Wtf, is simple amazing!

 

[sam034]

It looks great!

Especially since Fan art is hard and to make the characters look the same as Kishimoto's design, but you've done quite a good job.

Could you maybe elaborate a bit more about your thoughts behind this Fan art?

Thank you , I'm so glad I can share my expression of art with other Naruto fans ;DDDD;

Well, what do you want to know?

Well, what do you want to know?

Well, I can see the themes that are at play. Shikamaru's revenge (or justice), Hidan's madness etc. and of course kurenai's sadness and sorrow. However I think she a bit to eeehm.....what's the word I'm looking for, sexy.

If I would have made this piece of art I would probably chosen something that doesn't distract the viewer too much from the sorrow.

So, I thought that maybe there was a reason you did this.


btw, now that I'm looking at it for the second time. There are some things that are really well done. REALLY well done.

I.e. -The smoke which stands for Asuma's smoke (right?) which I didn't see the first time.

- The deer which almost look two dimensional-ish, because of this the painting gets a chinese or japanese wallpainting kind of feel to it.

- The rose petals which refer to the Kurenai's flower which died when Asuma passed.

The thing that I like least is Shikamaru's face, which I think isn't good enough comared to the rest of the painting.

Anyway this is one of the best Fanart art pieces I've ever seen. Props.
