Description
I'm guessing you've seen 's work. He is AMAZING, and the inspiration for this drawing ^_^He uses picture reference to draw different anime characters, and I believe at first he traced the pictures. So I thought I should try his technique. It's WAY harder than it looks lol but so much fun!
So, here is Zuko, I traced him from some Dante Basco's photo I found in google. Then pretty much blindly airbrushed him, cropped the drawing, did some seriour bluring and added texture.
I might do Katara next =3

Hmmmm... You are truely amazing, yet I want to be honest with you. His face structure just isn't zuko. His nose is a bit big, and his lips are too wide. Good job on the painting, it just isn't zuko. Sorry

Granted, Dante Basco won't be the perfect Zuko for everybody but it's how I see him ^_^

Holy hell o_O
The lips and hair are awesome. The clarity up front with the blurred background makes it almost...photo-like.
