Been wanting to draw a two tailed Naruto piece for ages- infact I did a sketch months back (it was totally different though) after I first read the manga but never got to finish it. I couldn't resist having another shot though because I'm really excited about the upcoming Shippuuden episode.

I've been working on this occasionaly for the last week. I almost didn't finish it because my friend forwarded me some OTT critique (despite the fact she knows I hate critique) from -her- friend... anyway, end in all is I got so annoyed with both them, so I didn't work on it for several hours while I calmed down- so it's a day later than it should be. Thanks to my friends for helping me calm down and not scrap this.

I know it's not perfect, but hey, I don't have my entire -life- to work on this one picture, and it's not the easiest shot/pose/effects ever. I'm pretty pleased with the Kyuubi chakra I drew, I researched it and sort of merged the anime and manga versions of the chakra (I don't know how this will look in the shippuuden episode so it likely looks weird) The chakra alone took about 4 or 5 hours, but that's okay because really it's the focus of the picture.

Anyway, enjoy if you enjoy, and if you don't, hey, it's free.
