I'll be honest. I totally hate Naruto because the fandom put me off. That adn I watched it when It first came out in Japan and found teh voices annoying XD

BUT IGNORING THAT FACT

I find it really well done, I like the collar on the shirt, because the small highlight really stands out. But maybe if you added a darker tone to the face and a harder brush to his shirt/top/coatwhatever to give it more depth and not looking so flat. Like under the arms and the stap holding his guad/sand thingy.

But seeing that you've done it by mouse as well. Big praise and cookies for you. well done ♥

Honesty is appreciated XD

I should've added more tones to the face but then I remember this character is only like 12 so I strayed away from a lot of tones on the skin XD; I was thinking about more textures throughout but then I got lazy _~_;;;;;

I really like it. Particularly since i could never make something like that come out good XDD

good job! :D

Gaara's lips look kissable. Otherwise, I know nothing about colouring. Though, I do love the effect on the sand... bottle (?)

XD yay pretty!~

the goard leather belt strap thingy came out really well! the way youve toned it makes it look used and weather beaten - like real leather!

andy colouring tute you do would be awsomely appreciated coz i only have PS + OptiM and srsly suck at colouring scans thus far :<

♥!

I would love it if you could do a coloing tut for this.

I've recently started my own attempts at manga coloring, and any help would be wonderful ^..^ Especially since this turned out so beautifully. I love the shading on Gaara, it's very realistic-looking(for a cartoon character).
