Artist's Comments

NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY OWN DRAWING!

This was done by :iconihatecollege: as a collaboration for the three commissions (and maybe more in the future) that I asked her to do for me. She did an awesome job and then they were compiled into this piece of win.

This is essentially the cover to my story that I've been doing since August 2007.

The layout:
Private First Class Hinata Hyuga (Medic w/M1 Carbine)
Private First Class Naruto Uzumaki (B.A.R. gunner)
Corporal Shikamaru Nara (Sniper w/M1903 Springfield)
Temari of the Sand Resistance (Sniper w/Karabiner 98K)
Corporal Sakura Haruno (Combat Engineer w/M3 Grease Gun, M2 Flamethrower, and satchel charge [massive kablooey])
Sergeant Sasuke Uchiha (Squad leader w/ M1A1 Thompson)

If anyone is wondering about Temari's uniform, it's a scavenged uniform Temari got from the former Sand Army that became mostly the Sand resistance movement against the Sound, hence the different look and color. IHC is an awesome artist and I really hope I can get the time and patience to make the fantastic arts like her.

Thank you, but you should be thanking :iconihatecollege: for the artwork. I just do the writing. She and I had Naruto look like that because given what they're doing and where they are it's not exactly the best time for smiles.

Sakura is a combat engineer and a lot of them had flamethrowers (huge risk might I add) and since I like to think of her as sadistic/wild, a flamethrower would've been perfect for her.

I really like it. It actually reminded me of the book, "The Things They Carried". Which was a really good book about the stories of several different platoons of soldiers during the Vietnam War. Shikamaru looks happy that Temari's with him :) I also like how you included Temari amoung the Leaf characters. It tells me that other villages are involved in this conflict, not just Konoha.

Thanks. I read that book and "If I Die in a Combat Zone." I like the stories and biographies that get down to the company/platoon/squad level. I'm actually an Army officer but I was enlisted for three years which kind of explains why none of them save for Rock Lee are officers.

Oh yeah the conflict has almost everyone involved, particularly Sound, Sand (resistance), Water, Wave, and Leaf.
