Meh! A wallpaper about the newest anime, Eureka 7! \o/
This anime has started airing recently, but already had a lot of "hype" around it, and when I got to watch the first episodes I totally fell in love with it. So guess what, I decided to make a wallpaper about it. That was about 2 weeks ago, then I eventually found out that Kozumura and Brom were working as well on a wallpaper about Eureka 7, so my wall was supposed to be the second submission, but then again nat preceeded me and submitted her masterpiece about eureka 7, lol. So this is the third wallpaper in a row about this anime.
The two characters (Renton, the boy, and the girl Eureka) have been completely vectored in Illustrator starting from the original scan, which was mostly covered with text. I planned to vector the whole scan but then I realized that the spread had the central part of the mech missing, so I just vectored Renton and Eureka and invented a new scene for them, keeping the same position they have in the original scan. It took me a week to do both vectors, and I am glad of the results because it looks quite close to original scan :D.
The background has been realized for the most part with the single use of the smudge tool (I still don't know how I did it lol, must be the power of the smudge tool itself, lol), I recreated the same kind of landscape that is shown in the anime with those weird hills, cliffs and slopes. To do that I had to watch the episodes a few times and take a lot of screenies to have some reference on how to draw them. Smudging is fun! lol
Special thanks to Tama-neko who followed my wip and gave very useful crits and tips, and all the other people of mt's irc channel who as well gave their input about this wallpaper.
[edit] Brightened the whole wallpaper a bit, following the suggestions of Yuuna.

yay finally commenting XD
first off.. nothing wrong with the scan.. pass
the landscape.. I don't know about the shape though its weird..
but I don't like those at the back - the grass goes underneath the hedge.. its very tough to have them growing on the underside.. plus it looks too long if its the grass that sways there and not grow there
this comparison is actually from the grassy hedge eureka is on
the grass on the patch of land eureka sits on.. looks actually like they are too thin.. according to the grass I have held in my hand before =p they should be a bit thinner than one finger XD
but ok I like the brown whatever they are 'T's behind~and so.. on to the sky
it looks pretty bright~ thats quite ok but weird since I don't see any huge light source.. or whether the sky can be that bright and have so much bright stars seen.. if you understand whatever I just typed
the stars are big~ but little light blurred to the sides
the clouds are great though.. well I like your clouds most of the time XD
those stars shining through the clouds should be more faint.. I think the clouds can block off a lot of light even when its not too thick
also.. those clouds right at the top centre.. is a bit weird.. its the bottom of the cloud or?dum dum dum... I finished the rant..
[22:29] <ShiNN84> you're like teh ultimate wall-slayer :O
so I just did whee~ :X -

Vwow shinn~
very nice vector and bg indeed.
the vector looks awesome and the concept of the bg fits the two of em really well. the grass eureka is sitting on looks perfect. but the the err... 'hills' at the back feel somewhat weird.all in all, its a good job. nice work~ ^_^

You did a great job on the vector. I wanted to vector the original picture but I backed down at how much text there was already on it. Yours looks flawless though. Great job once again!
