Fanart: Katara (yes, even more Avatar TLA)

THIS SHOW HAS EATEN MY BRAIN.

Portrait of Katara from Avatar the last airbender

Having encountered racebending first, and also just being prone to that sort of thing I spent the show imagining what the characters would "really" look like(*), and I had most trouble reconciling Katara and Sokka's appearance with the features I associate with Inuit people.

I decided to have a go at drawing one or both of them, and googling found me this casting discussion at racebending and from there I found Leah Angutimarik, who had the quality of youthful..somethingness I was looking for.

This boy was the closest I found for Sokka, but I didn't end up looking very hard.

(*)also the zany mixed up animals :) Of course my style is still a long way from true realism.
