probably not going to finish this because capturing reflective gems in pencil is beyond me at the moment, but I had this idea of the pattern the gems are laid in being like tongues of flame

I think an important sub-question is whether you wear shoes indoors because I imagine that's a significant factor in whether sock-shoe-sock-shoe is even viable because I too wear my socks long before I even look at my shoes

I’m having a spirited debate and need a larger sample size

[scoobydoozombieisland1998]

[undyinglantern]

the flame tattoo on her thigh to match the flame pattern on her sleeves really does a lot to bring this design together and keep it from being boring imo

Sokka

[ image description: digital drawing of Sokka from Avatar: the Last Airbender in my style. He is a dark-skinned man walking towards the camera but looking to the right/his left. He has blue eyes and his head is mostly shaved, with the top portion long and tied back into a ponytail. He is wearing a blue changshan with silver frog closures, silver moons on the collar and silver lion embroidery on his shoulders. He is wearing pale blue trousers and blue shoes with silver embroidery, and holding his space sword behind him. He is standing in front of a brown Water Tribe symbol ]

Continuing to repost older art, I have just decided that I am going to inflict upon you this entire project because it's cool as balls :) once again, the original influences and cultural exploration is under the cut (and once again noting that there is just so much nuance missing from these, since it's impossible to condense thousands of years and miles worth of culture into a few Instagram slides):

A Bit of Background:

The Water Tribes' culture is based primarily on those of Arctic and Siberian peoples. The Northern Tribe has more influence from Siberian peoples (for example, the Yakut, the Buryat, and the Evenk), while the Southern Tribe has more influence from Arctic peoples (such as the Inuit, the Sireniki, and the Yupik). Since the Southern Tribe was founded by ancient immigrants from the Northern Tribe, this reflects the real world relationship between Arctic and Siberian peoples. However, the Water Tribes also draw from other Indigenous peoples, such as Native American, Aboriginal Australian, and Polynesian cultures. And, like all cultures in the ATLA world, the Water Tribes also have extensive Chinese influence.

Some examples include: the igloos used by the Southern Tribe, which resemble those used by the Inuit; the Water Tribes' reliance on hunting and fishing, similar to the Inuit; Water Tribe warriors wear face paint into battle, a practice associated with Native Americans, as well as African and Southeast Asian tribes; Water Tribe boats are based on Polynesian catamarans; Water Tribe boomerangs are based on the “returning boomerangs” used by Aboriginal Australian tribes.

Standard Water Tribe Clothing:

Water Tribe clothing typically resembles the clothing of Arctic peoples. For example, the large, pullover coats are drawn from Inuit anoraks (also called parkas, although they are strictly speaking not the same). Anoraks are typically made from reindeer or seal skin and lined with fur.

Water Tribe shoes are influenced by the mukluks worn by Arctic peoples. These shoes are also made from reindeer or seal skin and are often worn with an inner liner and protective overshoe.

‘Hair loopies’ are also based on an Inuit hairstyle. While braided hairstyles are found in cultures all over the world, ‘hair loopies’ are based on a uniquely Canadian Inuit hairstyle and are called qilliqti in Inuktitut.

My Design:

Katara's warm-weather clothes are inspired by the Chinese cheongsam (Cantonese: 長衫; literally 'long shirt/dress'). It is typically a long, form-fitting, one-piece garment with a standing (mandarin) collar, an asymmetrical, left-over-right closure (右衽; youren), two side slits, and Chinese frog closures (盤扣; pankou).

However, Sokka's warm-weather clothing doesn't have a similar parallel, or even a less-clear influence. For this reason, I decided to draw Sokka in the closest male equivalent to the cheongsam, the changshan (Mandarin: 長衫; literally 'long shirt').

I embellished Sokka's changshan with embroidery of lions, which are a symbol of military prowess in Chinese culture — perfect for Sokka's smart strategies, don't you think? His shoes also have irises on them, which can represent insight, communication and conviction. Finally, I added two crescent moons on his collar because, while his sister of course has a connection to the moon, I also believe Sokka has one as well through Yue

Louis Vuitton by Nicolas Ghesquière Spring 2024

Hello, I’ve always been impressed by your design decisions so I wanted to ask: are there any Pokemon or trainers that have really spoken to you design-wise? Not necessarily your favorite, but left a strong impression on you.

Hope the rest of your day goes well! ^^

Aw thanks so much! I love character design, it was my first passion before storyboarding actually

Here's my faves:

RYME!!!! They nailed that older gen rapper look. Backwards cap, sequins, lots of gold and a puffy jacket! Also I'm not quite sure this is the intention with her shoes but they kinda look like grillz which is sick. I'm a sucker for a limited palette so the black, gold with turquoise accents in her nails, mic, earrings and eyes spoke to me. Also OF COURSE her hair (you're gonna se this pattern for the next two LOL). Making her locks look like a skeleton??? Genius. I love the hand bone for the front and the hip bone for the back. Literally one of the coolest trainer designs pokemon's ever given us.

