I'm glad you like it! :D I looked at your list of stuff, and although I've actually been wanting to do a Gin/Rangiku pic for a while, I also feel the world has a need for more kickass!Hinata, since all the fanart seems to be of her as embarrassed and shy, or vapidly pretty in a yukata for a festival. Nobody seems to want to do her as a ninja.

Re: media. Well, it's both traditional and digital. XD I first did it as pencil on watercolor paper (http://www.magatsu.net/pic/Hinata-Pencil.jpg), then scanned it and colored over the pencils using Painter's watercolor tool, in Yet Another Attempt [TM] to get it to replicate real-world watercolors.* I didn't get quite what I as looking for, but it's good nevertheless.

Although, as per usual, what I prefer of all the versions is the original sketch (http://www.magatsu.net/pic/Hinata-linework-early.jpg). XD



* This would probably be easier if I actually knew how to do real-world watercolors.
