Coooooloring
My love for coloring has yet again emerged after nearly half a year of not doing any srs coloring. FEAR ME. D:
So I asked Kai-puu if she wanted me to color anything because I was totally out of ideas. And then she asked me if I could color Minato. Eh, the Minato from the latest chapter. I said, yes.
... While whining that I was probably still very shitty when it came to coloring the kind of hair Kishimoto-sensei, and lots of other shounen manga artists, did. I mean, wtf is the matter with them? Could they not add some more hair lines or something?
Admittedly, I am aware that we should be more focused on the actual action than the gracefulness of the art and all, since Naruto is, after all, a fucking shounen manga.
But this does not stop me from complaining. Not at all.
So, um, here I present to you Minato. And how I managed to kill his good looks. D:
(And no delicious Photobucket/Flickr/HostedoutsideElGay picture for yoooou.)
Also, if you are curious as to how my coloring suckery will look like if there were more details in the hair, do look at Spaaaain. And if this isn't Spain, don't worry. We could always call him Suzaku. :| Or "that guy I really messed the coloring of."
If there is one thing I feel proud of, it is how I managed to color the eyes. Everything else, eh. Is, eh. Eh.
Also, to anyone who reads this, it'll also be cool if you left behind a book recommendation. It'd be cool if what you left behind was humorous. Or a romcom. Or something about, I don't know, mythical/mystical/legendary creatures.
... Pimping your own book or work of fiction - fanfics, unfortunately, are not what I'm looking for this time around - is also very much allowed. ♥
