kytara:comradekatara:the hatchet men charged from all directions. kyoshi drew one of her fans. two would have been a bit much. i wanted to draw the first scene from the shadow of kyoshi because i think the contrast between how she is perceived as a terrifying threat versus her actual consideration for how her power has the ability to harm others as described in this chapter does such a good job of characterizing her and how she feels about her role as avatar. she is fully aware of her own strength, but takes no pride in it, seeing herself as simply someone who does what needs to be done. (fyi, none of that blood is hers, other than the cut along her neck, that is.) (ID: A digital drawing of Kyoshi over a dark grey background with light shining on her face from above. She is shown in profile, regarding the viewer with a solemn and reflective expression, holding out her right arm with a gold fan held in her hand. She is wearing a green sleeveless tunic with dark green trim over a loose long-sleeved green tunic. She has light brown skin, and has her traditional makeup, white face paint with bright red lipstick and eyeshadow with black eyeliner. Her eyes are dark brown, and her long brown hair is clasped at the nape of her neck with a gold ornament. She has on a gold arch headdress split into two, held on with a green band. Two gold strands with tassels frame her face. The fan has a green stripe on the center, and she has dark green gloves. She has a long cut along her neck, and her outfit is spattered with blood as if she is in a fight. /End ID) -- source link
