Welcome to Gaia! ::

I post on the rare occasion in this thread in order to gather images for my rp characters. To those of you who know me, there are several ways I repay my debts to those who make art for me. My personal favorite is to advertise their stores if they have them via signature. I usually pay gold. That being said, my stocks are running lower than usual so I will need to bargain with anyone who plans on getting payed for this indeaver. Anything that falls into that category can be dealt with via pms. Now then on to what I want...

I am once again getting in on the naruto scene only now that Akatsuki is out that is the primary basis for my character. His name is Amari and his favorite phrase is "Dont tell me to smile." I would like the name somewhere on the page but the phrase is uneeded unless you, yourself are interested. If I am going to buy it it needs to be in color but if it's free then you dont have to follow any of these rules specifically. He has many features that need to be considered but you can use any mixture that you wish so long as you dont ignore the existence of the others. Below are the main features of the body that make up the body.

Age
Roughly the same of Zabuzza, which is slightly older than most of the typical ninjas without being ancient like the kages.

Hair
Black and very specific. On one half of the head it goes down straight over the right half of the face halfway down the neck. The other half apears to have been cut short to the head in a rough shape like with a knife. Think Zabuza for this section of the hair.

Face
A-Face wrap. This is similar to the wrap you can see on my avitar's head, except black.
B-If you dont do the face wrap wich is your choice you should show the face directly. Amaru has 3 eyes on the visible side of the face one beneathe the other. He rarely smiles. He has visible skull capped in steel on the hair-covered section of the face if you for some reason feel the need to make that section visible remember that he has sets of 3 eyes which means 3 sockets on the skull.

Heaband
Anyone who has ever seen naruto would know that the headband is an important part of the character design. This is needed. He wears his headband around his neck and if his face is wrapped the headband is pulled up over the nose so that the silver emblem covers the mouth. It is renegade sound which means that is has a simbol of a quarter note with a cut through it. The cut is bent ever so slightly to resemble a smiling mouth over where his mouth is.

Clothing & Materials
Typical Akatsuki robe (Black with red cloud designs all over it) except with longer sleeves that he does not have his arms in. The robe wraps around his body rather like a cloak with an area in the middle that opens though nothing is usually visible within the opening because it is worn close. The cloak appears to be too large for him which is why the sleeves are so long.
He wears a vest underneat his robe that has two gigantic puppet claws that end in knife-like blade fingers. If you want you can have the claws visible over the shoulders on the outside of the cloak but what hides beneathe the cloak itself should be somewhate mysterious. The legs and feet should be hidden beneathe the folds of the cloak. He wears a straw hat like all other members of Akatsuki but it is usually pushed off of the head and hanging loosely by string around his neck so that from a front view only part of the hat can be seen hanging on his back. He does alot with shurikans causing them to fly about and dice up enemies. His shurikans are black with a single red cloud on the flat part of the design in case you wanted to show a hand moving out of the robe holding one-five shurikans or use them flying around as a background element. The one hand sticking out of the robe scheme is kinda important. He should either be performing a single simple one-handed seal.

And thats it, there are alot of details and I understand that it may be a bit frusturating to understand all of what I write as my thoughts dont always translate well. It will probably be even more frusturating to draw but this will realy help me alot if anyone can do it.

Cool, I was hoping I could get someone to draw it. I have done a few on my own and I am satisifed with them but my skills are.... subpar compared to most of what I see here. My thanks to you for stepping up when noone else would (so far). To be frank I think most people here just like to draw avitars wich is fine but completely useless to me. sweatdrop
