Jet from atla is so funny bc like, he's fighting zuko and taunting him being like "bet you wanna use some fire instead of those swords, dont u fireboy" which is a funny thing to say to a guy who is clearly very eager to fight using swords

Turtle Ducks ^^ Took my time to create a more detailed piece in the last couple of days! I recently rewatched Avatar and really enjoyed all the scenes where Zuko and Iroh were featured! It made me so nostalgic, so I decided to paint this as an homage to these awesome characters! Hope you like it :)

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND RELATIONSHIP DEVELOPMENT

This relationship is so important to me, there are so many things to say about Aang and Sokka

🌊🔥

Friendly reminder that when Appa was kidnapped, Toph understood Aang and thought his feelings were valid and she wasn't mad with him

Toph in the same book: "His friend was taken, i would be mad too"

These kids are more mature and empathetic than many people in the fandom

I got an A on my ATLA Report

earthly attachments 🌊🪨🔥🌬️

due to popular demand i added kavik!!

(edit: omg tumblr RUINED the quality so i added the solo portraits 😭)

Iroh retains his crown for round 7, and a flame-haired warlock elementary teacher makes her debut!

Share for wider audience ⚡

Liz is definitely her patron

this happened... trust

AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER

1.18 — The Waterbending Master // 3.14 — The Boiling Rock, Part 1

something about doomed toxic yuri

Toph helped a little I guess

i’m in LOVE

its been ages since i’ve spent most of my time drawing, i literally finished my Zuko’s drawings yesterday and i just started and finished the digital one TODAY

anyways

here’s the speed paint

its took 6 hours 9 minutes and 28 seconds 🧍

(i also changed my signature :D! i made it like a stamp, i really like it)

there is a serious lack of discussion about how mai is zuko’s safe space. we see this in their first appearance together (that’s not a flashback). when mai asks him a simple question, “aren’t you cold?” and zuko, who has a hard time opening up and expressing emotions that aren’t anger or angst, freely and openly starts to tell her his worries about going back to the fire nation. and while people love to chastise mai on her reply, “I just asked if you were cold, I didn’t ask for your whole life story”, I think they misunderstand her approach to this. zuko is worrying and overthinking about something he cannot change, something that will only drive him crazy and she tries to distract him with a joke. and it might fall flat, but she realises this and suddenly she is comforting him with her touch. her hand reaching out so casually towards scar like it’s not a big deal, because it’s not. they’ve known each other for a long time, they’ve grown up together and their relationship was a long time coming. and zuko leans into her hand, and her kiss, without thinking twice about it. because mai is familiar, and mai is comfort and that can be seen when you contrast it to song’s attempting at touch his scar, and how quickly he was to stop her. but it’s not only this moment that showcases mai as his safe space, but also when he’s back in the fire nation. when he’s stressed out and going through a tumultuous time, not knowing what’s right and wrong or what he should do next, it’s mai he goes to. we see this in “nightmares and daydreams” when he spends all day at her house, when he can’t stand being in the palace anymore, mai and her house and her bedroom is his safe space. and here we see her trying to comfort him, trying to say the war meeting is stupid, it would be be boring anyway, and shall we go for a ride around town? it’ll be fun… and even though he’s still sad, he goes back to her house on the day of the war meeting and she’s making him tea. and even when he does get invited to the all day war meeting, she goes to the palace with him and waits for him all day, to see if it went well and to comfort him if it didn’t. when he says that it was everything he thought wanted it to be, she’s immediately happy for him, reaching out to touch him with a smile on her face. mai is who zuko feels safe and comfortable around, even in his vulnerable moments and it’s something we should talk about.

Here's kataang art dump. Reprise.

P.S. don't ask me why I handed Katara what looks suspiciously like an electric trimmer.
