His name varies, depending on the story. In this picture, he's roughly 21. In his mouth is a chakra enhancer, similar to a ration pill. There's a story behind that, covered in my fics.
Ryouko here is a bit shy and intimidated when it comes to girls. When his eyes fall to Sakura, he immediatly believe he's outclassed and says nothing to her.
He's not your typical OC in that he's super-powerful, or especially unique. Whenever he gains an ability, I illustrate exactly how he earned that ability. For you FMA fans, there's always an 'equivalent exchange' when it comes to his progression.
Please take the time to comment on this, and/or on my fics. I take requests for romance fics (see my 'Naruto Couples' fic for details: http://www.fanart-central.net/story-54729.html).
PS: This pic is a year old, minus editing and touch-ups, so it's not a reflection of my current abilities.]]>Silver the human by Hybridurn:uuid:98cf7465-0a60-e1b4-260d-ca7c9d1a2aa82009-10-06T17:08:52-07:00A really really gay version of Silver. but done with pencils and shading and stuff.

I'm testing my hands/wrists out for the first time since my injury, so if this is worse than usual, sorry about that ^^' Anyway, please comment, as always :D]]>Sai (Gift for NPG) by nextguardianurn:uuid:b24e2d01-4784-6226-4f09-1e79c4c53ddf2008-07-25T00:13:36-07:00A gift for NPG after she made me this: http://www.fanart-central.net/pic-701458.html
See Sai in the background? Well, I was thinking about what he would say about Sakura and my OC about to kiss. If anyone wants to comment and say "I think Sai would have said ..." Please go ahead^^
At any rate, this pic was cursed. After the lineart (which went fine), my pen ran out of ink, my hand cramped up (the stray lines -_-'''), my black pencil just decided to randomly not color spots, and my scanner mangled it! Wow. My work is bad enough WITHOUT that stuff!
Anyway, lol, I tried NPG!
Comments?
Edit: You know, I DID color his face, too. Not sure why that didn't show, it wasn't super-light...
Edit 2: The dots all over the pic are marks from my scanner, for the record, not a failed attempt at a background, lol.]]>Finished- RyoukoXSakura kiss by nextguardianurn:uuid:b66c60e5-60b9-3553-9cab-6878a20b78be2008-06-28T18:45:04-07:00My final entry for Athanyell1000's contest. I'm not expecting any miracles (such as the first reported snowflake in hell, or an actual win, lol), but I kind of like this pic. Comments are appreciated, as always.]]>SakuraXRyouko inked by nextguardianurn:uuid:4aa2963f-d5e9-3dc6-56fc-298bc13d5a492008-06-27T00:00:52-07:00Same pencil sketch as I just posted, but now I've inked it. This is all actually for a contest, but before I'm done I'll have a background, and hopefully a color version.
NEW: I've noticed that few people comment on fics anymore. If you comment on my Naruto fics, I'll return the favor on pics, fics, and even help you advertise your contests (non yaoi/yuri or hentai). Also note that I may ask you 'what's your fav part', to see if you're actually reading ;)]]>RyoukoXSakura by nextguardianurn:uuid:b368156c-6b1d-92f6-ece0-758f53d9af502008-06-26T23:53:09-07:00My first try at drawing two people kissing.

In this one, there's a festival in Konoha. Up on a rooftop, either unaware or uncaring of the festivities, is my OC. Lee, in the dark, only sees his outline against the moon, and decides to attack, thinking him to be an intruder.
A little more detail, shading, and story telling in this effort. Still pretty rough, though. The house in the last panel, and the entire third panel, were the most fun to draw, while Lee himself was aggravating as hell, and STILL didn't come out right! Oh well, please comment!
Panel 3: (Speech- Lookin' good!) (Speech: Thanks, it's a new kimono!) (Speech: Lookit me, I'm ANBU!) (Speech: Cool!)
Panel 4: Lee: Gai-sensei was right! This is a splendid festival!
Panel 5: (Lee's thought: What? An intruder? I cannot let him disrupt the festival! I will fight him myself!)]]>Naruto- Rough Manga, Draft 2, Page 1 by nextguardianurn:uuid:ef187869-51bc-1a02-61e8-f1ae39c670cd2008-06-13T18:57:51-07:00My third try at drawing manga. This one took a little more time, and, as a result, has a little more detail. I'm not sure I like my OC's look with the chakra cigarette, I might go back to the mask. (btw, I do not endorse smoking. The cigarette my OC has is similar to a ration pill in effect.)
Things I know are wrong with this drawing:
Motion lines need work
certain shading needs work
lettering needs work
backgrounds need more detail
and other things that that vary by panel
Words:
Panel 1- Schwip
Panel 2a- CLAP
Panel 2b- Pwoof
Panel 3- tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk
Panel 4- The 'Dragon Boy'...Konohagakure's 'Jonin-in-Genin's-clothing...Impressive for someone with so little experience...However...
Panel 5- Glare
Panel 6- it was foolish of you to come alone. TSUKUYOMI!
THE BIG QUESTION- SHOULD I UPLOAD THESE IN A LARGER SIZE?]]>RQ (Finally Done) for Yotsuba by nextguardianurn:uuid:64d8a42a-ef7b-b3a2-c760-2292dd9b7b592008-06-10T19:37:50-07:00Okay, so this didn't quite work :\ I give the same effort on all my pics. I don't know WHY this one didn't work. In fairness, I'm not familiar with Megaman at all. Either way, I apologize for both the quality and how long it took to finish this pic. I contemplated coloring it, but I think the paper would have exploded or something -_-']]>Naruto- Rough Manga, Draft 1, Page 2 by nextguardianurn:uuid:7a5ff798-2c03-e658-6ca8-4cea2dea51f12008-06-09T19:35:09-07:00The second page of my series of rough-draft works. This one REALLY needs work, and was sketched pretty quickly. The first panel especially. I tried a variety of things, but nothing really worked. Oh well, I'll fix it eventaully!
So, what's happened here: My OC, Ryouko, stepped in the way of Sasuke's sword to save Sakura. The largets panel completely sucks, and needs work. But, rough draft, I can get away with it this time!
Dialogue:
Panel 2: (kof) (hack) (GRAB)
Panel 5: Ryouko-san...Y-you took the stirke? F-for me? Don't die! Please!
Panel 6: Sasuke...Never hit a lady...You spineless coward!

