au where Aang gets told he's the Avatar (and subsequently frozen) at 16 like he was supposed to.... I think it would change a lot honestly

Cosmic Imitation

Bending over, he cried, "Grow!" and at once grew to be ten thousand feet tall, with a head like the Tai Mountain and a chest like a rugged peak, eyes like lightning and a mouth like a blood bowl, and teeth like swords and halberds. The rod in his hands was of such a size that its top reached the thirty-third Heaven and its bottom the eighteenth layer of Hell.

for the DTIYS by @lavaflowe!! it was such an awesome concept, I just had to get a bit daring with the perspective :D had to get some photobashing going close to the end though but it worked out well!

rambles about the artistic choices under read more <3

I exchanged the skullcap bowl for a gourd, since Wukong is often represented in religious statues as holding one or an immortal peach. The headdress was inspired by Beijing opera, but the mirror was borrowed from Lion Dance costumes. The mirror on their heads is meant to repel bad energies. The tiger pelt kilt is a classic of course, and a symbol of a protective deity. The long draping tail and staff supporting the heaven was my way of giving an awing sense of scale and of his reach. The symbols in the sky is the Chinese star map. And it's hard to tell, but the mountains in the distance are the other three Continents in the JTTW cosmology.

To be serious for a second- art block is a serious thing( and this is for everyone):

Remember to take your time, even if you need to take a break from art

Don’t force yourself to draw anything you don’t want ( line art, rendering, complex char, etc.)

Maybe try some art studies- these usually help me ( anatomy, maybe an artstyle you’ve admired for a long time, or replicate different art you find on Pinterest )

Ex:

I know art block can be stressful especially when your job is your art, but nobody wins if you hurt yourself trying to force yourself through it.

I need to stop having art block

IM TOO POOR FOR THAT
