Yeah, they ended up making Katara's hair danglies(?) into hair loopies after the original design proved too hard to consistently animate well, and then found out after the fact that hair loopies were an actual Inuit style.

Oh, and have some blonde Smellerbee.

Here you go.

The only pics I've taken so far are up through season 1 and a segment on the hybrid animals. If anyone has requests for interesting things from certain other episodes (or from the section in the book on the Chinese calligraphy), just ask and I'll see what there is in the book to match your request.

Korean animators. Never ask too much detail and quality when outsourcing to people who have no idea about literally everything in your show. Same reason skin colours varies from episodes to apisodes, and Katara sometime having a nigger nose and sometime not.

If there's one flaw with the art book, it's that important secondary characters don't get nearly enough art, as opposed to shots of landscapes and other setting-related art. Poor Toph only got one page!

Toph isn't a major character in the show actually. she's just one of many Aang's teachers. They probably developped her on the last moment, seeing how well fans reacted to her.
