As always, yes it's been a while since I've created anything 
. Not to worry though everything is settled down on my side and I've started up
a few projects and such. I'll be fixing up the Aspiring Mafia a bit too ...
seems I forgot to change a few of the links coding on the group page and such.
On to the wall. It's nice and cold outside so I decided to make a winter wall. The character designs of Magna Carta have always caught my attention for their level of detail and the emotion they seem to show. The image of Calitnz collapsed caught my attention. I've been working with the image trying to figure out just what type of environment to put him in and finally decided on snow after many experiements. The wall is subtle for the most part to have more of an emotional aspect, but filled with many smaller details so that all the focus is brought to Calitnz.
Blue is the primary lighting of this wall, with subtle colors of yellow to match
and accompany Calitnz's outfit. I've put various details as said earlier such as
footprints, snow marks where Calintz's body had rested on, snow on Calints
himself, snow on the trees, grass poking out from the snow, of course falling
snow, birds, and various other details. I'm not one to usually do the whole two
moon thing for the obvious reason that strange skies are overused, but I never
have and it added to the mood quite well 
. The rest of the sky besides the clouds was left barren to portray the
desolate atmosphere. I still feel like something is missing, but whenever I add
something else it just detracts from the overall look I was trying to achieve
... so if it appears empty it looks much better that way and I'm rusty at this
.
The story of this wall is that he has been traveling for some time across this snowy plain on a journey. His strength has been gradually weaking due to conditions, but he tries to persevere. The moment that this wall takes place at is when he finally collapses falling backward. He falls to the ground hopeless, feeling as though his purpose has been lost, that he has failed. He looks down and to his suprise he sees a small patch of delicate yellow flowers growing out of the snow. He wonders how it is that these small flowers can grow in an environment like this, resisting the very thing that has enveloped the rest of the land with it's cold slumber. He picks one of the plants and looks at it as thought fly through his mind about his quest. He begins to stand up once again ... this time unwilling to give up and resist the snow much as the flowers have done.

Full-View looks best, so I highly recommend it or else everything looks too much
like blobs in the thumbnail.

yeah..I've always like the artworks..this is ok..very beautiful bg but the lighting on the hand is a bit weird..kind of a bit too dark on the fingers and the scan looks a bit huge for the scenery but anyway..it is still a nice one^^
You've outdone yourself once again, Tantaga. As usual, your perspective is clear and gives the picture depth. The biggest tree looks really well done. The emotions on his face reflect on the whole wallpaper which is rare to have on many walls. And, yet again, your amazing attention to detail! The footsteps on the snow, how the trees should fade lightly as they are further in the distance and the cold and low fog from the snow. Beautiful. A definite fave for me. (I would actually have preferred one moon, though, high in the sky. Doesn't really matter much. Or at all. ^_^)
OMG This is amazing!
You truly do pay attention to details. I mean, you even focused on the color layout and perspective. You really put so much effort into this wall. I mean, you even put footprints! Smart move with having those little twigs popping out of the snow. There is so much in this wall catching my eye. I love your horizon. It fades out perfectly. Goodness, I love everything with this wall....so realistic indeed. You should be proud of yourself!
*reads story* You know--without reading your description, your wall and title conveyed that mood and story all by itself ^^
Unbelievable work! Definite fav, definite fan!
P.S. Thank you dearly for the plug-in.
wow... nice job tanta-chan!
the colours go together well and i like the overall concept.
looks very good - especially the snow and the footprink (those footprints are great!)
i quite like the blur effects on certain trees.
