Legend of Korra- Makorra: See Me Smiling
I have so many darn tootin' feelings for these two; all the way from the beginning of my discovery of the show (which includes the whole year leading up to its actual release). And I have some sort of feeling they will most likely be one of my new OTPs. A very prestigious list, might I add.
On the actual topic of the art, I think the shading was more than a little blech and the lighting a little to... uh, light? Ya know, not enough shadow. However in the making of the background I discovered these really awesome little tree brushes.
LIKE PRE-MADE BRUSHES IN THE SHAPE OF TREES.
Like cookie cutters.... :3

How cool is that?!!? -screams in happiness-

Art aside, I have some things I would like to put out there about this shipping. I know a lot of people have been saying- 'Oh yeah, Makorra. The second Zutara.'
No.
I'm not sure what's going on here, but Makorra is definitely not a 'second Zutara'. Being a Zutara shipper of several years, I think I would know the difference. It's not Bryke saying sorry, and giving un-needed condolences, because he doesn't need to do that. However ever much some of us might disagree with Kataang, it's not our storyline to twist and suit to our liking. And Zutara is very to my liking thank you very much.
You see, Zuko is hot-headed, passionate and a relatively angry person. Mako is almost a polar opposite. Although both are indescribably hot-
He is indeed calm, cool, collected and unlike Zuko- he is willing to admit to being wrong.
I quote:
Bolin: Mmhmm, very confused right now...
Mako: Your the Avatar and I'm an idiot.
Korra: Both of which are true.
And I don't even think I need to outline the differences between Katara and Korra. That's just a little laughable.
Now any of you out there being happy Makorra is your replacement Zutara fixation; I say to you- please, just no. Zutara has always been, from what I've perceived, to be a hot, passionate, dramatic sort of love. Correct me if I'm wrong- it was always forbidden, some way or another.
But Makorra hasn't even developed yet, except for this kiss-
And this cute little scene here (of in which I totally did not fangirl out -____-):
On a brighty-bright, cheery tone, I'd just like to say how excited I am for more development in this shipping >,<
Very, very excited.
(^^^ I am just very much in love with that GIF. Ehehe... No regrets...)
