Description For the sake of posting -__-

Was it Gaara of the Sand or Gaara of the Desert? Can't even remember anymore...

Speed painting of Gaara. Possibly one of the baddest good guys ive ever seen. Im really glad that they did make him into a good guy. Changed his costume because I didn't really feel like doing alot of research. And as usual, a slightly older version.

Gaara ยฉ Masashi Kishimoto

lol! Kakashi's cool but he really isn't a favorite for me. I think its because too many people like him haha!

But who knows, maybe someday ill do a fan art of him

Actually, I've noticed Kakashi is not all that popular. There is of course, a following of fans. But I've noticed waaay more people who like Gaara instead.

The jounin of Naruto don't get much love.

Fan-freakin-tastic! The only constructive comment I could venture is that the ABSOLUTE BLACK around his eyes looks more just like... shadow here. Which probably fits your style much more than the Manga-ish way would.

Past that thought though... Yay, Garaa's all Tube-Manlyยฉ! The glow of his pupils is definately my favourite part, yup.

tubenose In reply to SAB-CA [2007-03-05 04:44:28 +0000 UTC]

haha how have you been SAB? I dunno, for some reason I always thought that those absolute black were very massive eyebags haha! Well, this was what I always thought about his eyes in a little more realistic way i guess.

Thanks man! haha i like that "Tube-Manly" phrase

SAB-CA In reply to tubenose [2007-03-05 05:03:20 +0000 UTC]

Been doing good, doing good. Saving moneh for an Xbox360... lol. ANYWHO!

Maybe Garaa has been ambushed by face-makeup-artist ever since he was a child, and they make up his face nightly, and noone ever told him, and he never looks in a mirror!

Tube-Manlyยฉ defines you just as much as BOLDยฎ!!

Amazing job...
I dont really know Gaara a lot... i just saw him in one of the 2 or 3 naruto episodes i saw in my life ... u know im a lot more into Dragon Ball LOL... but hell, i dont know if u r close to the original Gaara but i love ur version.

So many shadows make him look like a really dark character, does he really turn into a good guy? hard to believe...

I never felt satisficed with the final result when i tried to make something with so many shadows, trying to make it really dark, thats mostly why i really enjoy watching this drawing...

Inmediatly faved even if i dont know the character... that has to mean something good i guess

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

tubenose In reply to Belegurx [2007-03-04 22:39:14 +0000 UTC]

oh, if you like DBZ then you might also like Naruto since the creator is heavily influenced by Toriyama (The creator of DBZ). haha Im sorry if i spoiled it already for you, but yes he turns into a good guy later on

Shadows can be very tricky. With my speed paintings, I find it easier to place shadows all over first as the base colors then work with highlights.

Anyways, thanks alot man! appreciate the kind words

If possible, I wanted the background to have a sandstorm type of effect but that would have been too much work. lol!
