description given:
This opportunistic ninja is tall and has a lithe build.
His beady eyes are blue. He has straight, short, soot-black hair. His uncomplicated outfits are usually olive-green.
He uses a classic form of martial arts that emphasizes deceiving one's opponent.
He is skilled in poison-making, acrobatics, and negotiation.
His body has traits reminicent of a panther.
Notes:
So, I made his outfit very uncomplex, not many buttons and holes and fashionable accessories. He does have a panther claw motif on his pant legs, his boots and on his bandana/dew-rag, that's about as flashy as it gets.
I really disliked the colors that were choosen, but I do think they fit well with the deception part (cameoflague!).
The claws on the end of his knuckles and fingernails are poisonous, and he keeps extras on one of his silver belts. The second silverbelt holds throwing needles; his arm guards also hold these poison-tipped needles as well.
His face is painted to accent his panther-like looks. His is the only black ninja (ningro? jk) so far I think to enter. The tail he carries is a trophy attached to his hip with the silver chain. He has purposely sharpened his teeth to look more intimidating. He keeps a trim diet to be flexible and stlk "prey" through the trees where he is light on his feet and keeps a steady grip with his hand and foot claws.
As far as negotiating, as you can see, he has one...with someone from Konoha village. Tsk-tsk should have listened to a crazy 7 ft tall black panther nin.
I included the bw art because I think my color ruined it. I also included the sketch where he is standing normally so you can see how simple his outfit is.
Yeah, I'm tired. Wish me luck! I worked hard on this- mostly out of respect of Z, a long time sempai.
Yes, I went to the site - I wanted to enter her contest mostly out of respect and to compete with some top notch artists. I probably won't win but here's hoping
Amazing! Look at at the detail...*envy* I love the design of this guy, his clothes (the panther on the back!) and even his pose, it just fits the description perfectly. I like seeing both versions of it too. +fav
This is a fantastic entry; I wish you the best of luck!
