I'll make a few more doodles based on this idea in due time, maybe color this one, but I saw some designs for "older Korra" on the net where she's in her 20s or so and was a little unsatisfied because they're mostly "Korra with a new outfit, maybe taller?"
So I told myself "A 4-year time-skip is smalltime. Plenty of people draw 20-something Korra, let's design 50-something or 60-something Korra," dipped into the well that gave me old!Yi Lin, and this popped out.
(Lots of Street Fighter went into this, yes. Why do you ask?)
I was picturing a warrior-shaman kind of look, all together meant to be equal parts spiritual and feral, just as capable at wisdom and guidance as fighting and a Kyoshi-esque giant of a woman. Mako, Bolin, and Asami are probably pretty close to the height they're gonna be be the rest of their lives in the actual series, but Korra just kinda...doesn't stop.
The character on her back is supposed to be her name (taken from the Avatar wiki, no clue how accurate it is, or what the shoe uses instead.) I wanna change it to say "The Strongest," now. Running idea is that a thug traipsing around the Water Tribes was causing trouble, and Korra beat him in single combat, and gave it to her as a show of honor.
Sorry for blabbing it up, but reaching this idea just led to many more. I'll prolly have some more stuff in the coming days, when I get a bit more time to doodle.
