Nara Shikamaru

Ok, so I was originally going to do a coloring of this, by J-u-m, but somewhere down the road, it turned into this thing instead. Since I'm doing portrait work in my drawing class right now, I got bugged by the proportions/measurements of the face, and ended up doing a portrait from scratch. 

I honestly surprised myself with how well this turned out. Apparently I have some skill... Yay!

Anyways, since I started out doing the adult Shika, here's a little bonus for you all: [Beardy Power]

Enjoy!
