High Resolution is your friend~♥ :)

Here is the fluff pic of Arai and Lee I told Sayura and Akioh about x3 *shot by a Lee fangirl*
This picture was completely REFERENCED
I stared at an awesome picture, done by someone on dA, of a blonde chick and Lee for about 6-8 hours STRAIGHT trying to get this picture to look as good or at least pretty close to the picture I was staring at. I made up Arai's outfit though, of course! Lee's outfit came from the piccy I referenced from x3 This style of drawing suits my old style of drawing for NARUTO which is why this was more easier than I may be explaining =]
LIES! I had to restart this pic about 4-5 times because I kept messing up on Rock Lee's head and half of his body causing me to mess up on the rest of the picture XDD It's not easy drawing Lee cute, y'know!^o^;

This pic was done because my beloved[*cough*psychotic*cough*]friend wanted to see a nice, as we call it, fluff drawing of Arai and Lee because they are such close friends and Lee always seems to be there for Arai when she needs help or when she's losing a battle *shot again*

I FAIL at fingers and toes! XD I hate drawing fingers and toes x3 I have my moments when I kick butt and then I have the other moments where I just suck at 'em^.^; But I love her outfit~!<3 I don't know why, I just really like this outfit for some reason x3 And as you can see, I put NO black in this outfit x3 I made up my mind that as she gets older and as she changes her outfits, they will have less and less black on it until it's no black x3 *points to the picture above*
Lee looks better without ze spandex, no? Yes! I though so =]

I guess you'd say they were sparing at first until something happened and led to this or so on and so forth lol^w^

Also, I guess Arai and Lee would be around the ages of 16-17 in this, ne? I donno. They look it because we know how 15 yr old Arai looks x3

Uhm...there's not much more to say about this...except that I will probably never attempt to reference a picture like this ever again LOL! 6-8 hours is way too long! Especially for an impatient person like me xP

I hope you enjoy this drawing! I put LOADS of effort into this^0^[6-8 hours of effort drawing and about half an hour of effort coloring x3]
