This timelapse is a bit messy but my goal was to record some of my rendering process to show the way I paint. It's not a tutorial but it might give an idea of how I push my pixels around.

The video starts after the rough sketch is already in place and then there's a BIG gap somewhere in the middle where I figure out all the trees and tentacles. I thought the face might be the most interesting bit to focus on anyway. The video is little over three minutes but the entire process probably took closer to six hours, not counting the looooong breaks.

There isn't a lot of color in this and I painted almost all of it with a gradient map adjustment layer on top of everything, colorpick set to "current and below". I start painting above that at the very end when working on the eye. Other tricks used in this is a tilt-shift blur filter to add some depth, a final color balance adjustment and a high pass layer for final sharpness.

He so sharp <3

off the shits no jutsu

heavy is the head that wears the naruto headband

Sakura still being even remotely in love with Sasuke or Naruto after the first few seasons is unrealistic. By the time we got to shippuden her feeling towards them should have been nothing but this

LOL man, obito's first meet up w his team as a kid was such a cringe fail. first thing he says is that he will be hokage one day. and theyre going to carve his sharingan eyes into the stone face that they'll add to the hills and then kakashi is like. well, do u HAVE a sharingan yet tho? and obito is like. uhhh. and then Rin throws in that w the goggles it will look super stupid to carve in the eyes cuz they'll look like they bulging out ADFSGFS. literally metaphorical face plant on first sight, young obito just CANT manage to make himself look cool for even one second

ninja exhaustion

i'm happiest when i'm with you

A new doujin! For @obito-week. Prompts: HOLE, teamwork.

"Having made the hardest decision out of love for the world and for him, you unknowingly molded me back into him who you loved."

A bit of tough, disciplining love that reshaped even the flames of the inferno into the tender warmth of a sunrise. Previous -> Treasure || Next -> Why worthless me?

wait ill post this here too

your honor you know how my client gets on sasuke saturdays

Bean incident.

What if... What if baby Kakashi accidentally acquired a favorite song?

Like... A pop song? The kind that gets stuck in your head and makes you want to dance? Like, maybe he got a little portable radio for his birthday? (very good gift since a radio can be used for keeping up to date with news and maybe even intercept coded enemy messages on a lucky day?) But then, one day he accidentally tunes in to a music station and gets exposed to whatever dance hit is at the top of the charts that day in the land of Fire, and that dance hit is immediately imprinted to the very core of Kakashi's little joy-deprived soul, awakening urges he never even knew ninjas could have, like: Humming? Foot tapping? Twirling?

Kakashi manages to discreetly obtain a recording of the cursed track and it's like a dirty secret now. Nobody can ever know. Ever! but whenever he's got some time alone he plays it. he plays his song. on repeat. and. he has to dance!

There is choreography to go along with the song, because all good pop hits have choreography and Kakashi discreetly obtains the means to copy and memorize the whole routine (the lead singer is really cute too but that's completely irrelevant is what Kakashi tells himself)

It turns out Kakashi is really good at picking up dance choreography because of course he is. He practices the steps to perfection in the safety of his home. Not even his ninken gets to see. They'd think he'd caught some kind of fever and they wouldn't be completely wrong. The obsession is very intense and makes him act completely out of character and it's all kinds of upsetting. Kakashi never intended for things to go so far and he's not sure how to turn back.

Then the nightmares start...

whose kids are those 👀
