you. i tried to make aang more recognizable by letting his blue arrow tat peak from under the elvis wig & encorporating the air element symbol on his cape jewelry. i know aang's not 1 for worldly possessions, so all the gawdy blingbling will clash w/ his personality. but it's funny because it's NOT how he is, kind of like in the swordmaster ep. where he tried on that tacky super-duper samurai-esque armor. i was originally going to do a momo elvis, but i'm not too great @ drawing creatures.

HAHAHA Not only is it cute, it's funny. Could you give the link to the project on DA? It sounds really interesting. sure thing. the link is banishedprince.deviantart.com/journal/17045835/ .banishedprince, the person who started the project, does some wonderful digital fanart paintings. she lives in france i think. i don't think there's room for any1 else to contribute @ the moment, but it can't hurt to ask. i thought i was late in joining in & she somehow found room for my aang elvis. she hopes the book will make its way to san diego comicon near the end of july. my husband & i will be there selling our wares & we hope to meet some fellow avatar fans who helped w/ the project. & i personally am hoping i will get some free time this yr away from our table to attend an avatar panel w/ the creators & actors, if there's gonna be 1 @ all. *crosses fingers*
