Description
...another day. All the world is waiting for the sun...Woot! I finally finished it! Took long enough alright. X3 (like oh, several months...) Mostly cuz I couldn't decide on the coloring for clothes or the theme. But thanks to Summoner Lenne's tip, I finish coloring it.
Here's how it looked when I got stuck and wanted to submit it already Cool Version
YES! Tis Kazekage Gaara and Chunin Hinata, But don't hang me just yet! Humor me for the moment. Tell me they would not make interesting friends? Ever since I read the ShikaIno fanfic, Worth the Trouble by Prime Minister. I fancied these two if not as a couple than as a good pair of friends. Mostly cuz Gaara respects Naruto and in turn would respect Hinata who admires Naruto the most. AM I making sense here?
Anyone read that fanfic? I just giggled in delight when in chapter "In the Fray", Gaara threatened Shikamaru to let go of "Naruto's Woman." Shika's like, "I'm HER FRIEND, I'm protecting her (from you)." ANd Gaara's like, "Bah," *Sand coming to life* Until Hinata finally speaks up and is like, "No, no! It's true! He's my friend!" and Gaara chills out and checks on HInata to make sure she wasn't hurt in the last battle while mumbling, "I won't let anyone hurt Naruto's friends." And then when Hinata pats his hand saying she's okay, he gives a small smile. *squee!*
kk, that's an old fanfic, actually, (really good one) but still it planted a seed in my head so when I came across a Gaahina fanfic, woot! it flourished into this. Yay for crackpairings!
History and story behind the pic and its title is mentioned in the lineart
The title is from the song "Rain" by Breaking Benjamin. Very pretty soft song, didn't know it was them when I heard it. Thought it fit this pair.
Enjoy!
EDIT: I had to lighten it since photoshop is doing that weird thing again where it doesn't show me how super dark the pic actually is. The thumbnail makes this look really light, but the full view shows the colors the way I want them to look. (still a bit bolder than what I envisioned, but much better than it was before where the colors just BLED)
I think this pic had the most layers ever of all the pics I've colored. The last deviation I did taught me a lot about different coloring techniques on photoshop so I used them here with some color (instead of lighting). I'm not satisfied with the misty look it has. Mostly because I had to sacrifice one or two things in it and tried compromising but in the end, I'm not to sure I like her hair. LOL, the color looked better before i did the luminosity technique.
Hinata Hyuga and Gaara no Sabaku is copyrighted to whoever owns Naruto. X3

Beautiful!!
I never considered these two as a couple until I saw your art - but it makes SENSE!! YES!!!
Because they both don't speak much and they're both so PALE, besides Gaara with the bright red hair and Hinata's really dark hair...^^!!!!
They're so cute.

Ooou... Beautiful work! The colors all balance so well together - the white version didn't carry quite as much emotional depth to it and felt more ethereal than this one, if that makes any sense to you.
