Description 3rd in a short series of Naruto characters in movie costumes for Halloween.
Lee and Sakura as The Monster and Elizabeth from Young Frankenstein

I think of it this way...

Lee: No matter how I disguise myself for these Halloween parties everyone always recognizes me immediately.
Sakura: Of course they do and they recognize me and...
Lee: It must be my eyebrows. That is the way Naruto always greets me: 'Hi, Bushy-brows...' I must come up with a costume that will conceal them.
Sakura: *Sigh* How about this..?

Debated if I should convert this to grayscale to match the Black & White scheme of the movie...even did a test run.
Yeah, for some reason I felt like trying a background on this one...but I'm a little unhappy about the streaky bits.

Drawn & Inked with Lots of reference. Colored with copics and retouched digitally.

You really captured Lee's way of speech in the little side story you kindly provided us with! The wind and her flowing hair really add to this and his expression=WIN!

I'm always amused how many people list it as InoChou... I guess you're going by dominant personality in the relationship.

No, actually. For me, it's easier to say than ChouIno. I have no clue why...

Anyway, have a nice day!

This is a really fun costume combo. I think that the costumes just really work with the characters which makes this picture awesome!

This was by far the hardest of the set to draw. And then I had to push my luck with the background. Oh well, I've always said the point of me putting this stuff out there was to try to improve.

So...how the heck did Lee get the zipper?!!?!?!?/1 Did Sakura use "zipper-on-your-neck no jutsu"?

Are you being obsessive about a pain in the neck...?

Well, you must admit it hides the eyebrows, although I'm sure if Gai sees it he'll think Lee took it too far.

Let's just hope Gai doesn't recognize the poor dear. That'll mean the costume is really great! :3

Hey, that version of Dracula is like on of my 'guilty pleasures' I just watched it about a week ago.

Back to the art, speaking of 'butt heads' just be glad I didn't dress Lee up as FrankenBerry.

No, I think the Old Count's hair looks like a crazy pair of cinnamon buns.
