Break Away

This piece took me way too long to do.  Just the line art took me 5 days of on-and-off working, editing, and adding.  I originally drew only Sasuke, but then as a last minute whim addition, added naruto, and then spent my days editing the line art to be a bit more of what I wanted, but my stupid amateur hand didn't draw for me the first time around.

In any case, after many versions of this, including different potential colorings of this, I finally reached a finished product.  I probably could have worked on this a little more, but I have a lot of other things to do with my life, and I unfortunately have to reserve time for my final projects too.  It's good to get this done, though.  Glad to have a GOOD Naruto fan art in my gallery now.  I was beginning to seriously question if I had it in me to actually draw the characters right  lolol.

And has anyoen else noticed how I included Kakashi, Sakura, AND Akatsuki in this (in hinted, subliminal ways, but they're purposefully there!)  I love fun pieces like this.

I also have a wallpaper version of this available:  http://lauraneato.com/l/myartwork/100themes/BreakAway-wallpaper.jpg

And, ahhhh I love how paperdemon always gives a nice beautiful black border to each image.  Looks so good <3
