I wanted to do some Avatar: The Last air bender fan art. After doing some research I found the main complaint with other peoples fan art was "That isn't the actual style they use." So i decided to create some thumbnails.

These are rough thumbnails meant to be used as reference to Kung Fu moves, they are not fighting stances and they are not 100% exact. IE/ Hand positions. Some positions may look strange because the person is moving around.

Kung Fu Style: Baguazhang

Referenced From: random youtube vid, no credit was given to the actual person performing.

Notes: The vid I found was amazing, I am unable to even capture an ounce of the elegance the person performing had.

Also the person is actually walking around in circles as they perform.

I used this as a reference for a picture and linked back :) I messed up the pose a bit but didn't realize it until I was pretty far in, but that's okay. Thank you so much for posting these. They are wonderful inspiration - by far the best bending references I've seen around.

My best wishes to you and may art fill you with inspiration and continue to flow from your talented soul.
