Art Post: Caress (SasuNaru, PG, yaoi-ish warning)

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

For the record: I adore Sasuke/Naruto (or Naruto/Sasuke, either way) and Kakashi/Iruka... If you're offended by yaoi/shonen-ai, please don't click on the link.


Title: Caress
Artist: red_rahl
Rating: PG
Character/Pairing: Naruto/Sasuke
Warnings: Strongly implied familiarity/intimacy between two males. (Prelude to yaoi.)
Notes: Done in pencil, scanned, inked in photoshop. I can't seem to break from the clean lines and black and white for my Naruto drawings. Ah well.
-In this picture, they're both older. I'm really fixated on a more mature Naruto and I use Yondaime as my point of reference for drawing him. As for an older Sasuke...I have no idea how his hair should go. Ah well.
-Of the two boys, I believe that Naruto would be way more affectionate and demonstrative of that affection (to compensate for the lack of love in his childhood). And Sasuke wouldn't mind that at all. (After they've both accepted the whole in-love-with-your-best-friend-who-happens-to-be-a-guy thing, of course...)

I have no ships, but I loooooooove Sasuke and Naruto. And you're really good.

damn but that is a sweet picture.

Mmmm, yondaime. . . . . <3

Eee! Yondaime-esque Naruto is muchos hot.
On the subject of Sasuke, me and some friends are of the opinion that his hair will still be short, but longer so that it's a sort of "Floppy Rooster" (If you can visualize that). I suppose it would be long enough for the back of his hair to go back into a small-ish, broom-brush ponytail with his long bangs in front :3

Mmm...

Wow, this is gorgeous! I'd love to see more of your art, especially SasuNaru ^^

[euphorize.livejournal.com]

That's hot. Your style of drawing is so realistic. So much love for my OTP... *happy sigh*

oh... i love your clean lines.... :) by the way, how do you ever ink with photoshop? don't you have to outline the whole thing over again? :) cuz if you do, damn. that's annoying...

[goodbye--kitty.livejournal.com]

oooh that is so good! I love it! its just so perfect. probably, as mentioned before, because of your clean black and white style. awesome

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

Oh thank you! ^_^ I do adore the boys (though I'm more biased towards the blondie). I'm glad you liked the picture and yessss....Yondaime. See, Naruto is going to look like him when he grows up and damn, that's HOT!!!

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

Thank you. ^_^ I seem to do that a lot for Naruto fanart. O.o So glad you enjoyed the picture!

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

I agree with the whole Naruto-looking-like-Yondaime cuz that's hot. XD

And as for Sasuke, that's an interesting thought. I can't wait to see what Kishimoto has done to him in the intervening years. But a ponytail? An interesting thought!

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the artwork. I'm sure there's more SasuNaru/NaruSasu to come in the future from me. XD

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

AHahah. I agree with the OTP, even though one of the boys is being a complete ass at the moment. O.o

And I'm so glad you enjoyed the picture. ^_^

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I like the clean lines too, a big departure from my previous artwork. And yes, you do have to retrace the lines again, often altering/completely changing a section, and it does take a long time but I like the final product. ^_^

[red-rahl.livejournal.com]

^_^ Thank you so much. I'm digging the clean lines and black and white as well. So glad you enjoyed the picture.

[shigeruhiko.livejournal.com]

Naruto is hot. Period. (I'm rather partial to blonie myself, how can you NOT love him?)

I love spastic guys. XD

Yondaime. . . mmmmm
