Description

Future Industries’ CEO and engineer Asami Sato disembarks after taking a test flight and engine check on a V12-powered turboprop.

Until recently, all commercially manufactured aircraft had been running on 130-150hp rotary engines. The latest Future Industries V12 prototype runs at an astonishing 1,000-hp and is set for release next year.

My favorite Avatar LoK character and basically fictional role model for life. Haha! She’s such a trope-subversive character, and I wish she had existed when I was like 7 or 8. I can’t believe I once thought that getting your hands dirty and looking fabulous had to be mutually exclusive. 

I slightly altered the outfit to have straps/buckles at the wasit for a parachute attachment, like what the RAF had in WW2.

Love it! Amazing that you combined LoK and aircraft. I think Asami would love to fly the spitfire.

Nice! It's interesting to think about the technology that the Avatar world is on the verge of discovering. You've got to love steampunk worlds.

Mobius93 In reply to Anzac-A1 [2018-05-04 06:32:45 +0000 UTC]

I think it's the angle of the wing how it looks to be a small dip like in the Stuka, the nose looks more like a spitfire or a warhawk as well but it has some Stuka in there like the cockpit glass

Anzac-A1 In reply to Mobius93 [2018-05-04 22:07:02 +0000 UTC]

That's just the wing getting thin towards the trailing edge. Also, the Stuka has a very heavily-framed canopy:

I love the painting style, and you did a great job with the textures
I too was enthralled with the general style of the Korra series

It looks like a Spitfire Mk I or II with the fishtail exhausts and a good picture of it.

Btw. V-12 and turboprop don't work in the same engine. A turboprop is a jet engine in which a turbine is used to drive a propeller.

Now all she needs is a holstered Luger and this would look exactly like a pulp novel cover. Great job.

Asami is very a great character. Your job is fantastic !
Why are the pants so dirty? The support where she put her feet are weird but it's very difficult to draw. The rest of the plane is good and nice.

Anday In reply to ChouetteEffraie [2015-02-04 15:18:37 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! They're dirty because they were hard to paint and I still need practice. Simple as that. Haha! Same as the "support". There is no support. The feet/shoes were hard to paint in that angle and shadow but I left it at that since it's not the focal point in the painting, anyway. Haha.

A role model, that is a great way and such a compliment about Asami. 

It is a shame that she didn't always have the best treatment, but come Change and Balance she went from strength to strength. 

About this work...its great. So detailed it's insane.
