[Art] Avatar -- Sokka/Zuko b/w line art (very ghey)

Okay! So, umh, I love Avatar with mouth and uh, have been corrupted by [livejournal.com profile] bottle_of_shine into YET ANOTHER mildly violent, snarky, grumpy, and completely unpopular pairing. And wonder of wondres, I decided to like actual art for it. Not a doodle! This should illustrate yo you how much I adore this pairing.

Title: None yet? I dunno I'm sick right now, don't ask me to be creative -_-;;
Pairing: Sokka/Zuko. HOYES.
Rating: PG-13? There is kissing and shirtlessness >.>
Spoilers: For Zuko's appearance in Book 2, I guess?

Or, for the full version here, with description ganked from DA because I'm le tired...






So, I kind of like this I guess? I like it enough to colour it, definitely! I'll spend time on that, too, none of this crappy five minute stuff.

I like how clean the pencil lines around their faces are, but I'm really amused by how their heads are cartoon style while their hands are more realistic. Stylystic inconsistencies for the win! XD I just kept screwing up the hands really badly, and by the time I got them in the positions I wanted them I'd slipped into a different style -_-;;

I think my kissing (or near-kissing) is improving!

Also, I drew Zuko from his scar side quite deliberately, because his scar doesn't get enough love -- I'm not saying it's attractive (to me, your mileage may vary), but his scar is a really important part of him, so I think it's a little silly when artists try to avoid it or cover it up or remove it.

I like the curves of all three shoulders, the jawlines, Sokka's expression, and the transition from neck to shoulder on Zuko's right (our left). I really dislike the fabric and someday need to learn to draw it properly -_-

When I colour it I want to emphasize the way that Zuko's fingers are digging into Sokka's arm and the line of Sokka's side and stomach, cause it's a little easy to miss here and if you miss it he looks really unnaturally skinny.

Anyway. I'm getting sick, I should stop talking before I lose track of what I'm saying even more XD
