I wanted to let you know I cosplayed as Raava this past weekend and used your fanart as inspiration. I posted it at facebookDOTcom/hakujicosplay Thanks for the inspiration!
Holy snaps... THAT'S AMAZING!! You did an incredible job with your cosplay. I love the color designs you chose, and your hair looks gorgeous! I'm so humbled and stoked that you found Kyonz' and my designs to be an inspiration. Thanks for sharing, this totally made my day!! ~Nashi
Is it okay if you do a full body sketch on your take on raava as a human?? I fell in love with the art you did on her with all her ages but sadly you only did the upper body :
Hello! Good timing for you to ask, as I’m currently concepting out a lineup for Raava at her various ages; I hope doing so will help provide a bit more context for our AU story ideas and design choices. So yes! It is more than OK, it is my pleasure to draw more full body concepts (I only wish I could draw them faster!! Guhhh.)
And I totally get what you’re saying! I love the whole “Soulmates over the span of 10,000 years” bond that Wan and Raava share. The kind of camaraderie that develops from being thrown together on the battlefield to eventually becoming each other’s most trusted companion for ages to come, is just much more substantial than a straightforward romance/attraction plot (for me, at least).
Also, I just saw your comment! Thanks, your enthusiasm is infectious and greatly appreciated! I will be working at it, slowly but surely! ᕙ( ≧□≦ )ᕗ And no worries, there will be more “long loose hair” Raava to come~
Kyonz and I have been keeping busy brainstorming concepts and writing story ideas for the AU. It's been a lot of fun! ...But inevitably it's taking forever too. (So sorry for taking forever to reply to notes... I was hoping to post new art before posting replies again, but getting around to doing so took longer than I'd hoped. Will get to notes soon! ..._〆(≧□≦ ू )°゚°。。 )

countrycapitolquidditchgirl - Woah, that is strange and also awesome. Thanks for letting us know!
eternalhimitsu - Yep, there's two of us (Kyonz and Nashi) posting drawings onto this blog. You can see specifically who drew what via the tags.
frostbite883 - We can't promise to fill all requests, but suggestions are welcome and it's very likely we'd draw any prompts that inspire us!
sirhotbod - Aww, thank you! Yes, we're playing with a bunch of story ideas and hope to get those out in any way we can, even if they're just pieces of rough sketches and blurbs at a time... but yes, a fan comic would be so awesome!! (I know I totally want to read one!!)
grrsadie - AWESOME TO HEAR YOUR DREAMS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED! Though actually we can't really take any credit for that one-- we simply reblogged an awesome post someone else made. But you're welcome anyway, and I love you too. XD
i really like the idea of vaatu taking wans form to taunt him and raava. if i ever try to make something from that idea, ill be sure to credit you in the future
Ooh yes, please do create that! The more fanwork for these episodes the merrier~ and I'd absolutely love to read your interpretation of that concept! ~Nashi
Gd do I love your humanoid raava interpretation. Hope you don't mind if I do fanart of that fanart!
Hi! Yes, please feel more than welcome to do so! I'm glad if these concepts give you any inspiration and would be absolutely stoked to see what you come up with. Cheers! :D ~Nashi

So far in our AU both Raava and Vaatu have the ability to alter their appearance, but Vaatu thinks himself above humans so he doesn’t stoop to the level of creating a definitive humanoid look for himself (not yet, at least!). However, there is one exception— he does occasionally enjoy taking on the form of a twisted Wan, both to taunt Raava and Wan and also to cause chaos in Wan’s form as a way to tarnish their good name.
