idk what to tag this so people can avoid it but this is me yelling about hating the cutesy plushies that are 90% of the Avatar animal merch so if you like those please feel free to hit J to skip on desktop; I don't want to yuck your yum I just want to yell for a minute
Man. I really wish that more of the Avatar merch plushies were less... cutesy. Like,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I guess these are kind of cute, but if I'm honest, "cute" doesn't really... work with the ikran design imo. Also they look worse in person than they do in photos, which is truly impressive, usually it's the other way around.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Come on. That barely even looks like a nantang. I had to stop and figure out whether it was supposed to be a nantang, palulukan, or some kind of melanistic pa'li.
Tumblr media
The soulless eyes and human smile are what get me, I think. Like - does this not look worlds better?
Tumblr media
(And it's still got the weird eyes.)
THERE'S ONE GUY THEY ABSOLUTELY HIT THE MARK ON, THOUGH.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he's glorious!!! he looks so good!!! he's simplified without drastically changing his look to be UwU so cute!! why can't we have ALL the animals in this styOH MY GODS THEY MADE A CUTESY VERSION TOO IT JUST MUST NOT HAVE BEEN IN STOCK WHEN I WAS THERE
Tumblr media
WHAT- WHAT THE FUCK. THAT'S CURSED I'M SORRY THAT ONE'S SO CURSED EVERYBODY ELSE GO HOME THE REST OF THEM ARE OKAY BUT AAA
anyway the tsurak plush (NOT YOU) is the only one that got it right and I desperately want more Pandoran animals in THAT style of plush, stop trying to make designs that do not lend themselves to cutesiness well cutesy on principle, or if you're going to (because I know a lot of people do like these and that's fair, that's their business) then please at least make designs that also actually stay faithful to their original designs and vibes, thanks for coming to my TED talk
Also shoutout to the pa'li plush which I think is the only one where I actually like how the cutesy version came out
Tumblr media
look at him. he's perfect. I don't know why he came out so much better, but he did. perfect boy. very sad he was not in the store when i was there or I probably would have bought him.

been playing a lot of Avatar Frontier of Pandora lately and im really enjoy the game. Here is my cat boy, his name translate to "Half Seen". He's vivacious, curious, always ask too many questions and bold. He's interested in human craftmanship, the precision and technologies despite it being frown upon by his own kinds. Thanks to his fast adapting and isn’t afraid to take risks to complete an objective, Half Seen is tough and self-reliant. But he also has a compassionate heart that drives him to help people in anyway he can.

I can't even describe how much and why I love Zeswa clan but I can try to show it visually through my art and it was definitely... an attempt

My wishlist of things I would like to see in the Avatar sequels (in no order and ignoring how unlikely they are):
Na'vi doing chill everyday things like cooking, sharing a meal, playing games, making art, weaving, etc.
more biomes and the Na'vi who live there (arctic, desert)
the Tulkun are people?? Are there any more sentient life forms on Pandora we should know about?
some screentime for minor characters from A1 (Max, Norm, Mo'at)
more Neytiri 🥺
small nod to the early script/the old survival guide and strange creatures like the Medusa or Slinger
new score. No more taking tracks from A1 and sticking them into the sequel. I need new music >:I
more songs sung in/by Na'vi

Ooooo, those are neat! I love the one with the pa’li in the water, that’s a really nice shot.
I have decided, now that I'm out of actual quests to do in Frontiers but neither want to stop playing nor start a new game just yet, that I'm going to start taking nice close-up pictures of all the flora and fauna for the wiki. I'm gonna be a wildlife photographer but for Eywa'eveng. (If anyone wants any specific screenshots feel free to ask, I guess!)

A year ago hyperfixation on Avatar took over me and I made my first ever fanart
Today I finished redrawing it:

Old art:

The amount of effort on both of these pictures is incomparable, the old one was just a sketch, however A LOT has changed and I'm surprised that I feel proud for myself
I have another one for a better comparison so you can see

This was made in pretty much the same time not longer after that sketch and this was truly the best I could do for that time 😭
Btw timelapse! Almost forgot

That's not a bad idea, actually!
Anyway I've now uploaded a bunch of photos to the bone helm rhino, chameleon crawler, whipfang crawler, tetrapteron, and kite manta pages. I have a bunch more pictures of more animals and plants but I am out of patience for the monstrously slow uploading process and I didn't upload any of the plants because I only figured out how to add a gallery halfway through (as opposed to adding images to a preexisting gallery). I'm trying to get shots from multiple angles, ideally with some action shots of the animals, detail shots, and shots during both day and night (because bioluminescence).
