Description More like 'Hide & Find', I figured that playing hide and seek with Toph wouldn't be all that fun because of her abilities

I like how her grin turned out in the last panel, making her look really proud of herself. Toph is such a great character

Hand-drawn, inked, scanned and colored in Photoshop7. After coloring the contrast was increased by playing around with light/shadows levels.

I know the perfect way for aang to win, use airbending and just hover close to the ceiling without hitting it, and be sure to be quite, she wouldn't find him in a couple of days.

Aang should have thought about that, and so should I

Thank you, that was what I going for with Aang. It must be really frustrating to play hide & seek with someone who can feel you through the earth

Well, I was reading some of the other comments and it brought my attention to her foot which is amazing! I've seen a few of the very early Avatar episodes so I know a little about the show. I think the comic was brilliant. Very funny though now that I know what Toph controls it makes it that much funnier! Aang's expression is great in the second frame.

this is funny, makes me think that i should probably go and watch avatar. If i can make a suggestion i thnk the shading could be more dynamic, the folds would have more shade, there would only be a few points of highlight while the rest is much more shaded.... im not quite sure how to explain. This is funny piece do they have bleach, Naruto, and or DBZ style powers?

I think I get waht you mean, I've been trying to increase the contrast to make the shading stand out, but I'm still too careful and affraid of going overboard. I'll experiment in future pieces. Once again thank you for the constructive criticism, it's really helpful

And you should watch Avatar, it has adventure, intrigue, an interesting world setting and the characters are simply great. No wonder the show is so popular, and I plan on getting the DVDs so I can watch the episodes I missed. As for their powers, they control elements (fire, water, earth, or air) and basically use them as tools, which is called 'bending'. One person can only master one element, and my understanding is that this is an ability they have from birth depending on their lineage. The Avatar (Aang, the boy with the tattoos) can control all elements and Toph (the blind girl) is a master of earth-bending.

dont play around with contrast to much, if necessary just add the shades already in the program using a brush, i see the contrast tool, thingy, whatever as more of a photographers thing. Then again i dont quite know myself, but thats what i'l' recommend. Souds good i'll watch avatar if i can find it on youtube watching it on tv will mean starting somewhere in the middle and i dont wanna do that.

What I've been doing is using a darker shade of the color with a soft brush set to ~15%. My problem is that I should use an even darker shade, but I've been too timid up to now. Fun about all this is experimenting anyway

Not sure if you'll find Avatar episodes at Youtube, what with all the legal issues they'v been having. I hope you do, it's one of the very rare shows I watch. In fact I rarely watch more than 3 hours of TV per week now.

Thank you for the fav, and as for feet I still have some way to go before they're just like they should. Practice is the word here

The thing is the better I get the better I want to be, and I'm a recovering perfectionist so I have to remind myself that sometimes you can only do your best, even if it's not perfect
