Description Title comes from the poem The Road Not Taken . It's probably my favorite one.

This took about 2 hours to do, but I'm really pleased with it. I don't know when I'll do more pages, but I wanted to get this started before I lost the train of thought.

Panel practice ftw?

Hiashi and Hizashi (c) Kishimoto

Oh how sad and sweet! Poor Hiashi Hizashi give him BIIIG HUGS though and then grab his arm, march over to the academy, and demand to know why his super-awesome-uber-cool-better-than-your-stupid-kid twin did not get a hitaiate

I love the shading, and the mood is so very set well done, as per usual, Reggie-kins!

Oooh I like it! I think my favorite part is both the first panel because I love how the closeup of Hiashi looks with the bigger picture of him on the swing and Hizashi looks so happy in the second panel!! *cries* Why doesn't Hiashi get to be a genin with his brother?! I bet it's because he has to stay secluded to learn more secret stuff or because he's the head so they can't risk him being killed during a mission!! Love the gray tones used for this. gives it such a nice feel!

I really like the first panel. I do not know why, but it worked so well .

Pretty much, yep .

The grey tones are fun to play with, but it looks funny when I color it in color, because I have to do my highlights brighter and shadows darker .

The first panel just really pops out ya know? Like the whole closeup and then farther away view really makes it look cool!

*growls at the elders*

I've never really tried coloring a picture in grayscale before but I bet it'd be a pain with the highlights and shadows.

why he did not get a headband

ode2sokka In reply to mewmew223 [2009-12-20 04:11:38 +0000 UTC]

Because he isn't graduating. The details will be explained in the next few pages, but basically his father isn't going to let him be a genin with Hizashi.

It's probably my favorite besides the one that I can quote by Edna St. Vincent Milay.

My candle burns at both ends,
It will not last the night,
But ah, my foes,
And oh, my friends,
It gives a lovely light.

I really like the dynamics in this one. You really put a lot of effort into this and it shows.

Hiashi's facial expressions are perfect, I love the mood, and over all I am love it.

Can't wait for more

Comment!

I'm kind of ridiculously excited to continue this. I REALLY wish I'd thought to bring a pencil tonight T_T.

>_> Comment on the Christmas pictures! You have nothing else to do. Or, you and Maren could migrate and entertain me.

Don't suppose there is a pencil lurking back there, is there?

maybe. I will look. I will probably come visit you soon. It's too quiet up there for there to be good things happening.
