Description EDIT
Wow, everyone's been so nice! However, I think I see the light, now. This is pretty fugly (effing ugly). There's so many things wrong. The thing I hate the most...is her face! >_____> I'm so sorry Katara...I do you no justice...

HALT!
Any anti-Zutara flames, sarcasm, and poop will not be tolerated. I will not hold any discussions or flame wars about different couples. This deviation is for viewing pleasure, only.

When I saw Katara's mom on TSR, I just thought she looked so amazing and pretty!

Well, since Katara is the daughter of the chief, it's safe to give her the title of princess of the Southern Water Tribe. This is her when she's about 16-17 yrs old.

Anyways, even though I like Zutara, I still dislike the idea that she's a prize for either Zuko or Aang. I still picture her as an independent soul that would help lead her people now that Yue is the moon spirit. With her abilities and character, I think she's more than something to hang off of someone's arm.

I was sad the show ended, so I'm working on something that I felt like I needed to get off my chest. Zutara-related, obviously. Besides, Bryke, be happy to know how many people like your show - shipping or no shipping.

Also, I did this because I was having a bad week with drawings lately.

Time: 8 hours
Inspiration: Merry-Go-Round of Life (Howl's Moving Castle OST)

Something about the way she looks reminds me of Juliet from Romeo and Juliet. For a second I was wondering if this was part of a fanfic-inspired art? Nevertheless I love it

Bad week? Fugly? Nonsense! This is one of the most gorgeous character designs for Katara that I've seen on DA so far. Everything, including her face, blends right in to the priness theme. I imagine that this is what Katara will dress in when the Southern Water Tribe pulls itself back together and starts having formal state banquets again.

Techanically, she's not a princess, because her tribe doesn't have royal, but the picture is great nonetheless

Wow! Katara really looks like princess just like Yue. She is the daughter of the cheif and very powerful waterbender so IMO this completely fits.

Also I completely agree about Katara not being some prize to for either guy. She strong idepantent woman.

It's a beautiful look for her. And I agree about Katara's character 100%. It shouldn't have mattered WHO she got with, but who she was at the end of the war.

Just one question tho....how is this zutara related?

That looks beautiful! Your design for Katara's outift is IMPECABLE. <3

And I totally agree with you. I would not want Katara to be given as a prize to ANYONE. However, Bryke seemed to make it seem like she was one. :/ I really wish they solved the argument her and Aang had before EIP, then the final ship outcome wouldn't have been so insulting to her character.

Ashen-Phoenix [2008-07-30 19:00:48 +0000 UTC]

I absoltuely agree with you. Katara never struck me as the kind of girl who could (or would) only ever be someone's arm candy. Her personality and character is much too strong and independant for that to ever happen.

I'm so happy you updated again! Now, if only, dare I hope, for a revival of (how should i put it?) the Royalty series you started, what with Sad Toph and Katara's Hope and all that?

theweasleyboys [2008-07-30 01:18:41 +0000 UTC]

I could definitely see something like this, too, especially since Team Pakku was last seen rebuilding their sister tribe. For all we know, that could include ice cities and waterways to rival the North...and a chief upgrade for Hakoda, which could/should make him a royal chief. XD

Lovely job on everything, including the dress!

while i personally wasn't pro-zutara i totally agree. i hate how katara was made out to be some kind of prize. she's an independent person. i love your idea of her taking over after yue became moon spirit. heck, maybe she did.

this is gorgeous!! and I agree with you totally that she would do as much as she could to help her people before she went off with any guy. besides, zuko likes powerful girls. aang just needs a mommy.

MartyBishop [2008-07-27 06:52:51 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I can wholeheartedly agree with your point of view on Katara. She can never be a second-best kind of girldfriend.

The ending didn't suit me either. All right, I am a Zutarian as well, but that was not the reason. The kiss with Aang in the end was simply so made-up. Without any explanation, without any visible emotional change from Katara's side. What made her change her mind? During the final battle, she was with Zuko and didn't see Aang fight. It seemed too unbelievable for me to like it.

In any case! Yes, there should be a lot Zutara art. Some things are on my mind too, I just need the time and mind to get it down .

Oh! And! Of course! Your Katara is really beautiful here . But why does she have this worried look on her face?
