Blood Sand

Description

Hooray! My first Gaara picture! *laughs* I actually drew this one about a year ago and then found it recently and decided to finish it.

With this one I really took my time and tried to really focus on improvement. It was a lot of work but I am really happy with the end result.

The one tail was a bit of a pain though. The fur was a difficult color to get exactly right. (Just mix lots of browns and a bit of grey) ^ ^

Anyway I hope you all enjoy it.

Materials: Black pen and Prisma colored pencils.

That's just incredible, no other way to put it!

Lupi on November 25, 2007, 3:40:16 PM

I think the most amazing thing about this is that it's made with pencils and crayon, I mean... You see so much CGed stuff nowadays this has become rare. Lovely work. The medium drew out the sand's texture.

My favourite things would have to be Gaara's gourd and scarf though. They look freakin' awesome. Seriously, amazing work!

taintedlover on November 6, 2007, 7:56:39 PM

this is soo cool I love Gaara he's an awsome character and I love the way you drew him

CyberkittyKG on August 4, 2006, 4:27:55 AM

Wow, that's very nice...you've definitely improved since I last saw your work when I used to come to this site regularly (about a year ago I think). The composition is very dynamic, the light rays are very well done (I love how the light looks like it's filtering through the dust from the sand), and the contrast adds to the drama. But there is one little flaw: you didn't do a very good job in the defining the space between the racoon hand and Gaara's figure. Somehow that area looks very flat. I would suggest using shadow to create a sense of space; it seems as if the hand would cast a shadow on the gourd.

But anyway, the rest of the picture is amazing! Keep up the good work!

Kupo on August 3, 2006, 7:24:16 AM

OMG that is simply amazing. Awesome pic!

_Shadowfax_ on July 31, 2006, 4:58:59 AM

Amazing. Just Amazing. Like all of your art. I think you should do more Naruto pictures. Why? Because I said please.

Your choice, I'm just a huge fan of the series and faved practically all of your Naruto pics already.

Anyway keep up the excellent/amazing/stunning/etc. work. I am, as always, a great fan.
