Wow...for your first wallpaper, this is very good. I like how the bg work was done. Nothing overly fancy, but it's nice. Nice work, and keep up the good work.

PLZ FULL-VIEW..!
My first wallpaper. o_0 I'm pretty surprised myself.
This started of as a normal vector but I wanted to do a better job of a background so I got a little carried away. ^_^' I took lots of tutorials n some parts where purely me with brushes. I think it's pretty ok for my 1st wallpaper.
I've fallen some time ago for naruto. There's a lot of characters that I like but Neji takes first place. I'll omit the reasons since it's pretty obvious. Next it would be Shikamaru, Temari (the only not lame girl on naruto) and so on.
I'll seriously appreciate some feedback about it since this will be a life-threatening situation on my digital art career...not. Also, sorry about the size. -_- If it were any bigger it would look... weird.
Either way, hope you'll enjoy it. :D
*EDIT* Followed Tama-Neko's great feedback not only cuz I agreed with it but she's right. Remade the grass layers though
I feel it's a lil too overloaded. Fixed the shadow which I think it looks better. :D The light was made less sharp but I
still couldn't get it like I wanted.
Infinite thanks to Tama-Neko n fawna-chan for making me gain big improvement on the wall. ;)

You first wallpaper o_o I wish I could do something like that on my first try. The vector job is simple but smooth, and everything is really nice. I especially like those little wings in the text ^_^ I think the nails on the fingers look slightly wierd, but they're covered up by the grass brush so I guess it's okay.
As a side thought, I haven't really paid attention to Neji, but didn't he have wraps on both hands, and not just one?

[h]Ello,
this is your first wallie? and vector? first? ^_^ or you have expirience with that?
I think this wallpaper is very nice, it must take many hours and hard work also for the finish-job I give FAV -
Since you're looking for some serious feedback, I'll comment! :)
First off, this is great for a first wallpaper. I really like the concept, it's refreshing to see a different perspective instead of looking straight onto a character standing in a field, or a city, etc. I've also grown rather fond of wallpapers where the character's face isn't shown as I think in some cases it adds to the atmosphere of the wallpaper - in this case it gives a cold, lonely feeling emphasized by the small amount of blood on the headband.
And now, room for improvement!
First off, the grass should be a lot denser. It looks strange when you can see the bottom of the grass brush, because realistically the stem of the grass comes out of the ground. The best way around this problem is to start brushing at the top of the wall and gradually move the brush down to the foreground. The foreground grass will obscure the bottom stems of the background grass and give you a nice lawn. Once you've drawn your grass, try not to add more grass on top (stems here and there) because you'll have those annyoing stem-bottoms back in the wall. Where the grass meets the dirt is also a little blurry - instead of using a soft brush, try using the same grass brush but at a much smaller size. Grass is smaller at the edge of a path, but it retains the blade shape.
The edges of the light rays are too sharp and well defined, making your light source appear to be on the ground above his arms. Giving the rays a much softer edge (experiment with different amounts of Gaussian blur until you find a good balance) will make them appear more diffuse - and light coming from the sky should be fairly diffuse.
Neji's shadow looks a little off - it seems to be behind some of the grass and in front of the others (probably just a layer order issue.) Also, I would soften the edges of the shadow somewhat - not a whole lot, but shadows get more diffuse the further away from the surface the object is, so keep that in mind.
Anyways, good luck on your future walls. If this is any indicator of your ability, they should be great. -
*points up* sigh...tama-neko got here before me...oh well, she said lost of stuff that was good for your improvement and it really does look great for your first wallpaper. No doubt that you'll get better! :D Keep it up!

nice wall, i like how u focused on something rather then a character like most walls do. a bit small on the rez tho. :) good job!

Cool perspective. Really nice work on your vector. It took me a minute to realize what was going on in this wallie but now that I see, it's pretty neat. You know, you should put more blood around the grass. Simple in appearance but really nicely done. Nice work~
