Description EDIT: The hair was bothering me, big time, so I made a new one. 

Okay, a bit glitchy, but overall, I'm satisfied with my progress here. 
See progress and explanation of what I did here: tourqeglare.deviantart.com/art…

Making this sort of thing a ludicrously fun, but the method and steps that I used is to actual computer animation like squeezing an orange on your forehead is to making orange juice. It works, but there has to be a better way to do it. 24.media.tumblr.com/4c8a96b2ca…

Some photoshop trickery was used here. Pokethrough was running rampart! upload.wikimedia.org/wikiversi…
Also, since I have yet to break this technique, like a wild horse, the bones and polygons weren't playing nice in some spots (HER HAND!) and I had to clone-tool some things over where there was severe tearing going on. I didn't touch the far off hand, so you can still see some tearing going on there. 

The techniques I used here, even if I used the proprietary Carrara (what the hell is a dds image file??) should still work in other programs if you want to try and give this a go. That is, if you know what I've been talking about. 

Anyway, Mel is an OC from the always energetic and awesome Captain-Paulo  
I don't think I like the hair prop that I used... :/

(The Gum Belle fanart with this technique is going to be a doozy!)

To quote a not-quite-crack Naruto fanfic:
