Description Two hours of colouring later. Added a little fur tuft at the front of her skirt/wrap thingie.

Trying to draw more lately, and am pretty psyched about the new Avatar series, known as "Avatar: The Legend of Korra"

Reference images are pretty much nonexistent in the public eye, so my only 2 references were the one promo concept art of Korra from behind [link] and a little scrappy doodle from Nickelodeon [link]

I kind of just made up what I think her outfit will look like, so I'm preparing myself to redo this at some point. T_T

I also made up this bending move from what I remembered of the series.... it may be way off.

Lineart is here

|EDIT| Changed the clasp on her shirt to something more waterbender-y.

I honestly really am curious..... I just doodled this up, so if I'm channelling an anime that exists, it would rock to see it!

I like how you designed her. It's pretty good for having barely anything to work with.
I cannot wait for this!

Thanks! I based her off of Katara, but tried to make her look more "grown-up". Ehhh, she still looks younger than I wanted, but oh well.

I am too excited for this show!!!! Steampunk Waterbender!? YAAAAAY

I think she looks pretty good. I like the way you designed her.
And yes, a Steampunk Avatar show is pretty darn amazing.

She looks pretty cool. I like all the colours you chose for her and her hairstyle. I really love the colours you chose for the iceburgs too.

The promo of the art though, the references from Nickelodeon, makes me think Korra is male, but I am routing for Korra to be female, that would be interesting. Do you know when the new series might come out?

Yeah, Korra is a girl, she's just really... well muscled.
Here's a cool article about the new series explaining why they made her a girl.
Careful of mild spoilers!
