ooooooooooo interesting scann!+fav!=)
Artist Comment
I know this scan has been walled before, but I've always liked Nimya's character, and the other walls with
this scan are generally scenic pictures with clouds or grass or other such things. However, I had an entirely different
purpose in mind. Nimya's story always reminds me of Leonardo Da Vinci - the sketches in the encyclopedia are very
much in Da Vinci's styles, as are the different drawings of the wings for her flyer. However, it wasn't until
I saw "Making Da Vinci's Dream Machines" that I finally understood the pose she was drawn in for the JP
rerelease of DVD 4. The show discusses efforts to create two machines from Da Vinci's drawings, but also discussed
Da Vinci's other scientific treatsies, including the famous sketch of the Vitruvian Man (also know as the
Proportions of Man.) The spread-eagled man looked just like Nimya's pose, and I don't think it's
coincedence. So I decided to redraw the scan in the same style. This involved redrawing the entire right side of the
image as well as her feet, which were directly modeled off the original Vitruvian Man sketch. Add some textures and make
it sketchy. Something different, hm?

nice concept here ^^ nv fails to amaze me how u manage to come up with so many ideas and concepts for ur walls. brilliant work u haf done, tho somehow the legs look a little off to me... maybe it's the body ratio or the positioning?

Oh dear tama, what would we do without your ingenious ideas XD
very interesting idea none the less, allthough I think more abstract calcutaions encyclopidia stuff on the sides would have looked good.

Tama-san, if it were not for you I would not have 54 walls of a series I haven't even seen yet. ^_^ Lovely as always, a favorite as usual!

Yep, it's something different and more artistic. I love the sketchy feeling, and the brownish background. The title reminds me very much of Leo Da Vinci, which it is. xD Great job!

That is so freakin' weird. I love it. But it's weird. Very neat idea and your so right about Kino's theme. I do have a tendency to agree with Candy-chan about the excess of sketch lines that Da Vinci pictures have in them, so I'd like to see some more random lines and faded parts of Kino within the circle. Otherwise you've captured the concept very well, and freaked me out! Kudos! :pacman:

hahaha, the Vitruvian woman. It's quite original. I like it. I love the old parchment effect, it's very effective. haha, the Vitruvian woman. lol. Imagine if da Vinci actually drew something like this. haha.
anyways, I like this wall. You did a great job Tama. :)
