Very nice! It has a painter-y feel to it. Your colors are very vibrant. I like Sokka's facial expression of not being quite ready to admit, they're lost, or something like that.

You can fangirl away, that's what this place is for. (Go on, I dare ya!);D

Thank you so much! Haha, I'm glad his facial expression says what he's thinking. And... well, the truth is (shhhh, this might wound his pride).. I don't think I can fangirl over Sokka for 10 pages. But that doesn't mean I don't love him! ;)

That's so pretty! Great job! I love his expression. XD

[bobangeba]

Thanks! I'm glad you like it! :D

I really love the style, it does look like a traditional painting, and they look very dignified.

[bobangeba]

Yay! Dignified! Sokka would be happy to hear that. :) Thank you very much!

I love your style! It feels like an oil painting!

What kind of brush and settings did you use?

(ps. I just added you on DA)

[bobangeba]

Thanks! I used this brush called "watercolor loaded wet flat tip," which I've seen a lot of other digital artists use. Uncheck the shape dynamics option, set the other dynamics tab to pen pressure, and you can layer the strokes for a thick painterly effect. For finer lines, I just recheck the shape dynamics option.

I hope that helps!

Oh, really pretty! Their faces are beautiful, and then little Appa in the sky. <3 Sokka looks like he's crossing the Potomac. :D

I think Sokka's pose was somewhat inspired by those paintings of historical figures crossing famous rivers, which is probably why he looks that way to you. Hehehe. I'm glad you liked this! Thank you so much!
