Artist's Comments

Paper bag puppets. Nothing simpler. Well I tried to but failed. The rig to get them to flap their mouths was complicated, getting the big puppets hands to stay in the bags was complicated... At least painting them was a lot of fun.

I was asked how come the art for the bag girls looks so good when Sokka, being the "creator" of at least five of them, is supposed to have bad art skills. All I can say was I missed that mark :XD: I was concentrating so hard at making Suki's makeup look accurate that once I stopped to see hot I had done, it looked too good to go bad and make it crummy. So the rest of them followed suit in style.

Who knows? Maybe Sokka commissioned them from a Devaintartist. :D

They don't look too bad in this picture but I can tell you, they all took a major beating (literally) and I'm amazed they aren't more torn up then they are.

You're... you're too much, Mr. Coppa! :worship:

:rofl: Nice.

Your little mention of trying to imitate Sokka's style makes me think of a very confusing question:
If you try to fail, and end up succeeding, what have you done? :XD:

LOL! Actually I think that very scenario was answered in a Simpsons epsiode once. Homer got an entry into the Websters New World Dictionary named after him:

"Homer: (i.e. Pulling-a-Homer) To accidentally succeed through failure." :D
:iconsarcasticleaves:
Sokka stole them from the true artist of the Avatar world.. Appa :D I just adore how you did these, so creative.
:iconpirate-liz:
I..just realized that the angry part on Azula was her mouth.
For the longest time it looked like Sokka had become angry and given her a moustache >>

:XD: Don't worry, you're not alone in having thought that! But yes, it is intended to be an "angry sharp-teethed" smile but who knows? Fire Nation prison may do strange things to your body chemistry.

Not quite the same thing...
The question asked "if you tried to fail...", as in, intentionally attempting to do something wrong.

Still, funny puppets. :D
