Very nice in detail. I guess I won't ask anything about the title since it's already there...
A simple scenery is enough to explain the theme...

So this is my submission to the W.A.R. battle contest featuring the chracters from the manga by Ai Yazawa called Nana. I dont know much about the characters so to speak because i dont keep track of whats happenign in the anime scene anymore since im short of funds and have more art based talent to go on in my life... so it was a hard process of getting this image done since my college is starting and my Birthday is coming at the 10th of September which no one would care anyway if i said it but hey at least i have a life, i extracted the image mostly and Re Cged the arm chair pat and the left base side of the couch as best i can; Found a stock photo of a table and was too lazy to make one, but at least i bade it look more carttonish hehehhe... did the orchid vase and that damn glass head with orange juice margarita or whatever you call that ladies drink... >_> Dont know what to say about the bg though it took me 3 hours to think and experiment what type of bg that would fit this piece, tried a dead wall black bg, fading walls and other crap but always came back to traditional wood based dry wall for some reason cos its simple and nice to the eyes plus the overlaying colors is more touching to the eyes than a bland original colors it had on this but in the end at least it went well. The text was fairly challenging since i wanted to fill the huge space on the left top hand corner with a big arse text but didnt match the suttleness of the wall so i made it smaller and simple to the eyes, deteriorating and added some Runic mumbo jumbo to make it look cool! ^ ^ Also added a frame work to make it look authentic in a way. I wanted the focal point to be the orchid since its the only one shining there which reflects more on the characters near it cos their love is strong in that erotic and sensual kind of waysince the theme is expressed here very nicely. Then for the finishing touches i added some dot pattern layer from my "Blame wall" before and a noise filter to scan it all out sufficiently to give that posterized and edgy theme to it and wala there you have it... a Good simple wall.
OH and dont b**** about the empty part there in the wall cos i saved it for the icon whorish peeps who use walls like these and if you have nothing to say but that, then dont say it at all... >_< It might be a bit bright so just tone your screens also! >_>
Anyway theres about 89 layers and 3 days of work...
Hope you like it! more resolutions coming soon in Imanimetions when Shinta gets
its up! ^__^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(...) intent:
Infatuation to me now is more changed now than it was beofre since love can lead to so many things impossible for you to
handle like take for instance my Ex GF, grade 5 I bulied her in such a way that i was kinda infatuated by her for some
reason but as the years passed i forgot about that and all during high school until grade 9 ive been in a lot of deep
depression of love and of myself since most of the class had a heart to be with and i was one of those outcast or should
i save the "Loveless" group. But later one i grew fond of her and somewhere between Grade 9 and 10, Me, 2
other guys and her were some sort of friend posse of that year. from friends, best friends we became closer to one
another mostly running through hardships and mishaps of that schoolyear until i became her most closest Man friend to
her. Later that year i popped the question and she said yes... hard to say but it was rumored that we were the cutest
couple among our class well mostly among the "girls" hehhe but i didnt mind at all it was fun that time. Oh
yeah funny story the wall is actually something we did when we were making out except in the fire escape which was more
than the couch but my lustful desire grew and grew and we always did it when we got the chance (but the main reason was
always love nothing else) but for some reason the more i thought about it as we got intimate, then i left her and broke
up with her after long distance realtionship for 3 or 5 more months we still became friends and talk occasionally when
she comes online, Ive noticed our love more more of a friendship/infatuation kind of thing and the love was really there
for me....kinda sad but thats what i really felt during that time. Infatuations is only as high as i can go, unless
someone actually truly loves me for who I am and then the trust seeps in fast. Never understood love, always thought it
was just a word, a plain shadow of this so called infatuation but what the hell i sometimes over analyze things too much
since my mind wanders more than my knowledge is built in to be processed.
Ive concluded that there is no true happiness nor there is no almost perfect love unless theres is trust and loving the
person for who he/she is, only then that can be erased from my inner workings as an existentialism/
trancendalist/evoloving person Iam trying to discover and mutate to be. I love her for who she is and not even the fires
of hells abyss nor the crows of night can take that away from me.
Ok i guess im offically weird and rambalicious . O__O

The criticism of House begins now and here it is.
[This is the coolest wall of my day. *looks closer and deeper on the wall and at the comments* I was right... lots of in depth meanings of grieving and painful splitting migraines of blind love retellings. Fascinating. Ever thought about a movie deal with Hollywood? Btw the technique seems to have used on your other previous walls before. My conclusion; very hypnotic to look at.]
End of Criticism.
