   Not sure I've responded to any of the art yet--I rarely respond unless I have something mind-blowing to say--but I realized I've looked at and loved virtually every piece you put out and never said a word about any of it.

So let me just get out there that I'm very fond of your art, especially the coloration. I'm not going to pretend that I know anything about art, or that I can offer a coherent critique, like I can for the stories themselves, but thank you for all the effort you put into these.

As for this particular one, Korra must have felt like she had a dagger in her chest the first time she saw Minami all grown up...

She'd sort of learned to expect it by that point (not that that helped, probably). All the Sato women have strongly resembled Asami as adults - although Minami does accentuate the resemblance further by wearing her hair that way.

   Very nice artwork. Asami really shines through in Minami. Ryo...hmm. I'm not sure what is supposed to be conveyed in terms of his background. His appearance does comport well with his depicted character. All in all, a nice piece.

Well, it's sort of a gradient fill...

   It's... very pretty but I can't help but feel this is the split second that they're going to fall over because he's leaning on her left shoulder and she's not positioned to support that...

Basically, for an engineer, he seems to be unsafely braced and clearly they both need hard-hats.

He's only miming it. It's an ironic reference to the popular belief that she's propping him up. ;)

   I can see it too, now you've mentioned it, but I was thinking Howard Hughes.

Tony's father Howard was, well, called Howard for a reason, and my mental shorthand for Ryo right along has been "a Corwin-aged, Avatar-universe-ambiguously-Eurasian equivalent of the young Howard Stark from Captain America: The First Avenger," which may have influenced Phil's portrayal - so there you go, you're both sort of right. :)

   True story...

I saw the pic, immediately thought "steampunky" and was about to snarkily reply "Need goggles".

Then I scrolled down....
