Description Yay, sketches, done on Manga Studio though. X3 Felt like drawing a semi-realistic Gaara and Hinata. Rather happy with this. Reminds me of my old style, but much better.

Got inspired when I read a fanfic describing Gaara meeting up with Hinata many years after he's become Kazekage and Hinata noticing how tired he looks. That just made me go "awww! ;o;"

And so I had to draw an adult Gaara, looking handsome and then his eye looking tired but still sharp. XD And then I had to draw an observant and very pretty hinata.

May it be known that i hate bangs, least the straight cut ones like Hinata's. I can never get them right or look nice. But slowly but surly, by continuing to draw Hinata, I'm getting the hang of them. So I'm very happy with how Hinata turned out here. And yes I had to draw the crying emo Hinata as well.

As for that middle pic...THEY'RE FRIENDS I SWEAR! He is NOT going to kiss her. Yes, I know Hinata looks like she wants to be kissed, but no! She just finished crying, see! I come up with little stories inside my head as I'm drawing. Anyone else do that?

Here Gaara and Hinata have become very close, with Gaara offering her some words of encouragement in dealing with Naruto. Lord knows Hinata needs patience when dealing with the blond boy. ANd yes, I made Gaara touchy-feely. BLASPHEMY! You may all hang me now. I give you permission, only because in my little world here, Gaara has a secret cookie crush on Hinata. Alas, poor boy, can't win even with the pointy Kage hat. XD;

But to show that I haven't completely destroyed Gaara's character I also drew him looking scary. Well...as scary as JB can draw a guy looking. I'm still pleased with how he turned out, I think this one's my most realistic of all. The difficulty with Gaara is putting expression on him. He has no eyebrows! Eyebrows are how I express emotion! So wrinkles on his brow and angle of his eyes will have to do.

Speaking of emotion, YES, I can draw EMO!Gaara as well. Tis kinda embarrassing how emo/dramatic he looks here, but I figured if Hinata will look emo crying, than Gaara shall look super grief stricken as possible. Be grateful I didn't draw him crying. THAT would've been embarrassing. XD

I dunno, you can also look at it as if he's got a headache. He tended to get those a lot. XD;

Next to emo!gaara, I drew a curious Gaara with a neutral Hinata. Again, his lack of eyebrows make me wanna hurt him. So hard to express any kind of emotion. I ended up with a slightly humorous expression on his face here. I like his hair the best here. He's kinda cute. Not very gaara-ish though...

ah, almost forgot, WINDSWEPT!Hinata! couldnt' resist. So happy she has long hair now. I'm rather pleased with how her face turned out at that angle. I'm still working on her neck, but I'm happy with her face.

I'm not sure if I will ever color them...but *sighs* I just felt I had to draw them.

I've noticed something interesting about gaahina fanfics. X3 People never put Naruto in them. It's either Hinata got her heart broken by him or she gave up on him, or she was sent to Suna without confessing her feelings to him, and THEN she gets with Gaara and later falls in love with him.

or Gaara finds her and its as if Naruto never existed. *sweatdrop*

HELLO! How is it that people have not touched on this? I'd like to see a little demon-host rivalry play. I think it'd be cute. XD; If the sasuhina fanfics touch on sasuke competing with (sometimes oblivious) Naruto, why not the gaahina fanfics? No one ever writes gaara competing with Naruto. Like they're afraid to put these two at odds or something. That'd make for a pretty interesting read if you ask me. The two future kages fighting over the hyuga princess! Woot! there's a konoha special inquirer's headline. XD;

alright, I'll shut up now. If I wasn't already working on my RK and Shaman King fanfics, I'd go and write me a gaahina like this, but no. sorry. I'll just sketch up stuff.

This is actually pretty good. One doesn't have to draw the characters looking exactly like how Kishimoto designed them, so long as the basic appearances come through in the "translation" into your basic style. It's how I do things in my own art.

I kind of like scenes like this, too. They put a lot more into a story than just drawing one scene.

Your use of MangaStudio has me licking my chops here. Although I have it, I don't have the graphpad that would make it useful as an exclusive tool for drawing. Presently, I plan on using it to spice up scanned traditional drawings and finishing them as comic pages before trying what you did here (drawing straight on the workspace as MS3's instructions suggest can be done).

Good show!

Lovely sketches.

