Naruto: Anbu Kakashi

Third of a series of six pictures for a Naruto fan calendar.
(THIS is the one which will be second in the calendar, but third to be uploaded. Hence, 'third'. Nevermind.)

Drawn on the premise that Kakashi + Anbu = HAWT. Because, you know, he brings both the girls and boys to the yard, 'yo. Anyway.
Finding anbu uniform references was hard, so there's a pretty good chance I've mucked up some important detail along the way. I'm also aware his hair is more bushy than spiky and considerably longer/higher, but when I tried drawing it like that he looked like he was from the movie Coneheads. Thus, shorter hair.

Not very happy with the background (or lack thereof). I was trying to go for the whole 'snowed out' effect, but I've discovered there's hidden art to doing snow [which sadly I know not], as my numerous experiments with the Motion Blur tool demonstrate. Tentatively leaving it in for the moment, as it does a nice job of adding depth, or something. *sigh*

Three more to go!
