Avatar series

Oel ngati kameie

Ok I'm back on track after Avatarising myself. 

I watched the lengthy movie twice in the last few days and picked out some scenes and characters for my Avatar Series on Etsy. That was the easy part.

Painting them was quite a challenge. None of them were turning out as I envisioned and the unpredictability of watercolour didn't help either. I'm pleasantly surprised at the end result though. *beam*

Avatarised palette

Random thought: I think it's pretty cool that the Na'vi are blue, since the term Avatar is often associated with the blue-skinned Hindu God Vishnu.

Some lol material, Avahontas anyone?

Yes the storyline has been done to death in lots of movies but it's still a spectacular piece of filmmaking with amazing special effects. 

Bring on Avatar 2 :)

My avatar

I've been wanting to create paintings with an Avatar feel to it. I'm not into sci-fi and fantasy but I was in awe of the colours throughout the film, especially the blues and greens. Whilst googling for images to refresh my memory, I came across tutorials to create a Na'vi Avatar face. 

And that was it. 

I got sidetracked and was completely hooked on Avatarising myself, spending the next 12 hours engrossed in the task and almost turning blue with frustration, due to my lack of Photoshop knowledge.

Well I kinda like my avatar and have been imagining myself on Pandora :)

Oe tsun stum plltxe na'vi!
