FULL VIEW PLEASE!! OR I KEEL JOO!

You have no idea how long I spent on this, three weeks, because of classes, mid-terms, Project PHUNK, going on vacation, hanging out with friends, sleeping, eating, breathing, gym... GAH!!!

But I am satisfied with the end result. I'm so unoriginal, I stole the title of Avatar Book 2 Earth Episode 220: Crossroads of Destiny 8DDD.

Characters in focus, top to bottom: Katara, Sokka, Aang and Toph
Characters out of focus, top to bottom: Ty Lee, Mai, Azula and Zuko.

I did this for Comic Fiesta, and that I really needed some color Avatar fanwork in my gallery... T_T I'm really obsessed with this show! I can't wait for.......my American friends to record/tape Season 3 for me since it'll be out late here *hint hint* :evillaugh:.

My favorite characters in this picture that I worked on are Toph, Azula and Zuko, don't ask me why. I just like how they came out.

This is also my first time CGing water, fire and lightning. I liked how they turned out, I mean, it's a first try... ^^; I would've loved to make Toph do some awesome Earthbending but I couldn't make rocks come out with the pose she has... :O_o: and no I refused to scrap the pose :love:.

What I like about Toph: everything. She came out just the way I wanted her to.
What I like about Azula: the lightning and fire highlights. She looks real evil too.
What I like about Zuko: His scar and his hair *molests hair*.

What I like about Aang: His eyes and arrow.
What I like about Katara: Her hair, her clothes and the waterbending.
What I like about Sokka: The pose, the shaved part of the head.
What I like about Mai: Her face and hair.
What I like about Ty Lee: Her clothes.

Oh well....I'm really tired after all this, and I have nothing much to say except you can't really see Mai or Ty Lee (and I worked so hard on them) and that I hate Sokka's club and Aang's glider. Oh and I can't draw backgrounds to save my life (believe me I tried, and died).

Here are the details (original size) before I blurred out the Fire Nation gang ----> [link]

Gah UGLY WATERMARK!!!

I owe people art, I will get to it I promise!

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....

Incredible work!!!

I love pretty much everything about this pic......

Thank you for linking to the details!!!

Aang and Azula are incredible, Katara's water rules, Sokka's hair is very nicely done, Toph has a great pose, Mai's got a great pose and hair, Ty Lee looks so happy and flighty, and Zuko's doing his Zuko thing in the corner.

Work well done!

When Toph punches Aang, it's called chemistry; when Mai teases Zuko, it's called insensitivity.

*Instant fave* This definitely cures a bit of my ATLA withdrawal syndrome for season three.

well, i gotta say, this looks sweet, esp the blue flame effect (or lightning, in that episode i really dunno if she is shooting lightning or blue flame, they say blue flames, but later they somehow change their mind.)

sweet job!

zomg, everyone looks so awesome! :faint: andomg you are so good at group pictures!! I say my fave is Sokka. Holy smokes you are so good at drawing side views xDDDD <33 And his eye is definitely stunning *3* Dunno how to say it, but garghh this is so purdy! Toph's hair is so detailed, and also Zuko's! :wow: And the water came out really nice too! Way better than I could do :rofl:

Overall, this will make a great movie poster! :love:
