Real-ish Gaara III

I'm so glad that you guys like the last one I did..! I don't usually like doing realistic stuff, and even though there's alot wrong with them, because I don't use reference.. Neil-sensei will kill me, haha.
Suuuu... Gaara sitting, with his gourd next to him, again. Don't like to draw a pic of him without his gourd! My god, I've gone crazy on the folds!! Someone stop me! Folds are one of the three things I'm obsessed with in art (the other two being light and sparklies!).. And he's wearing Kankurou's kitty hood!!! I LOVE Kankurou's hood. I've been wanting to draw Gaara wearing it for a while now.
This was originally supposed to be quite different.. He started off wearing normal clothes, with a t-shirt overtop of a long-sleeved shirt, jeans, and a kittty hat with the Sand Village symbol on the front (rather than Kanku's hood). But I decided to save all that for another pic I've had in mind, and just put him in his second outfit.
Again, I started this one at work today and spent aaaalll day on it. There are mistakes as usual, like his hand.... Ugh I don't like his hand. But I didn't feel like fixing it... I've done enough with this pic and enough drawing for today.. no more please! x___x As for the cork for his gourd... I don't know where it went, lol. XD
Lookit! Gaara butt!
