well, now that i look at it, kanky doesn't look to bad. but he DOES have obvious pencil-lines on his clothing. i hate shading clothing. and gaara....i'm not good with ears. at least, not in a profile view. i can do 'em from head on. but i LOVE his hair LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. i had decided to make a realistic sketch of the two of them from a sketch i had done earlier and not inked. i realized quickly that i had never done short hair, let alone short spiky hair. but, i think i did a pretty good job on it. unlike my cg stuff, the hair is probably the best part. because i'm good at hair. if i had a tablet i'm sure my cg hair would look a thousand bajillion times better ;-;. but i don't, i have a crappy mouse. so i don't have the precision control that i need to do hair.

okay, so why this? i was sitting in my room, bored out of my mind, and i said, "I wonder what would happen if I took an anime sketch and turned it into a realistic one?"
first of all, THE APOCALYPSE.

i'm kinda pleased with this though, so i guess it's okay >_>


shit, i almost forgot
