Avatar Korra - cel painting

Decided at this year's Melbourne Manifest that I should try my hand at cel painting again. So I picked up this adorable chibi Avatar Korra (line art artist unknown) and attempted the second cel paint of my entire life. It didn't turn out too bad, if I do say so myself.

I think I spent about and hour and a half working at it because I was determined to get every highlight and shadow in that I thought was required. Considering you have to do everything backwards in a cel paint, I thought I did quite well. I'm especially proud of her eyes.
