Description
Shippers gonna ship. Drawers gonna draw )
Some notes on the artwork:
- Asami is slouching because she is tall. Ahaha. Sorry if it looks uncharacteristic
- The bike is a 1950s Motoguzzi Falcone. LoK’s world aesthetic seems closer to that of the 1920s and the war eras. But I think this cafe racer really fits the series’ design language. Plus, it’s just such a nice-looking bike! I changed the colors to better fit the steam and diesel colors of Republic City.
- The jacket is not an Asami personal jacket cos that would be weird and narcissistic. Plus jock jackets are not a steampunk thing. I justify it as a Sato Mobiles (the automobile brand of Future Industries) jacket, I guess. I just thought it would be nice to have a “Sato” jacket over Korra. I like my cheese subtle
- I did not have them with helmets on because since they have their backs towards us, I only have their silhouettes to rely on for iconic character identity. If I covered the hair, they might as well be some other character pair. But I still drew helmets so as not to violate the representation of safety regulations. I really think these things through, haha.

This is really spectacular. You handled the subtlety masterfully. I knew exactly what was going on at first glance. And the presence of the helmets did not go unnoticed, so that touch was successful. VERY well done. <3

You're very welcome! I put a lot of the same effort into my own work, so I appreciate it when I see it elsewhere. <3

The use of a white background actually works for this!

Haha, glad it did. I usually love doing backgrounds but I have to be honest that I did lose time on this one due to work.
Thank you though

Oh well...
It has some symbolism of travelling to nowhere or to wherever.

Yaaaasss! That's the idea XD But Asami's sneaky; they took a motorcycle so Korra has to put her arms around her. Haha!
