The Bloody Mist kage by Umaken on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Terumi Mei was a kiriban request by ~sanwase (btw, if you're a Sannin fan - I highly recommend you visiting her gallery! :D ).

I drew a sketch, then I decided to ink it... After that I decided to try colouring by markers... And finally I scanned it and added a background in GIMP (brushes were used for clouds,surely :)). I just couldn't stop, you see! :) Drawing an interesting woman is a process very hard to stop at... :drool: And she is a walking sexuality herself...

It turned out a bit darker than I expected, but I hope you all DO remember, that she's a shinobi from the Hidden Mist, where at the graduation exam the students had to kill their partners. This tradition stopped only after Zabuza's graduation - and Mei seems to be older, than Zabuza. Do you follow me?.. :D

To my mind, Terumi Mei is the most intriguing character now in manga. She became kage after Tsunade (Tsunade was the first female kage), which means - less than 3 years ago. She became Mizukage after Madara. (Why?..). And - finally - where is she now??? At the middle of the war? I know we shall soon know the answer... But still :)

P.S. There's no category for a mixed-media fanart!!! :(

UPD: Ah, she's guartding the daimyo... I got my answer quickly ^^;
