Although Shikadai's canon look is perfect as it is, i love how he has Temari's eyes T.T what if whenever his hair is down his bangs also kinda resemble Temari's when she was young (the m looking shape) or even just simply the brushed to the side but still spiky look when she's older?
Yeah
Can you please share some tips on face positions? And how to do poses?
I start drawing faces the same exact way every single time: a circle and the crosshair to indicate facial direction. Then I sketch out the emotion like SUPER messy and I clean everything up in my sketchy/lineart phase
As for poses...it really requires you to have an understanding of anatomy and how things go...I start off EXTREMELY gestural and sketch to get the flow of the pose down...and then just clean up and make adjustments from there. Also the complexity of the pose changes the level of detail I include in the sketch. But this is the general gist
I don't know how to explain it, but a lot of my anatomy is intuitive to me...bc I've spent years practicing and learning anatomy that a lot of it I can see in my mind's eye and I don't need exact guidelines anymore, like when I first started learning. The sketch is just to get the overall layout/silhouette down. Of course, my anatomy is not perfect, and if I need to do more complex poses, I use references.
Excuse the question, but what's the thing you like the most about each of the sand sibs? Like your favorite thing about them. I apologize if the question seems weird, but I just came across a bunch of Sakura stans hating on Kankuro, cause they're pissed that he's the one who got to fight Sasori in the war arc, cause they think he's unworthy or smth, and that Sakura has a deeper bond with Sasori, and that she's the one who should've fought him. I needed to reassure myself, that I'm not the only person in this fandom who likes Kankuro. Like, he gets so much hate from everyone, for everything he does. Like, he could just breathe, and there's already tons of people wishing for his character to literally d*e, which hurts me deeply, cause he's a comfort character of mine, and it literally triggers my anxiety everytime I see people hating on him. You don't hate Kankuro, do you?
You sound young, so I’m going to give you some advice: don’t put any emotional real estate into the opinions of others, especially with regard to fictional characters. Honestly, who cares what they think? That should not affect your enjoyment of media. Enjoy your stuff and ignore everyone else. If someone hates your fave character then use the block button and toss them aside, don’t get too emotionally invested, it’s a waste of energy. People who spend that much time spewing hate for a fictional character rather just enjoying what they like aren’t worth your time or attention anyway.
No I don’t hate Kankurou, he’s one of my favorites, seeing as I’m a Sand Siblings stan account and fan artist lol. He’s driven, ambitious, responsible, fiercely loyal, but keeps a fun laid back attitude.
This is my analysis of the decision of having Kankurou fight Sasori. It’s my opinion and based on my interpretation and that’s it.
Sakura’s fight with Sasori was iconic. It was a incredible demonstration of her talent, strength, and wit in her debut battle of the Shippuden series. But Sasori’s entire history lies with the Sand. The emotional aspect more involved Chiyo, his grandmother and caretaker, rather than Sakura herself, though she did partake in it. Sasori encountering Sakura again doesn’t really offer emotional closure, in my opinion, because she had already killed him, she had already released him in death. Sasori fighting Kankurou again in the 4th war, however, had the goal of giving BOTH Sasori and Kankurou closure. Kankurou for losing his first battle with Sasori by demonstrating his own growth and dedication to the Puppetry craft and Sasori for losing sight of what he loved during his life and to relearn his passion for the craft by witnessing Kankurou. He passed on, leaving his most prized puppets and the future of Puppetry to Kankurou, whom he deemed worthy.
Can i ask you about how you draw aged up!Boruto? like, are there any specific headcanons or indications you keep in mind or? (i love it, obviously, and was just curious). thanks!
haha not particularly, I pretty much follow what's given to us in canon already but here are some notes??
Which of Temari's outfits do you like best? I think my favorite is the one she wears from the start of shippuden, the black yukata one with the red belt.
omg I love all her outfits…but I think my faves are these two
OK WAS ANYONE GOING TO TELL ME SHIKA MEANS DEER OR WAS I JUST SUPPOSED TO FIND THAT OUT ON MY DUOLINGO KATAKANA LESSON
😭I thought that was common knowledge
Ino > pig
Shika > deer
Cho > butterfly
that’s why their motifs are a pig, deer, and butterfly
Shikamaru NARA is a reference to Nara, Japan, known for their deer
The Nara clan oversees a forest full of deer
Hey Pandy. I have this interesting thought and since you're really good at keeping these characters Canon-level, I think you'd be the best for giving input.
Shikadai used wind style with just his hands on the windmill and it reminded me of when Baki demolished the proctor using his Blade of Wind without using hand signs, like he just summoned it. And since Shikadai was able to do his own wind technique, he obviously learned it from Temari without the fan. And it got me questioning what else can Temari do and can she mimic any wind techniques without it. And it led me to this interesting thought.
What if Temari uses the fan for not just as a reliance, but as a distraction. By relying on it, it puts on a front that she can only fight for as long she has her fan and catches them off guard as wind starts swirling around them at a gradual rapid speed. Kinda like, "You puppies think you did something? That fan only weilded mercy. Now let's get serious and start having some real fun!" And goes all feral and takes them out in seconds.
Something I noticed in sand fights is they favor trickery. They go easy to see their opponents abilities and strike when they start getting comfortable or seen enough. And I notice they all have feral sides when they have "the look" (dilated eyes and wide beast-hunger smile) and even Shinki had it. Sands are real savages. Must be in their culture or DNA lol
Sorry, I feel I'm doing too much
Haha, I think like most ninja tools, Temari’s fan serves to amplify her techniques. Most people can produce a simple Kamaitachi (e.g Mitsuki) with out the use of a fan. Shikadai, too, can produce smaller scale wind techniques. And we’vr also seen it in other cases as well throughout the series. But applying the jutsu through the fan is like speaking through a megaphone, just makes it Bigger and Louder and increases the range. Which is why Shikadai could do the Sea Dragon technique with Temari’s fan, but techniques like that are likely not possible, or at the very least very difficult, to perform on a wide scale without a medium to conduct it. But yes it certainly does act as a nice distraction too haha
PANDY! How we feelin about the 1st chp of Sasuke Retsuden? What are your thoughts??
it looks fun so far!!! I like seeing the return of a kishimoto-esque style. ALSO SHIKAMARU MADE AN APPEARANCE LOOK AT HIM
