Description I had a bit of a tough time getting this one finished for some reason. I had wanted to do it for a while, but once I actually sat down and started working on it, it just didn't want to come together. But, I'm pleased with the end product. I think all the time spent just staring at it and futzing with the details gave me the time I needed to refine it.
I imagine this is when Zuko and Katara first realize their feelings for each other. Neither one of them has really wanted to admit it, but after getting each other out of some tough scrape, they realize they don't want to live without each other.

Update:
wrote a lovely piece inspired by this pic. You can find it here : [link]

I do now. I used to draw them out by hand with a mechanical pencil and then scan them in and colour them in photoshop, but now I do everything in it. ^^

yay!!!!! I love your work! Okay, so I have my own Avatar ff I did on ff.net, and I did a story poster of it on dA, called "TSWA request for Lozeldamaster" on my page. Anyway, I made an oc character the main character, Ara, aang and katara's daughter, who's both a water and airbender. she's 15 years old, has the arrows of her father, and looks like both parents, well, I'll let you see the piece. Anywho, I'd love to see you do her in real avatar version, because you seem to do it really well! But can I get a scene of my story? Actually, if you want, you can read the ff, at [link] and you can pick the scene, but you're so good, I just wanted to know if you could do that for me. Or if it's just her in a pose, that's completely fine as well! If you can't, I completely understand! thanks!

Oo, sounds like a fun character to draw. I'm not sure I understand what style you want it in, though...do you want me to do photo realism like "Surrender" or do you want something like this that's in the style of the show? I'll definitely read your story and try and get a scene together for you.

Avatarone3 In reply to Abayomi [2009-02-02 04:08:09 +0000 UTC]

the style of the show, definitely! And thanks so much! I'm so glad you can do this for me! And I'll make the ff for your piece the best I can!!!

Sorry it kinda turned into an art trade... I just really love your work, and was looking for a person who could make it almost looking like the show...
And did you pick a scene? just asking...
I told you the link of her on dA, right?
thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!

Sweet peace.

Zuko has too mush hair, but their embrace is cute. And you really did Katara good. I like the look of it, it's like "An instant before the kiss". Katara is already expecting it and thinking "Stop pondering and kiss me, you firenbending idiot!"

fun

I'm glad you like it!
Zuko always gives me trouble, and I have no idea why. I definitely futzed the most with him before deciding it was finished.

Thank you! I've been struggling a bit in the past week or so, but I think that if I just take a bit more time then I can do more pieces like this. ^^ Thank you for your very kind words!