I KNOW it's rough, it's supposed to be. I haven't polished it, or added a story. I just wanted to see how I would do. Later, I'll fix it up and ink it. In the mean time, please comment!
Note: Reads right to left.
Dialogue (If you can't read it. Ignore the notes outside the boxes, btw. Just notes to myself)

Please check it out, and comment. I will most likely comment on your fics if you comment on mine. (All you others authors know it's hell to get comments!)
This pic is of the Hokage mansion, and is done in ink.

This fic follows the manga storyline, with my own ideas for filler arcs, and with the addition of my fan char. Comments on the fic and the pic are greatly appreciated. If you comment on my stuff (ESPECIALLY the fics), I will usually comment back and recommend your work to others.
PS: YES, I am aware that I colored the log differently. I liked it better this way.]]>Art Trade w/ Axel4Eva by nextguardianurn:uuid:7830d415-13ca-c692-91c8-19d071b918fe2008-04-23T01:26:45-07:00Sorry for the wait Axel4Eva! WHY this took so long is an interesting story. Between family getting sick, then me getting sick, followed by a semester from hell in school, things have been difficult. I hope this doesn't disapoint!]]>Sakura's Reflections by nextguardianurn:uuid:5de574f6-8ae4-b5eb-d46d-2a14dbcd441f2008-04-14T20:44:10-07:00My entry for Animeheikakashi's contest.
The top-right has writing, kind of supposed to be words from people that Sakura hasn't forgotten. The name "Kaguya Ryokou" is an OC of mine, for the record. Next to the names are crests (official and unnoficial) of each person's respective clan.
If you can't read the writing, it says "Believe" on top, then "In Yourself- Uzumaki Naruto", "You annoy me- Uchiha Sasuke", "In the 'Power of Youth' - Rock Lee", "You ARE strong. - Kaguya Ryokou", "You have talent- Hatake Kakashi", "Sasuke's mine, forehead :p - Yamanaka Ino", "In your Abilities! - Tsunade", and "WE'RE PROUD OF YOU! - Konoha"
Hope you like, please comment!
EDIT: All the writing here was done in ink (the hard to use pen kind), and the black around Sakura's head, and her full-body outline was also done in ink. I like the effect it gives to a drawing.]]>Ben 10 headshots by Kamaiurn:uuid:42777d52-6831-da69-0556-be07525894942008-04-02T13:32:38-07:00Hey I don't watch the show much, but I am totally pumped for the new season because to tell the truth..

Sorry for the wait Darkstar17! I did your original request (The avatar), but I thought I should apologize for being late. And who better to speak that good ol' Kakashi! As for flawed- I finished this after a month-long struggle, lol, and I forgot the Leaf symbol on Kakashi's hitai-ate! Oops! Oh well. Please enjoy anyway!]]>OC- Aleda by Kamaiurn:uuid:99d3ff15-ff5d-fc89-3fbe-e50feeb6a7d02008-03-14T06:57:44-07:00My OC, She's a harpie XD Please ignore the crappy background!

I was trying out ink again. This pic took a LONG time, thanks mostly to the editing I had to do when my scanner darkened areas of the pic. Guess I'd better clean the thing -_-'

His motto is "Live for Revenge." Another idea from the anime. Please comment. Again, I'm not sure if this one is worth really finishing either.
Edit: Crap, I forgot! This pic is for Keiko! I apologize for my lousy contest entry! I had promised that the next time I drew Sasuke, it would be a gift for you, after my miserable contest entry -_-' So, um, here's Sasuke!]]>Naruto- "Never Give Up" (Sketch) by nextguardianurn:uuid:7f1217e0-2024-b79e-234d-a6e91fbbe3ff2008-01-04T22:23:36-08:00A sketch I did of Naruto trying to do the "Transformation" Jutsu. His hands are lower than they were in his anime pose, but I liked how it looked, so I kept it. This is just a sketch, not sure if it's worth finishing or not.
Anyway, please comment!

Preview:
One by one, citizens in the Land of Herbs begin to disappear, a mysterious occurence for one glaring reason- the Land has no enemies. The land''s plants are used by every Village. Who is out to destroy the village, and why?
Three intrepid Leaf Villagers, Sakura Haruno, Rock Lee, and Ekyt are dispatched to end the crisis. But are the three talented Leafers enough to dispel the evil threat?
btw, the word cut off at the bottom is "Purpose".
Please note: The first three chapters of this fic are "Hell in the Land of Herbs I". There will be a "Return to the Land of Herbs" later in the series. There will be filler material in between, as a lot will need explaining.]]>For Cotf's Contest by nextguardianurn:uuid:8db60830-91ba-5f2c-3c82-b69543ed1df32007-11-05T17:12:51-08:00I did this pic for Cotf's contest.
