Description
Right o...still not satisfied with it. Drawing-wise, I think this is the weakest of all my drawing pieces.
Coloring job is killing me right now. Again, I'm having trouble bringing background and foreground together. But I figured I should submit it now since I won't be able to submit anything for another week or so...(going back to work...) When I get back, I'll probably change the tone of color for their clothes. 
Dunno...Hm, while I was coloring it, the kid's gender kept changing. lol, sometimes it looked girly sometimes it looked boyish. Coloring a child's face certainly is different. *sighs* Well, at least now I know how to do a child's face next time.
God this kid's eyes are HUGE. XD;;Well...ya'll can probably figure out whose mom it is. But I think it could pass off for anyone's kid. 'Takes after the father mostly...
In my head when I first sketched this, I am not sure what I was aiming for. I think I wanted to give Gaara a daughter, but upon completion, I saw that it could be a boy, which appealed to me somewhat. Gaara having a pretty boy son.
I can see Temari being all over him and considering him her fave nephew (or only nephew since at this time I don't see Kankuro with kids...) XDAnyhoo, I figured to draw that kid as a little tyke.
He's a little different in my doujin, his hair is short like Gaara's. But I had imagined him to be a sweetie very much like the way Gaara was as a little kid, (before he was betrayed I mean.
). Kinda shy, thoughtful, naive and a little scaredy-cat. The kind ya just wanna hug. Wait, okay yeah, that's his description in my doujin. Before I thought up the doujin, he was a cheerful hyper little tyke. The reason Gaara's holding onto his legs is to stop him from kicking about excitedly.
He's pretty much adorable. The way I think Gaara might've turned out if he had a normal childhood. O_o; Not that we'll be seeing him anytime soon though. Oo; I doubt I'll get that far...
Still, one can dream I guess. I re-designed Gaara's kazekage clothes if anyone's wondering. I know what it really looks like, I just felt like playing around with it. Not too happy with it, but I did learn a few new things...XD; The kid's outfit is a mix of...Gaara's childhood outfit with...I dunno.
The scarf just felt natural...Gray and navy blue seemed to suit him some. Took me a few moments to decide what to dress him. But I can see Temari dressing him in colors similar to Kazekage's clothes. The EYES were the toughest to do. The background was a little annoying, but once i got it done, I didn't touch it much again. But I had to keep retouching and fixing the eyes and the skin color. Mostly because I wanted to do them as similar as possible to the anime.
Not easy, considering everything had ended up looking realistic and well...pupil-less eyes are NOT.Hope ya guys like for now! ^^
EditHere's an example of how much girlier the tyke had looked before, in case anyone's wondering.
Before and After: Pride and Joy Kazekage Gaara belongs to Kishimoto and anyone else who owns NARUTO.
the tyke is mine!
Oh wait, yeah, I forgot. Hinata's his mom. Deal with it!
EDIT: and In case you missed it, his name is Aiji.
