Interesting that out of all of Rasa's children, Temari is the one who's the boldest, most willing to contest his decisions, and the one who's more averse to war (despite being rather cruel and sadistic in her own fights). Those are all good traits for a leader. It seems to me she should've been named Kazekage, instead of Gaara. Ofc the shinobi world relies on war, so I imagine a peace-loving candidate would not be selected, but Shippuden showing us Gaara as Kazekage implies that being "peace loving" is good and that now he's a good guy who no longer kills people. So really, it should've been Temari.

I always love the way they cherish each other no matter what, this relationship is more than perfect.

I’ve been traveling for work, and just got home. I started this while I was away and had every intention of working on it while flying but the turbulence was insane! I think it was left over air conditions from the tornadoes. Also took a little break from requests, but I’ll be back on them this week!

another piece i'm not a big fan of. this is the improved version that i edited on ibis paint. i got help from @servenna again this time 😁

the one under cut is the unedited, uncropped version (plus a bit of an explanation of what i did). i rendered shika's hand with care. i want people to see it so it doesn't go to waste (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

his arm should be angled/curved more towards us. i wasn't doing a good job with the perspective, and i didn't feel like fixing it because i had all the layers merged.

so to give an illusion that it was drawn correctly, i. cropped it out. HEHEH. (and angled it a little).

not only that, temari's expression was pretty underwhelming :/ i wanted her to look calm and at ease, but. of course it didn't turn out to be like the initial sletch. it's too plain!!! grrr

i darkened her eyes (thanks to venna's suggestion^^) with light gray on multiply layer and it improved a lot 😳 also painted over some minor corrections on her eyes; like shifting the highlight. she looks calmer now (⁠人⁠ ⁠•͈⁠ᴗ⁠•͈⁠)

honestly i'm kinda surprised that i drew shika's expression smoothly this time. pretty much everything was unbalanced except for that.
