She would enjoy roughing up those that tried to resist arrest, wouldn't she?

I love the realism in the pic.

I was SO hoping you'd resist arrest, buddy. Now I don't feel the least bit
guilty bending your ass to the moon and back.

great job.

Okay..Now you did it to me T.T!!
I am speechless...
the picture is just too awesome!! It is giving me so many feelings that I don't really know what to write..
I love her expression, the idea with the blood and so on, her eyes, the way you painted, the strokes, the colours!! Everything is just too amazing.
Haven't seen a picture that makes me feel like it for a while.

Uhmm....I've got a question .
Would you mind if I will use this picture as a pose refence for an upcoming photoshooting of my adult Toph cosplay ?
Its just so amazing that I want to make it real x3.

Keep it up!
Greetings and much love

Draekonus [2012-11-12 00:52:00 +0000 UTC]

Nice job.

Minor nitpick: Toph's eyes are more of a pale shade of jade (slightly greenish tint) rather than grey-ish.

Meh, artistic license I guess.

If you actually look at official work from the show, the tone seems to vary. Sometimes it is a milky white/gray, others it is the shade you're referring to. Generally, though, it IS more common for people to portray her in fanart with the minty green kind of deal, though, yes. I wasn't particular about this, but that's also because real life blind people never have green toned eyes, in my experience.

I love this soooo much it's even the wallpaper on my phone and every time I go to unlock it she just gives me the urge to punch someone in the face. I can imagine her kissing her knuckles and muttering "all in a days work". I fuck with this so hard. Someone needs to write fic based off this picture of Toph just kicking ass. And I really love how you drew her bangs and eyes cause her bangs are all frazzled but her eyes look calm like she barely broke a sweat.

Hm, you...must have missed reading the description. This IS for a fic -- one I have started writing and will be working on properly later, after my current fic is complete. There is more art for this story project here: [link]
