Prince of Fire Nation

Zuko, Prince of Fire Nation, from "Avatar, the Last Airbender." I've watched the entire show during the summer and I've really loved it; it was a nice surprise. Not only the 2D graphics are great but the scenario is quite mature, especially during Season 3. I took a picture of my boyfriend for the pose and used a lamp in front of him to get the light correct This painting took me three weeks, men are quite hard to paint ^^

EDIT : Wow, really, thanks to all the people who faved this painting ! It's really rewarding and motivating. I'm also very glad that a lot of people told me it looks like a photograph, it means that I'm finally getting close to realism
As a bonus, I've made a WIP of this piece, check it out !
