Next page: (coming soon)
Quick recap:
Visiting Kazekage Gaara just "materialized" himself into Naruto's apartment building after being invited by Naruto. Going up the stairs, he spots a stranger rushing away and leaving a box in front of Naruto's door...
He sends his sand to capture the culprit and mysterious box.
Um, yeah...experimenting with tones. Can't wait to finally get a hang of it. And yes, this is very old work. XD;
Sketched out on Open Canvas, inked and toned on Manga Studio. Text was done on both Manga Studio and Photoshop.
EDIT: Ah ha! I thought I was missing something. XD sorry guys!

I love both of their expressions... I keep imagining how it would look in colour.

Wow now that makes me wanna continue reading. Though I'm no longer fan of Naruto thanks to those later chapters I won't even bother spoiling about, I still have soft spot for Hinata
She's the main reason why I continue reading.

Awesome as always, keep it up!

Either way, I love your details as always, and whoever the chick is, good job with her

I stopped reading/watching Naruot because they keep dragging out the Naruto wants Sasuke back like a psychotic gay man, but Sasuke keeps refusing thing for waaaaaaaaayyyyy too long, but I do try to keep up with it somewhat. Hinata was always my favorite girl. I liked reading/watching her grow from this cute, timid, and shockingly self-loathing little girl into this much more powerful, confident, and competent young woman.

Yes, thank you. I don't care too much for these two as much as I care about the supporting characters. lol!
awww! she's your fave too? She is awesome, I love her cute self and inner strength. So damn charming. Cools, I hope to produce more Hinata fanart this year. Wish we could see more of her...

michealdark In reply to jbramx2 [2009-05-29 00:43:30 +0000 UTC]
That's why I kinda like the show more than the manga, because Hinata has had some pretty significant character arcs and appearances in general. Especially the arc with Naruto catching her practicing naked in the river (without knowing it's her) and finding her beautiful, and then that training paying off to her making maybe the most powerful jutsu in that entire universe!

Yup, yup. I get the feeling the animation studio is a bigger fan of Hinata than Kishimoto is. Cuz they certainly render her much more lovingly than he does. 9_9
