EDIT: edited colors: lightened and yellowed hair more - lightened and added contrast to metal to make it more shiny (noticed colors were weird after i initially used my laptop to color).

i'll cut straight to crediting my source: the original sketch drawing was not done by me, a long time ago i downloaded some chapter of the naruto manga and in one of the files was a sketch of naruto drawn by kishimoto...i think (correct me if i am wrong).

i don't have a tablet, but i wanted to practice drawing digital lines art using a mouse. i used that sketch to play around with things. i added color to see how it would look with the lines, and then i got carried away.
