Artist Comment
I was browsing the misc scans gallery in MT to both keep it clean (moving inappropriate images out of the gallery) and
to see if there were any good scans of shrines/temples for a wallpaper I'm working on. I found this scan of Neko no Ongaeshi and just loved it.
Hiiragi's art is pretty simplistic, and I like the anime designs of the characters more (especially the fact that
Baron is a ginger cat, not black) but the simplistic watercolor style of the picture, plus its feelings of easy
friendship between these three, really drew me in. I redrew the wall and the rooftop that Baron is leaning
against/standing upon, and then used several blended stock photos for the skies. I added texturing to maintain that
watercolor on rough paper feel. Since in the end of the Neko no Ongaeshi manga, these three are resting on top of a
building (watching over Haru?) and the anime ending theme was "Kaze ni Naru" or "Becoming the Wind"
I decided to use that for the title. Very summery.
Look! It's a wallpaper that (provided you only have 1-2 columns of icons) is suitable for a PC OR a Mac!
Additional resolutions are available at DA! Desktop
Anime.
EDIT: Fixed some of the problems Nuniko brought to my attention, and a few other things (Toto had an odd blue halo
around him) and darkened/roughened up the clouds to feel more watercolorish.

Who: Anji
What: Another World | Lagoon Engine Einsatz
Why: A different type of scenic wallpaper: a gloomy night scene with an enormously detailed, fantastically strange city.
Love it!

Tama I love the scenery! XD Well it kinda brings back my memory of suikoden 4. Which has a character named Chapel if I am not wrong. Very beautiful. Good work indeed.

Great job Tama! XD

I love that grainy quality to it... That really adds to the fantastical and nostalgic air of the image. Great work! :D

i quite love the texture. but ha-ha, no surprise in there. ^^
the cat in the suit is smart and adorable, so is the fat cat staring somewhere out there.
the bg looks quite simple but it's really a cool combination of water-colours here and there. very creative and impressive. +fav -

I really like Studio Ghibli's work, but find it pretty hard to wall.
I tried a Mononoke Hime wall and it was not as I expected at the end.
You really managed to do something special with a pretty simple scan.
The texture gives the impression that there's a lot of details. It seems that the scan was made to be wall with this style.
I like the clouds and those caracters are sympatic :)
Nice work, keep it up! -

Two thumbs up for this one! Nice, peaceful colours, a simple scan, well-matched textures and a great overall feeling.

I have not seen this movie but I love Studio Ghibli~ unfortunately there aren't that many quality Miyazaki walls that I've liked, but this one is so wonderfully simple, but beautiful. ^.^ Going to nominate it for [url="http://groups.minitokyo.net/simple-ism/"]Simple-ism[/url]'s featured gallery (a new group that I started up for people who like making/using "simple" walls~)
