Naruto Illustration Book (2010)
This artbook contains commentary from Kishimoto on the illustrations of this book. Since I couldn't find the scans of the official English translation I'm posting some fan-translated.
Message at the beginning (black box):
Comments from Kishimoto-sensei
Explanations for each painting in the illustration collection
A comment from the artist as he reviews each illustration! Unknown stories about masterpieces are revealed!!
Message at the end:
Looking back at the pictures I've drawn up until now, I think I've been paying more attention to the details as I've gotten older. My touch has also become more precise. But I want to get better. Please continue to support me. -Masashi Kishimoto