(And no, I don't think it's weird at all to make up stories in your head as you draw. It's what makes the picture have that extra layer underneath instead of just being pictures with no purpose ^^)

I love the pic, it's amazing! You draw Hinata and Gaara so well! So, you want to see a fanfic with a little demon host rivalry, huh? I'm glad I discovered this pic when I did then, because I believe I have just the fan fic for you. The fanfic is called "Wild Roses" and so far, it's been one of the most well written GaaHina fics I have ever read. Here's the link to it if you're interested in reading it:

[link]

And if you do read it, please do leave a review for her, she loves those and if it's not to much trouble, let her know that AlexiaWinters (my ff.net pen name) told ya about the story. She'll know who you're talking about. Hope you read and enjoy it.

Wai, thank you!

It's so funny that you mentioned this, cuz a little while before you commented, I had just updated my Gaahina journal with this story. She just updated today, so I had to celebrate by putting up in "Crack Pairing" Journal Entry.

It really is a lovely fanfic! Hinata's so sweet in it! ;o; Gaara's cool and mellow too. I really dig it. I'm totally looking forward to it. Thank you so much letting me know though! I love reading gaahina fanfics so if I miss any, don't be afraid to let me know about it. I really appreciate it! I'll definately make sure to leave a review for her. I had before I think, mostly me telling her to not abandon it...XD;; Thank you! I'll let her know. XD

JadeLiChen In reply to jbramx2 [2007-02-21 14:35:35 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome.

I honestly believe she's done the best fanfic for this pairing that I have seen so far. Alot of the other ones I've read, besides doing the whole thing by not touching on the demon host rivalry thing, she actually has the characters in character! That's important to me mainly because in the other GaaHina fan fics, for some very strange reason I don't know, the writers feel the need to turn Gaara into a rapist, have him rape Hinata, and then she falls in love with him.

I mean I know the dude has issues, but I seriously don't think he'd do that, even if this is a crack pairing!

And she told ya not to abandon it? You wouldn't happen to be the one named pringlebunny she mentioned in the latest chapter, would ya?

jbramx2 In reply to JadeLiChen [2007-02-21 22:11:45 +0000 UTC]

oh no, no! I told her "You better update this please!" I'm not pringlebunny, My name is the same on Fanfiction.net too, Jbramx2 I'm so unoriginal....

Aww! while that's true for a lot of gaahina fanfics, its not all of them! LOL, yeah, I tire of that cliche with them. HE's NOT ALWAYS A MONSTER! If he's not raping her, he's scaring the crap out of her or abusing her. Whatever, must come from when he first shows up on how he feels the need to kill everyone around him, cuz he thinks everone's weak. ~~;

Here lemme get you my list of recommendations...*cackles* My CRACK PAIRING of DOOM! . This was the list I was telling you about. I just put her fanfic up last night. XD I update it anytime I find a kickass gaahina fanfic. XD The majority of these have a mellow, non-violent, or un-willing Gaara. XD; For example "Like Heaven" has a totally un-willing Gaara. It scared me at first cuz I thought he was really really gonna hurt/kill her, and the whole time you're thinking, waaah! poor Gaara! oh the angst! ;o; But then what Shukaku ends up having him do is so unexpected it cracks me up. From then on, its Gaara having to run away from Hinata as a result of that.

lol. Ah, okay, just had to be sure. And thanks for the list, you had some real good ones on there! I think I liked "Red Velvet" and "Like Heaven" so far. I just wish they would update. Still, I think "Wild Roses" is my number one favorite thus far.

Wow, I love your drawing of Hinata. She's so pretty and has a more feminine flair to her and angry Gaara *heartthrob* I've noticed that too, but sometimes I don't go into it much because some people like to draw out love triangles and it gets tiresome afterall... The authors save the triangles for a Sasuke/Hinata/Gaara. Why Sasuke? I dunno... Maybe it would be a lot harder to imagine Naruto fighting Gaara, who he identifies with as a rival in love. It would be a hard one to put together while keeping them in character...Why am I rambling on about this?

Er, it would be so awesome if you could make a pretty pretty pic specifically Gaa/Hina, you don't see any good ones now adays. chibis are cute and all, but sometimes you just want a little more detail. It would be so wickedly awesome >_<

Waii! *loves your chibi Gaara icon*

hee hee, yes, I like to remind people that HInata can definately grow up to be a beauty. XD

*nods nods* yeah, I figured that was why. Gaara and Naruto make better friends than enemies/rivals. LOL oh no, keep rambling on, you make very good points. ^o^

aw! pretty pretty? like, what do you mean? *did an angsty pretty gaahina pic in her gallery...you didn't see?* Oo;

But yes, I agree, there needs to be more pretty Gaahina pics. hell, just more gaahina pics please!

waii, you're so cute! ;o;
