Heyo,First and foremost, I think this is more a technical piece, rather than a full art piece, so don't take the low scores to harshly. Second, I'm a huge fan of both the Last Airbender and Legend of Korra.Let's start at the bottom.Originality: You made a bust of your favorite character, which people have been doing for literally over 5000 years. You have presented the character as depicted during the show. This is a dead center, straight facing portrait bust. I have seen the 3/4 profile, but that's only a hair better.Vision: Here I feel you would have more success, if you tried to figure what who the animators were originally trying to portray, instead of portraying the animation. if you want to render a tree, you don't render a painting of a tree. Hopefully that makes sense. This would also help your originality,Technique: The modeling looks good. You have a good idea what the character looks like and seem to have a firm grasp anatomy. I'm not sure you chose the best lighting. Despite the hard, dark lined shadows cast from the chin and hair, the lighting looks flat.This follows into texture. The skin looks flat, and greasy. I'm just looking at my arms and hands here, but you need more texture, perhaps using bump or normal maps. Lastly hair: I put this off until the end, because to really improve this, above what I mentioned for the skin, would be to render individual hairs, and I don't know what kind of machine your using and if it can even do it, so I'm not holding that against you.Vision and Originality are short, again, because this is a technical piece, which is why that's much longer.Impact. After seeing the way realistic pokemon has become widespread on this site, and how long realistic Disney characters have been doing the rounds, this strikes me a logical next step, for realistic three dimensional animated characters. There is a lot of potential here, but I feel like a lot of that is being missed, by focusing on the technical aspect of this piece. Give us a story, show us the character in the piece, something more than his physical appearance to engage the audience. Take your technical work, and arrange it so that it stands as a piece of art on it's own, and I think the Impact your work can have will be much higher.Over, keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing what you do.