GRANT! Just an immediately readable design. Oh, he looks like a rock climber, must be a rock type gym leader. Simple fit, I love a sleek black top. The carabiner, climber straps and chalk holder add a little more complexity to the design but not too much. It's a smart choice with how wild his hair is. I feel like if you do too much in the fit AND the hair, you risk your design feeling overdesigned and busy. I love that his hair is meant to look like a rock/cliffs with the holds! The holds add a nice dash of color without being too much.

AMARYS <3 It's the fact that she's in uniform but still has a design that immediately caught my eye. But to her being in uniform, I find it really cool that the other Elite 4 members really alter theirs or have accessories that make the uniforms feel like their own or really different but Amarys doesn't really. It goes to show how rigid she is and gives you the impression that she's a very "follow the rules" kind of person. Her main accessory seems to be her boots which just LOOK heavy, and sleek and look like they have bolts in them. It really makes her design feel bottom heavy and grounded which I feel is appropriate for a steel type trainer. Now, hair. Look at her hair. SO GOOD. I loveeee that pokemon is utilizing black hairstyles like this. Her hair being screws that kinda resemble banto knots is so CUTE. The could have left her hair at that but the braid across her forehead adds a nice asymmetrical aspect to her design. It's so cool that it mirrors her pocketwatch chain, creating a focal point on the school crest. And lastly her glasses! Super cute, I think it's cool that it gives the illusion of bottom lashes which makes her eyes feel a little more droopy or sad than they really are. It just really brings her facial features all together and helps sell her personality.

You seem to have a fun style and like I'm just curious what you wear averagely? normally? (English is my first language but it can't stop me from not knowing how to properly use it)

i feel like the best word to summarise my style would be "chunky". i like big, heavy, tactile clothing, shoes, and accessories. platform boots, large t-shirts, long skirts, baggy pants, and heavy jewellery. even my eyeliner is very thick, and my eyeshadow heavily pigmented. i prefer thick fabrics and layers. my typical outfit is usually some kind of t-shirt + long sleeve shirt combo, a long skirt cinched at the waist with a belt, leggings or fishnets, combat boots, a jacket (usually either my leather bomber jacket or my red and black split dyed denim jacket) and several layered necklaces and mismatched earrings and rings.

i mostly wear black as a base colour with primary colours as accents (usually red, but i have some blue, green, and yellow in my wardrobe as well). i wear almost exclusively silver jewellery. i tend to gravitate towards clothes that feature a particular motif (angels, scorpions, tarot cards, pylons, solar eclipses, dragons, blasphemous use of religious iconography, death and morbidity, stars) and enjoy mixing and matching my outfits and accessories to create an asymmetrical effect. i sometimes wear statement accessories like my halo crown or horns. a lot of people have described my style as "attention seeking", though that's not my main intention. i genuinely like what i wear and prefer to dress according to my personal gratification instead of following trends.

i like leather, metal, and denim. i dislike florals, sportswear, and name branded clothing (i personally find the idea of paying a company to advertise them with what i put on my body distasteful).

i know you didn't ask, but if you're curious where i source my outfits from, i mostly get my clothes secondhand from thrifting (most of my best finds are usually online on resale sites like depop, vinted, etc.) and occasionally from custom sellers. i've also gotten some good stuff from a friend whose father passed away recently who was very into leather fetishwear as well as alternative styles (got a couple of pairs of tripp pants from him). i almost never buy from high street stores or even mainstream online shopping retailers because i just don't like wearing the same thing as everyone else, and find mass production wasteful and typically unethically made and of poor quality. i'd like to get into customising my clothes and designing my own t-shirts and jewellery, but i already have a lot of creative hobbies and limited free time.

Jason Todd wouldn't care if you have blemishes or pimples, he'd still kiss your cheek and forehead. He wouldn't care if your body or face was asymmetrical, he'd still stare at you lovingly. Or if your boobs were saggy or different sizes, he'd still want a peek. He wouldn't care how big your shoe size is or if you've shaved/waxed at all. He wouldn't care if your hands were boney or chubby, he'd just like to hold them. Whether your stomach was flat or pudgy he'd still wrap his arm around your waist with a squeeze and kiss your hair all the same. Double chin, rolls, stretch marks, scars, anything, he loves it all the same. If you have smile lines Jason would make you laugh just to see them, or he'd make a silly face just to see you do one back so he can see those little lines between your eyebrows appear. He wants to hear you giggle, he wants to see you be yourself, and he wants to be there to experience you in all your moments. You're human, he's human, being human comes with wrinkles and lines and blemishes and perceived flaws in yourself but also love and acceptance from those who love you, and Jason Todd loves you endlessly.

(sometimes we all need to be reminded this but love doesn't only happen to one specific shape or image, and anyone who really loves you loves everything about you)

Hmmmmmm

Colours are all the same but the hands are flipped like on the poster...

Pomni's hands and hat are the wrong colours on the poster rip

Pomni's right hand is blue on the poster but red in the show

And her left hand is red on the poster but blue in the show

The colour of the hat's stripes are also flipped

It's not a case of the artwork being flipped and then the text was added after, since the rest of Pomni's clothes are correct and the other characters are also correct and not flipped
