Tsu has finally overcome her lion artblock

Since alot of people have asked for a Deidara lion, I drew one so they can leave me alone >: P (I had this down as someone's art trade request but I forget who, so I suppose this will count as my trade part.) I'm planning on lionizing more Akatsuki members later.

I tried making Dei have somewhat of a unique design, like the darkened tail end, toe "rings", and a vertical stripe down his back. It's fun poking with natural designing, because I won't get bored of drawing him later on. I forgot his Akatsuki ring, but oh well...

((If you don't know what that thing on his chest is, read chapter 362 of the Naruto manga. It only recently showed he had that stitched mouth on his chest ^ ^))

The anatomy is completely messed up, but I don't feel like fixing it ;/ Dei (c) Kishimoto-sensei, pic and lion design (c) me...no stealies or I will kill j00 dead.
