NOTE: Please click the image for larger version!!!This is promotional fanart for my fanfiction The Blind Bandit: Gespenst Jäger. The link is distanthorizons.proboards31.com/index.cgi?board=fic&action=display&thread=1173050316 and it is rated R. Overall, I'm not too happy with this one when compared to my Azula pic. I had initially brainstormed about doing a Blind Bandit and Toph in the same picture in various poses to show their separation, but I decided to stick with something simple in the end. Note that the huge blank space to the bottom right of the picture should have her shadow cast on it, but I don't know how to do shadows right now. Overall, it doesn't really feel like Toph too much. I don't know. It just doesn't have the same effect as my Azula one. The larger version ( click the image to see the larger version) does look a bit better than the small one. Nonetheless, it is complete. If anyone wishes to point out any errors, please do so. Oh and, read my fic.

It looks a little too tall to be Toph. Also, there appear to be some lines missing around her torso. And that hat... well...

ArrowedAvatar: I can draw and write, but I do neither on a professional level. It's one of the things I dislike about myself...capable of doing many things but being unable to specialize in any one of them. I'm just above average in multiple areas. I'm glad you like the hat! AmbrMerlinus: Toph actually varies her height throughout the series. She's much taller when in her nightgown in the Blind Bandit, but much shorter when she dons her Blind Bandit Outfit. I picked the taller version. I cannot believe I missed the torso line thing while inking. I will edit that in later tonight. Thanks for the catch! And you don't like the Uber-hat? lilWaterbender: Terra team uniforms looks so much better than Dai Li uniforms. --- Thanks for the comments!

Since you asked for a crit... I'm completely confused by that lantern (I skimmed the begining of your fic... but it does look like a lantern) I'm just wondering how Toph's holding it. It looks like there's a handle on the side, but her knuckles are going over that opening's lip (not sure what it's called) giving a very strange and almost surreal look the that portion of the pic.
Also, the lines of the obi-like middle section of the uniform? They are curving up into the lantern rather then meeting it perpendicular. That also looks very strange and makes it look like the outfit is laying crooked on the body.

DisplayName:
It's understandable. The clothing just covers so much...
Aquarelle:
Yay some more crit!
The lantern is hanging from her belt. She's supposed to be holding the switch with her hand, but like you pointed out, it looks sort of messed up. I'm going to go back and add some more lines to make it clearer.
I'm not sure what you mean by obi-like middle section. Could you please elaborate?

Thanks a lot for the comments everyone!

Yeah, now that I look, I'm pretty sure you're missing a section of a line right under the left arm, in-between the lantern and her armpit.
*giggle* That's a funny word! Armpit! Heehee!
