Wow I haven't submitted anything for around a month...
Well, exams are pretty much over so I finished this wall which I started a
month back...
Right anyway, for this one the background was done completely from scratch, the bridge included. Yes, believe it or not, I drew every last evil pixel of the bg. I would say that this one involved more time, effort and angst than my Home Sweet Home wall.
As for layers, I can't even be bothered to count them all, especially since I made most of it in separate files and then shoved them together to minimise lag. But if I was to guess, I'd say its somewhere between 200 and 300 layers. Considering the buildings took about 200 layers.
I know my extraction skills stink, plus the orignal scan wasn't very high
quality, and on top of that I had to enlarge it a bit to fit the size I wanted.
Really sorry about that.
Scan from minitokyo scan
gallery, submitted by Miroku4444.
The building was drawn based on a photo I found on the net, it was the most
irritating and frustrating thing I've ever drawn on Photoshop. And still it
turned out to be the worst part of the wall
Everything's really wonky and it doesn't seem to fit in that well. If you really
want to know, I pretty much drew the whole thing with chunks of strategically
shaped colours. And I used a brick texture for the walls. And yes, those weird
things sticking out of the water are... well weird but meh, it was on the photo
and it'd look empty if I took them out. I have no idea what they are.
The bridge was actually quite fun, the bricks and sandstone texture were made
with filters.
Meh, and I really suck at drawing clouds
Right, I thought that I should dedicate this wall to the people who are currently kind of away from MT due to various reasons, such as Semanga, Samanosuke, Crewcifix, Melmachine and Flowerdog. I haven't really talked to many of them properly but it suits the theme and I'm sure many people here are waiting for them to return.
Enough babbling from me. And like I always say, comments are really welcome,
both good and bad. Although I have a feeling that there's going to be a lot of
crits this time...

omgsh! another wunderful wall by kara-chan!=D
lemme tell ya! its an awesome wallie kara!I can see you put a lotta effort in making the background!=D and it looks beautiful!^-^
the scan fit right in the scene! love the prettyful gal!
another fav from me of ur fantabulous wall!=D
keep up the excellent work!
yay im first!
nice wallpaper, the background looks good i like all the colors and the girl is very pretty.
Wow good wallie, the bg is very nice, the building and the sky are quite beautiful. Good job, keep it up
haha a really interesting wallpaper indeed~
kinda sad to see the scan is a bit low quality.
for the building, some of the windows are still weird perspective-wise. and the farther shud be a lil darker or brighter to give a sense of space. a sense that it's further away.
the light pole is pretty nice. just the curl part.I just cant figure how it is slanted.
the bridge has one big flaw. the texture is flawles, but the lines is plain illogical. the back is straight but the front one is to the right. I could be wrong, but to me it just looks wrong.
in any case, its a really interesting concept. just need some more work and it'll be perfect~ ^_^
wow, awesome background and great effort, though the extraction need to fix, coz i seen a few jagged line on her hair, but the background is impressive!
Wow, amazing work, Kara!!
*stares in wonder* the buildings and all pieces of the bg are wonderful, you
made a perfect job!

The scan is nice too, and I love the colors
Everything is so great, keep up the nice work!! ^^
Wow, now this is nice. Your background is very smooth, and it's very good considering you made it from scratch. The setting and sparkles on the water are really nice as well. The only minor gripe I have is that the scan of Nemu is a little bit blurry, but other than that, it's perfect.
I'm adding this to my favorites.
Nice work, keep it up.
kara, your skills are amazing o.o; another bg made from scratch and its a veri good one too ^^ the bg is juss awesum, the only thing i'll complain about is the water, its a bit odd and of course the scan quality isn't the best. but great work as usual, kara
wow ^^ amazing wall ^^ I love it , yup , just like everyone , I want to say the scan ' s quality is not really good , anyway I'll add this wall to my fave for your really good skill ^^
keep up great work ^^
