Description "HidaShika" art request made by

Lineart done on July 17 '10, Photoshopped, edited, and colored on July 19 '10.

-----

Poor Hidan doesn't understand why Shikamaru's not happy.

H: ...You don't like ice cream?
S: I said rations! Preservable rations! Not solid liquid that's going to melt away in half an hour!
H: But why would we need preserved food anyway?
S: Because not everyone's a fucking immortal who regularly food-poisons himself and still be able to run around like a hyperactive Kyuubi!
H: *stares at Shikamaru confusedly, not understanding what the fuss was all about*
S: *facepalm* How the hell did I fall for someone like you?
H: My awesomeness? *grin*
S: ...*groan*

-----

I'm not good at drawing yaoi, yuri, or het, so this is about the best I can manage at the moment...Shikamaru's clothes killed me. No, scratch that, everything about drawing Shikamaru killed me.

The background drove me crazy and my finger feels like breaking into a million pieces from editing and coloring for over five hours, so I'm saying 'Fuck it.' to the trees. I might get back to it later someday. Someday. Maybe.


The backstory (yes I actually wrote a backstory for this) is that after Shikamaru dug Hidan up and decided that he liked him (and vice versa, or this pic wouldn't exist), Hidan didn't want to stay in a 'boring peace-loving' village like Konoha, so he was leaving. If Shikamaru didn't want to leave Konoha, then Hidan would be leaving him behind, because for the Jashinist, religion and freedom was more important than any sort of relationship.

So after thinking about it, weighing the sides and all, (and getting a massive headache in the process, it's not easy being too smart) Shikamaru decided 'to heck with it' and leave with him, choosing love over responsibility and loyalty to the village for once.

The two have been wandering all over the place ever since. As freelance ninja, they charge a lesser fee for their services to the civilians (despite Hidan grumbling that they didn't need the money and even if they did they could always just kill someone and loot the body, but Shikamaru insisted that he needed something 'normal' to do or he'd go nutters) so they've been taking on requests occasionally and sometimes bounty-hunting. For supplies they would go to the lesser villages where no one recognized them. Hidan is in charge of getting the food and Shikamaru handles the equipment. However, Hidan obviously isn't the best choice when it comes to shopping, as can be seen in the picture...

Shikamaru still wears his Genin clothes, while Hidan got himself a new cloak as he isn't Akatsuki anymore.
He has pockets now!

Hidan is eating a raspberry and blueberry flavored ice cream (the colors resembled splattered intestines to him when mixed, of which he got smacked by Shikamaru after telling him while they were eating), and the cone he got for Shikamaru is strawberry and chocolate.

XD

I actually said that to a few friends while out eating with them at a restaurant once, a few years ago. I got smacked for it. >_>;

lol Sure! Feel free to pry it off him XD Tell him Shikamaru would like him more if he walked around half-naked and he'd probably gladly hand it over. XDDD

I think it's really good~X///D
And also your story. I love that you made a story to it, makes more interestingX3
Yea I know what you mean, I'm trying to make something with HidaShika too, and Shikamaru is killing me...And Hidan too.

Aw, thank you!
The backstory came surprisingly easy after I was finished with the lineart, it just sort of struck me as how for once it should be the guy/girl from the village who leaves with the Akatsuki instead of the other way around, since for some reason all the fanfiction I've been reading had been doing it as the Akatsuki joining the village...or if it wasn't, it was the Akatsuki abducting the village ninja who at first was unwilling but after a while fell for them. So I decided that in this case, it would be the village ninja who leaves willingly with the (former) Akatsuki instead
And Hidan being Hidan...well, he doesn't really need normal food after all, he could just eat whatever comes along so I didn't really picture him as the type to care about stocking up on food. So ice cream it was.

lol Yeah, Hidan took me a while too, my first Hidan was...quite disastrous. After a few times though I gradually got the hang of it. But Shikamaru really killed me, I just couldn't get his hairline to look right. It also took me an hour of looking up Genin clothes on dA and Photobucket before I began sketching, erasing, more sketching, more erasing, and...well. Yeah.

Good luck with your drawing and thanks for commenting! Sorry if this is a bit tl;dr

You're welcome
Really I have never seen a fanfiction, about Akatsuki joining a village, but Aktsuki abducting a person, or the person leaving the village for own free will...Many times~X///D
I really hate the Genin clothes. It's so annoying(especially if you're a perfectionist and want it perfect).
As for Hidan.I have chosen him in a position that is very difficult to draw...For me

Thank you very much
No problemX//3

Really? I guess I've been looking at the wrong fanfictions then XDDDD
The Akatsuki joining a village, the one I can think of off the top of my head right now was one where Tsunade had someone (forgot who...I think it was Shikamaru or Sakura?) dig Hidan up because he was supposed to know something about the Bijuu, and after they dug him up he joined them and got sent off on a mission with Shikamaru, Sakura (I think), Temari, and Kankuro to some distant village where Hidan was supposed to have originated from but was destroyed (I think that was before the official character book with Hidan's background in it was released), etc. etc....it was a pretty great story, though I think the author has abandoned it, it hasn't been updated in a few years ;_;

Haha! I agree! Even drawing chibi Genin clothes drove me crazy, I can't imagine if I wanted to do a non-chibi Genin DDDD: *is also somewhat a perfectionalist (<--- OCD-tendencies xD)*

What kind of position? o.o
I have difficulties drawing two or more people together, like holding hands or hugging or kissing, etc...

On fanfiction.net, where I read most of my fics from ^^

Well...I have the latest character book, does that count? XD;;
I don't watch anime, I read the manga off the Internet and occasionally the actual volumes from a rental store :3

Thanks for the watch! x3

I see. what's it called?

Vol. 37 ch.334: The black transformation. Go 7 pages forward, to a page where Hidan says ''He can move agian''(P.s. the background is black) After the page, were Kakuzu's hearts come out from his back. I hope you can find it now~X///D

Thanks you too

Oh, you mean the one where Hidan holds a hand to his face? I have trouble with that pose too...I always get the arm bent all funny. ;;

Oh you started there...Then it's 6 pages, the one where he grab his shoulder, to stretch his neck or something like that.

OOOH! That one! Yeah, I can see how it can be tricky, I tried that pose once and ended up making my character look like a giraffe. O_o;

Well I'm still gonna try~X///D

Well, this would have never happened in the series, but since it was a request, I might as well make it as plausible as possible.
