Okay, this drawing have taken me forever. I started this thing back in December, but it got delayed for many reasons. Including be decided to draw a plane and its exterior, a character of a friend, and a gun, though the latter was required for this one.
I have often drawn Kätsrìl as being very buff and no one can stop me! but I don't lie and say she'd have looked like that out of the gate. Like in Avatar 1, we see Jake coming out of the amnio pod looked rather slim and untrained, as opposed to the final battle.
With that in mind, I thought it would be fun to challenge myself to draw Kät how she'd look when she first came out of the pod and arrived on Pandora.
Now, due to the Myostatin-ralted muscle hypertrophy, I would reason she is still buffer than normal and all that since what of food her avatar was fed during the travel to Pandora, would be allocated more to muscle development. So I tried to tone it down and make it less obvious. Instead I tried to play with shade to highlight them.
It also made me consider what kind of equipment the RDA would give Kät given she is a liability from the beginning. First, I did stick with the clothing and just gave her tac-harness (if she wanted to live like the savages, she can dress like one), and an ammo pouch. The pouch holds around 10 sabots for the RG-30 "portable" Railgun she has been given, a gun so big she is the only one who could reasonably wield it outside of an AMP suit, and it's complex reload means she can't effectively turn on them because she only gets one shot... as further incentive beyond her human body being held hostage.
I also gave her a tiny shock collar for the fun of it... even if it might be over to the top.
On the other side, I drew her as I normally draw her, and at that point, I opted to draw her with a bow. Which is freakishly huge. It measures around 10'6" (3.2m), and the arrow is 8'7" (2.62m) long, the size of Neytiri. The weight is a guess, I am still not sure how wild it is.
Oh well.
