I'm pretty terrible at keeping up with this weekly challenge thing... Anyway, this is my submission for *megoomba Weekly Fanart Challenge, that she's holding. [link] This week, the theme was Avatar: The Last Airbender and I thought I might as well try to draw something since the finale will be playing this week (aka a few minutes from now).

I've never actually been able to catch up with the show, but from the few episodes I managed to watch, I think Mai was my favorite character. But from what I'm getting from the fandom, she's also one of the most disliked characters. A little fact that made me laugh. Either way, I thought she still pretty cool because she seemed like the kind of character that too many blow off before having a chance to scratch her surface. But maybe I just have a thing for the "silent, yet strong" type of characters.

Anyway, I'm rather happy with how this came out. I couldn't help but mess around and give Mai a brighter color scheme with her clothes. I think her skin tone is suppose to be lighter too, but I really don't like shading pale skin so I chose a darker color. I also omitted her sleeve because I really didn't want to draw them, laziness at it's best. So yeh, considering I sketched this Sunday and slowly dragged my feet all this week to have it finished, I'm happy with the result.

I hope you guys enjoy! And if you excuse me, I have some popcorn to pop! Harharhar~
