Toph surprises me in this picture by looking quite beautiful... Maybe it's the absence of her stupid hairstyle that I could never look past? (And yes, i realize that by posting this, I will most likely be mobbed by all those avatar fans obsessed with Toph's hairstyle, but i personally think it's extremely unflattering.)
Also, I just wanted to let you know that you are an AWESOME artist and this pic is no exception... and that I like you even more now that i found that you make avatar fanart.
