Description
Various notes, collected and done over a few days, from different scraps of paper put into one sheet.Basically, observations of constructions guidelines, trying to work out how these characters work. These are my observations, and should NOT be taken as official notes for these characters.
Plus, a few extra notes for people watching this, to think about volumes, proportions, perspective when drawing. I didn't clean these sketches much, wanting to show most of the rough lines underneath to show structure.
Plus a little doodle added in the bottom left corner. How I would love to tell Iroh's story (if I knew what it was).
Col erase (blue and Tuscan red), plus HB pencils.
Except for Thutmoses up there on the right (mine!), all the other characters belong to Mike, Brian, Nickelodeon, Viacom. If I forgot someone, let me know and I'll add you up.

Eh, sorry, can't post anything about the current project. I'd get tortured, flayed and then fired
Thanks, glad you liked

Yes, they give you the long, slow torment, and THEN deliver the big, bad, crucifixion-esque blow....XD
Me did like.
What is your icon, anyway? I used to think that it was a cartoon form of you, but then you put up those drawings like Earthquake protection and the Ark thingummy....I MIGHT have asked you this before, but....

I really like that doodle of Iroh. He... looks so different...but so much the same.
His armour looks so amazing

My favorites are Momo and Iroh (hey, they rhyme!).
~*KA*~
You rock hard.

Aha, you spotted Momo! He kinda sneaked in in there. Sneaky lemur.

Wow, how useful! I'm too lazy to go through all that.

You might one day do something similar with your own characters. It's great to keep notes for reference.

Iroh's general getup is cool, great job on everyone. However I disagree on Sokka, he's not a rectangle! He's a real human (cartoon) boy!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He may be a real cartoon boy, but he might have a rectangle in his ancestry

It's always cool to see the details of character construction like this. Nice presentation.

Thank you for posting this! Construction notes like this, especially when comparing the characters faces, are so useful

Glad you like, hope it can be useful.

wow you draw similar to how bryan & mike/the animators draw. That's really amazing! Keep up the good work :]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mike, Brian and the animators collectively kick my butt when it comes to drawing. But thank you very much, that is very kind of you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well I think you draw similar to them, so major props *then steals your talent* XD

By the way, I'm picking up some minor tips on this deviation, thanks.

On the far right top corner, it looks like a foreign character...who is that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That is one of my own character that butted in. Just as a little exercise in comparing bald head shapes.

These actually look like real notes the drawers would use, lol, and Toph's pose looks the best on the 1st one.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, nice! It's always good to make little footnotes for yourself every once in a while. These are very helpful as well
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have to keep little footnotes. If only for a character to stay the same for the duration of one story. Same for objects and props.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same here.. >.< If you don't remember certain details, things end up looking different than how they should. I have the same footnote habit with characters and colors.

I know that these can't be taken seriously as official character notes but...
I can't help but notice, their hair seems...different. Is this what's going to happen to their precious hair? Or is it awesome doodle designs by youself?
And the Iroh sketch is so epic! Much
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If you are talking about the heads on the side, these were done just for general head shape comparisons- it shows nothing of possible new hairdos.

*head slap* Of course, please forgive my stupidity.

Awesome sketches. They're so very good. What is this your talking about though "Col erase (blue and Tuscan red)" ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Col Erase is a type of colored pencils, much favored by people working in animation. Comes in many colors, and can be erased rather easily, compared to regular color pencils.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, cool. I'm no good at coloring, and I erase a lotT_T.

everyone looks great! my favorite is the sad little aang at the bottom! except i think sokka looks.. well.. strange.. i don't really know how to explain it but i guess he's better looking on the show.. XD I HAVE AN OVAL HEAD!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I still have much practice to do on Sokka to make him look good. I'll get him right one day (takes out blank paper and practices)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i'm sure you'll get it one day!

wow! I really like it! you are very good at them!
