Background designs from the final episodes of Book One: WATER, Episode 18: The Waterbending Master / 19 & 20: The Siege of the North (Part 1 & 2). By Elsa Garagrava, Bryan Evans, Mike van Cleave (not sure about Konietzko, or others). Scans from ”The Art of the Animated series“ (order)

Bryan/Mike: The Avatar is a travelling road show, we rarely spent more than one episode in any given place. Being in the Northern Water Tribe for three epiosdes gave us the oportunity to further develop a complex location and explore it from many different angles. || Much consideration was given to what materials the Water Tribe would use in their architecture, due to their limited resources. In many places throughout the city, the structural supports were fashioned from whale bones, while Waterbenders formed the ice into beautiful buildings, bridges, and sculptures.

2 seasons down, 2 to go

Welcome to my new followers, and I’m glad to see people are enjoying the Samurai Jack posts! I feel I’ve personally learned a few things about design during this whole project, and am happy to keep on making screenshots through the end of the series.

However, I’ve been struggling to create or reblog posts on the regular basis I initially intended, because I am lousy at building up a buffer and this blog, though worth it to me, is a larger time commitment than I ever expected it would be. I will be taking a break for the next month from any posting...partially because the end of Season 2 marks a good rest point for me and I’d like to buff that buffer a little more, and also because of various other personal life and work priorities. I may post something non-samurai related at the two week point, but for the most part, I will resume posting February 18th with Season 3 and other assorted weekly items.

In the meantime, feel free to browse the season 1 and season 2 tags for all my Samurai Jack posts to date, and the tag page for all other backgrounds.

Thanks for your patience, and I hope your new year is off to a lovely start!
