   Getting Into The Story
I am starting to get into this Naruto story.
The fan art request included Naruto, Sasuke and Gaara, plus two other characters.
One of them will definitely have to be Sakura, for she is part of the team with Naruto and Sasuke. I can already imagine expressions on their faces: Naruto with a silly, self-confident smile, Sasuke with his serious "above the situation" expression and Sakura with half-worried look, a little behind these two.
I am still not sure about Gaara. I'll have to read more manga before I get into his character. I cannot simply draw face, without getting into the character himself (can you imagine Sesshoumaru in my "Sesshoumaru & Kagura" fan art smiling or even blushing - IMPOSSIBLE! I even thought the request was a little daring, since Sesshoumaru is not a "romantic" type, and although I accepted the request, I still had to keep his character, otherwise it would simply not be him).
It's the same with Naruto characters. I don't want to simply draw characters requested and randomly add two others, without getting into the characters and the story.
Therefore I am still unsure who to add as the fifth character in my fan art, but you can be sure that it will be someone connected with the characters, drawn so that it makes sense to add him/her to this particular group.
I am also wondering about the requested fire swords (or something flaming) they are supposed to be holding. It simply doesn't seem like a type of weapon they would use. I will have to make it look natural somehow. I have a faint idea how to do it.
It might seem to you that I am giving it too much thought. I could have done the request by now. But, I don't think my art would be any good without considering all these facts.
Therefore I must ask all of you who eagerly await my next fan art to have a little patience and on my side I promise to do the best I can. :)
