Isn't my title incredibly original?

This is a drawing that I started some time ago, but didn't finish until just this afternoon.

I did a bit of research for this picture, especially into the Hung-gar style of Kung Fu, used in Earthbending. I know Toph uses Southern Praying Mantis, but that was even more difficult to find pictures and videos of . Toph's pose here is confusing- she's leaning forward slightly, her head's a little lowered, and she's turning her torso. Her right foot is blocked due to poor placement of where the rock is coming out from . I'm not very good at compositions, so I tend to draw only a handful of characters at a time .

I realise this picture bears an uncanny resemblance to the DVD cover for Book 2 Volume 2. However, I started this picture and did my research before the picture for that DVD cover went online. As such, you can imagine my disappointment and frustration when I saw it. I think that's what put me off from finishing this until now.

I'm happy with the way the rock turned out though...

I mean, this is what earthbending's all about, right? Gratuitous foot-stomping, and huge chunks of earth coming out of nowhere with lots of displaced dirt flying around. WHEEEE!

I hope you guys like it .
