Artist Comment

Oh how I hate it when my browser breaks down and makes me rewrite stuff (et tu, Firefox...).

Anyway: vector of Chihiro and wooden part of bathhouse done in Illustrator with corrections in Photoshop, background in photoshop with stockpicture for sky, sea and cityscape (found at stock xchange).

My compensation for finals stress^^

Hope you like it! Constructive criticism always welcome.

edit: due to some helpful comments and suggestions, I have updated to version 2. Mainly made some adjustments to lighting and the text.

    I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO loved this movie! Such a lovely wallpaper you've made! I love how well you were able to clean up the scan. Thanks for the wonderful wallpaper :)

    i was gonna comment on this at session zero at AP, but i guess i'll do it here~

    the background seems a bit grainy in contrast with the vector (which was done quite skillfully) and one almost wants the glow of the city to be white and not a slight yellow as it is; but other than that a charming wallpaper.

    wow.. the city is so nicely done.. >__< and i love that night scene.. *__*
    but the scan is too sharp.. and it doesn't really fit to the bg.. apart from that, great work =D

    Wow....the far off city and the vector is really well done. I love Spirited Away and it's actually a bit werid because I just finished watching it. You did a great job on it!

    This wall is just magnificent. It's been a long time since I was really moved by an anime pic. This one has something more. Thank you.

    incredible... the title fits so well to the scene that you created, that seems so nostalgic, somehow... great sensation, great work, great wallpaper! :D
