I made a new Na’vi oc! Her name is Ìsnä and she is a mix between a reef navi and a wind trader I am so excited to write stories with her! #avatar2009 #avatarfireandash #avatarwayofwater #avataroc #navioc
For both images the skin and clothes are not fully rendered.

To the left is a full body image, it is a female navi with a purplish hue similar to the wind traders seen in the third movie. However her eyes are a light teal, this is from her reef na’vi father. Other traits from her father is a paddled tail, thicker arms, wavy long hair, and smaller pointier ears. Ìsnä’s stripes are a mix between wavy water-like patterns and more striped, a mix of both her parents. 

She has moles scattered around her body but two distinct ones on her face. One on her forehead above her right eye, another nearby just above the bridge of her nose.

She does not have earrings - nor doesn’t wear them too often. She is in wind-trader attire. On each side of her face are bubble ‘braids’ that go down to her hips; a similar pattern in the middle of her hair too on her scalp til it gets larger and forms the braid around her kuru. 

She has foot protection for when she dances close to fire, however she still has some scars on the bottom of her feet.

~~~~~

In the middle there is a chibi character in similar attire as the one to the left. Orangish pink top with tassels on the bottom of the cape in the back. Her skirt is purple with a teal overlay. She is decorated in plenty of beads like other wind traders. She also uses them effectively when dancing during celebrations.

~~~~~

All the way to the right is her back turned as she looks back confidently. This shows that even though she is socially anxious, she gains all of her confidence when dancing!

She is smiling slightly which shows she has dimples!

This back detail also shows how a portion of her skirt goes under her tail and there are knife loopsA bigger photo of the image all the way to the right of the previous photo

general background:
When she was a baby her clan (not the Tlalim Clan but similar) agreed to try and soften the discrimination she faced - however she was not shielded from it.

As Isna grew the other children on the ship would make passing comments, however by being on the same boat it was hard to hide her reaction to their words or actions. Eventually the kids (and adults) realized the effect that their comments and actions did, and they reformed their behavior to be more accepting of her. However, the effect of their behavior was everlasting - forming her personality to be more shy and withdrawn with strangers. Meeting other clans validated her actions as they did not shy away from teasing and making comments. Her clan would do their best to warn adults before introduction. Children and adults did their best to protect or defend Isna.

By her teen years Isna learned to not take people’s words personally, a part of her hated her differences. She found security and happiness with close bonds within and out of her clan and by visiting her father as their trading cycle goes. Despite the minimal time together, her father adores her, trying to do anything to make her happy. Her father never found a mate.

Isna never bonded with a creature on Pandora (or learned to swim). Her father loves her very much, but also hinders her life with what he says, not knowing his loving words had lasting effect. He reassured her that her reclusiveness to her friends in her clan were valid and not everyone could accept her differences. 

Isna found a medium where no matter where she was, who surrounded the fire, they adored her and found her beautiful. That was dancing, she had an amazing skill for it and even those who comment on her body find her dancing alluring. She continues to travel with her mother and the wind traders, however she yearns to settle - adoring the warm beaches to sunbathe.

The 'apple' trend, but with a Spartan fruit from Avatar! (the fruit we see Jake eating in the first movie) To the left is my OC Seyta, on the right is my friend's OC Chris @dahliaflowerss.bsky.social [ #avatarsky #recomOC #avatarOC #naviOC #avatar2009 ]
A Spartan fruit from James Cameron's world of Pandora. The fruit is mostly devoured, the core remaining and the peals of the fruit fraying from the middle. The right side has a bit more fruit than the left side, and the right side's skin is more crumpled and damaged.The fruit remains from the previous image, this time the heads on each side, revealing that the fruit was a silhouette of a man and a woman. To the left is a native na'vi woman, Seyta (owned by me ~ pastls) and to the right is a recom, Christopher (owned by dahliaflowerss) 

The woman is closer to the fruit's core, symbolism of her closeness to Eywa and in turn the forest and Pandora. While, Chris' is farther away and the fruit's skin on his side is dehydrated and crumpled. 

I chose to have just the fruit colored to emphasis their differences and have it remain the focus. However, I was proud with how the faced turned out so the next photo is just the two faced staring at each other. 

Can you tell I love doodling these two? I love their story and can't wait to delve more into their story!The fruit is no longer shown and its just the faced, remaining colorless. I love how clear their biological appearances are here and having the side where Chris' piercings are visible.

My last artfight attack of this year is for @nin3kyuu.bsky.social (my first Na'vi/Avatar attack ever!) I will always get my revenge! [ #avatarsky #navioc #avatar2009 #artfight #artfightfossils ]
Ni'nätya is sitting on some sand at the beach, she is leaning back on her right hand and facing towards the viewer.  

On her neck there are six rings that signify her rank within her clan (per her owner's fun facts). On her left ear there is a head/earpiece decoration that is featherlike - the colors ombré from red to yellow and it is split into a cascade in size of 6 separate details. 

She has a two-piece fabric skirt that is layered on top of each other, the top is yellow and the bottom is tan. The tan potion has an orange flower on it. The flower's design is warped as the fabric folds over itself. Additionally, there are portions of the 'back' design that come from the skirt with how the skirt is shaped.

I had a blast drawing Ni'nätya, her markings were fun and I love drawing curly/wavy hair!

some art I did of my friend's OC Chris - the concept is my OC Seyta recording him with a camcorder! Since she doesn't know human tech very well, she is asking him if she's doing it right @dahliaflowerss.bsky.social [ #avatarsky #recomOC #avatarOC #avatar2009 #recom ]
this is a sketch version of Dahlia's OC Chris, he is being recorded by my OC Seyta. The recording device is an old camcorder. There is text underneath the main art of Seyta saying: 'Chris look over here! Am I doing it right? *snickering*'.

This brings some clarity on why he is looking at the camera whilst being recorded. 

To give the illusion that this camcorder isn't brand new I put the record time in the top right. Currently it's at one hour and thirty minutes. However, I definitely see Seyta using this more in the future to capture interesting, funny, sweet, or scary moments the two will experience. In the top left there is the camera battery which is 75% full. 

Next to the battery is my artfight handle pastl rather than this handle pastls. This is because I made this art before I made this bluesky profile! Bluesky and artfight are the only sites where I post my art.This is the same as the previous picture, this time the background is shaded, and Chris is completely in greyscale will full shading.This is the same as the previous pictures, this time the background is shaded, and Chris is completely colored will full shading. Rather than coloring the background, Chris and the battery are the only things colored so that they pop!

I did originally color Seyta's hand too, however it took away from the piece too much and away from the focal point - Chris!
