Azula Fanart

[SelfPossessed]

Note: The following is promotional fanart for my fanfiction. The link is distanthorizons.proboards31.com/index.cgi?board=fic&action=display&thread=1173050292

----------------------------



I'm no rufftoon but here's a shot at some Avatar fanart. I drew it in an attempt to regain inspiration for writing my Avatar fanfiction Metamorphosis of the Queen of Insects, which is rated R. You can find it in the fanfiction section of this forums.

I see a few things wrong with it, especially the bottom hand, but feel free to point out any mistakes I made. The chibi-Azula is supposed to be in a see-through "cocoon" of some sorts. Azula's arms aren't shown as I wanted the hands to sort of "fade in" from the surroundings, but it didn't come out the way I wanted it to. I wanted fire to surround the cocoon as well but I can't draw fire for my life.

I have no experience with advanced image editing programs so this is about as good as it'll ever get. If I can figure out how to properly color in paint shop pro I may give it a shot later.

Fear my noob art. Oh and, read my fic. I really need to start on chapter 3 of my fanfiction. Hmm.

This is really well done. I love it.

The chibi Azula is very cute. Overall, very well drawn. ^^

[SelfPossessed]

I'm glad you liked it ttrulytt. Chibi-Azula was actually difficult to draw as it was done in such a tiny space on the paper.

[ttrulytt]

Yeah, I understand what you mean. Limited space can lead to difficulties while drawing. But you pulled it off well. ;]

[Star Flicker]

Wow, that's really good. -Karma- Awesome job. ^^

[AmbrMerlinus]

It looks awesometastic to me. The expression of sadistic control on the big Azula along with the weeping despair of the little Azula is beautiful. My only qualm is with her top hand, how the fingers are kinda lumpy and one half-disappears behind her chin. But that's an easy fix. Great job.

[Jenny Lee]

Wow, it looks really good. Here's a karma!

[SelfPossessed]

Ambr:

The fingers are lumpy because I can't draw fingers; I sort of just tried to get it to sort of look right. Hand mannequins weren't working for me, so I just try to copy my own hand in the respective positions, but it doesn't always work. Some areas of the hand are also way too pointy because this was my first attempt with vectors. I also see what you mean with the hand disappearing. That was unintentional and I tried to use different line thicknesses to convey the difference. Hopefully I will improve in my lineart with time. Thanks for pointing the errors out though!

I'm glad you all liked it! Thanks for the comments!

[Ilise]

Yay! I found it! Ahem.
I have only one small suggestion- maybe shade one side of her nose and/or face- it adds a lot of depth to the picture.
You are going to color this, right?! Please?

[SelfPossessed]

ArrowedAvatar:

I didn't shade as this was supposed to be lineart. Shading typically comes in the coloring process and I wanted to leave that open in case I wanted to revisit this in color.

As to actual coloring, I'm going to hold that off for now. My coloring skills are sub-par and I'm more concerned with writing the actual story at the moment.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
