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! JB loves her crackpairings. Bad for you but addicting.

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.

GaaHina is pure awesome. Despite the crackish nature GaaHina is seriously cute and great for fanfics (I've wrote 5 of them already ; ).

Oeh, and I love this drawing as well!

lol, I'm so unoriginal when it comes to titles, But in this case, it was the first thing that came to mind because of the song I was listening to while I sketched it out. Thank you so much though! Must draw more now...

bombninjanaruto In reply to jbramx2 [2007-04-13 20:22:59 +0000 UTC]

While you were sketching this did the song you were listening to talk about rain or maybe it was rainy day perhaps ? (Maybe both) I look forward to seeing more of your artwork.

jbramx2 In reply to bombninjanaruto [2007-04-14 03:26:50 +0000 UTC]

*blinks*

Wait, okay. I see...

I was under the impression that you had read the description I wrote for this picture. Yeah..the title is a line in the song called "Rain" by Breaking Benjamin. The song's chorus is based on the lullabye and says, "Rain, rain, go away, come again, another day. All the world is waiting for the sun..." There are other lyrics in the song that made me think of these characters, but I figured this line would do for the moment, since its such an ANGSTY depressing picture. More info on the song is in the lineart link I provided in the picture's description. ^^

I think so too! Together they'd be Mr. Cynical and Miss Polite. And Naruto would be in the middle, as Mr. Loud.

My gods this is beautiful. I love the style and just the expressions and the colouring is absolutely gorgeous...

I've thought about this pairing in physical-eye-candy type and that it would be sweet, but never with this (Naruto's friends) brought to my (obvious) attention.

I'm now further curious about this pairing and the fic you mentioned.
