Hey! About the drawing ideas for Kakuhida... Maybe Kakuzu comforting Hidan after a panic attack\really vivid nightmare?

I'm here, it was just a nightmare.

Hey! You once said you began with traditional art. What were the feeling when you began doing digital art? How do you got used to drawing on a screen, not on paper?

Oh, to be honest, I don't remember my first impressions, because the first attempts dated back to around 2014, and naturally I didn’t just understand how to draw in the program, but I didn’t know how to draw at all x) And although I began my acquaintance with digital drawing a long time ago, for various reasons I had a lot of breaks when I threw it all away and drew only on paper. More or less tightly for digital drawing I took up the year in 2017-2018, but even then I had periods of 1-2 months when I drew on a tablet, and then again something broke, and I returned to sketchbooks.

As for the second question... I'm still not entirely sure that my digital drawings are as unique as those made on paper. Yes, drawing on a tablet (I use those simple ones where you draw on them but look at the computer/laptop screen if smth) is easier in many aspects, and yet I have been drawing on paper for a very long time and, again, since 2017, a lot. I draw very few full-fledged works, but I usually do quite a lot of sketches, and I still think that my sketches on paper look more lively than digital ones. Simply because the pencil is more familiar to hold, and the tools have a natural texture (paper is rough, lead is soft, etc.). Оn the other hand, lately I have been drawing more often on a tablet, because I do not always manage to picture what I want on the first try - I have to constantly adjust and redo something. And on paper it's just harder to do.

Hope it was useful or at least interesting to read x) Have a nice day~

Hey! Do you know any sites to watch shows like The Owl House and Infinity Train? I am from another country and it's hard to find a decent way to watch these from here. Thank you from now!

I’ve been using wcostream.com! I’ve used it for years now and it’s never given me any trouble, and it has a long list of animes AND cartoons. That said, I honestly dunno if it works in other countries.

(Part 1/2) I've created I technique named Kanzen Kaihō. It works based on seal techniques, but instead of sealing chakra, the user draw two "seals" on their palms with their bloood and do the necessary hand signs, the jutsu make the user exhale chakra from their body, like an aura that, in contact with nature energy, the element of the user around their body (If it's a fire user, their body would be surrounded by fire) and the user can manipulate it.

(Part 2/2) The strengh of the element outside depends on the user quantity of chakra, and how well they will control the element depents on their hability to dominate chakra. When the technique is no longer needed, the user need to do the hands signs in reverse order to deactivate it. While using, the user can't use normal jutsus. It can be used on all elemental liberations, except Doton. I wanted to know your opinion on it, and how I can develop this jutsu. Thanks from now!

So, I’m not entirely sure why the drawn seals are needed?  I think that it would be something done with just basic hand seals.  But, in order to do this technique the user would probably have to have an INSANE amount of chakra and pretty much perfect chakra control on any level of usage.  For example, someone with poor chakra control with a fire aura around them could easily lose control of it and cause harm to themselves and others.  For this reason, I think that almost any village would consider this a forbidden technique.

Do you ever think that Sarada got bullied or a little secluded for being, you know, Sasuke's daughter and Itachi's niece? Sasuke was a criminal who tried to destroy Konoha, and Itachi were the one who killed all the Uchiha Clan, both former members of a terrorist organization. Even with Sasuke changing and telling all village(s) the truth about Itachi, their clan has a long and dark fame that's not easy to simply forget.... And kids and adults can be very mean when they fear something.

Hi Karim! It's always so lovely hearing from you! 💚

This topic is actually really interesting, since you've brought it to my attention. I'm gonna throw my thoughts in and hope Tumblr doesn't destroy the formatting! 

To start, I think it would be an interesting possibility that Sarada would have faced some form of bullying due to her lineage- even if that bullying is passive aggressive or behind her back. If Boruto had an atmosphere closer to the original Naruto series that would be something the audience would see Sarada live with, in my opinion. 

I haven't actually watched enough to know much about the new series, but it seems to take itself less seriously from what I've seen? So canonically, she may not face much in the way of bullying or harassment for her heritage. I think it would add to the plot if Sarada, Sakura, and Sasuke did though.

The Uchiha clan should be a huge mixed bag in terms of the public opinion as far as I'm concerned. 

I think the reveal of the Uchiha clan's plan to stage a coup d'état to overthrow the Leaf Village would have deeply damaged public opinion despite it being in the past, and it being brought to light by Sasuke. Not to mention, no matter what Sasuke's done to redeem himself there is still bound to be people who distrust or deeply dislike him being a part of the village again.

For a civilian, or even shinobi with an identity entwined in the pride and loyalty in their village, I could see a massive struggle and effort to separate the actions of the past Uchiha clan and Sasuke's past from the identity and lack of connection to the new generation (Sarada/Sasuke/Sakura). 

People can also be stubborn in their beliefs as well, which I think would prompt some Leaf Village citizens to just lump Sasuke and Sarada in with the ideals and resentment of the former Uchiha. Generalization, distrust, making excuses for misinformed opinions? I could see it. ('Making the scandal public is the perfect misdirect to strike us as soon as we turn our backs', 'Once a criminal, always a criminal', 'Disloyalty runs in their veins', 'Sasuke and Itachi were prodigy shinobi- Sarada is nothing compared to them', etc).

Sasuke being mostly absent from Sarada's life could make any bullying she faces worse as well, be that kids being cruel because 'your dad regrets you enough to use missions to get away from you', or adults spreading rumours or conspiracies ('The massacre was a willing clan sacrifice to grant Uchiha Itachi his power', 'If you get too close to her she'll stab you in the back some day, it's just what they do', etc), or isolating her through avoidance and keeping their kids away from her.

I don't think the OG Leaf teams or their kids (InoShikaCho, KibaShinoHinata, etc) would hold anything over her or Sasuke's head though, especially with Naruto being such a huge influence and beacon of forgiveness in their lives surrounding Sasuke and his journey of orphan-prodigy-rogue-redemption. I also don't think they would take any crap if they witnessed Sarada being harassed or bullied.

I don't know jack about Boruto, but I think the concept of Sarada facing and overcoming some kind of discrimination or mistreatment like Naruto and Sasuke had would really add to the story and Sarada's character building imo. Having the opportunity to see her come into her strength and bloodline would be a treat, especially if it was to defy the opinions of the ignorant.

Hey... What do you do when you want to draw for a fandom but dont know what exactly to draw? I really want do to some Saint Seiya stuff but I'm here dying cause I don't know what stuff to do.?)

For me, I like to pick out a general theme idea at random (ie: couples, eating, reading, traveling, trying on clothes, etc) and then I search a stock photo site to get ideas for different poses and interactions. If you want to make it a little simpler, just drawing a single character in an interesting pose is a good way to get warmed up, and stock photo sites also have a ton of reference material for that, useful for when I’m blanking on something fresh. Otherwise, I find going back to the source to rewatch/reread/etc is usually pretty good for inspiring some new ideas (bonus points if you have a friend to bounce them off of, but def not necessary). Looking at other’s art can be helpful too, though you obviously don’t wanna straight up copy anyone else’s ideas, that’s more about generally getting inspired. I’ve been browsing pixiv a lot again lately in particular for SS for that reason :> Hope any of that was helpful, and good luck!!

Don't worry Susie! You'll get better at that stuff-

* Because I really feel like kicking it’s ass.

Hey... What if Hydes play a instrument too? I really imagine he playing or a very melancholic or a very aggressive and fast song!

Well, Eddie usually doesn’t play instruments, but when he does-
