Artist Comment

This was my entry for the challenge of the Crimson Orchestra versus the Foundation.
the winner was us :D
the crimson orchestra.

basically, the rules of the battle can be seen in this thread:
http://www.animepaper.net/group/battleground/discussions/27469/

my idea was at first to recreate the feel of the painting from the series. but then i decided...not to. don't remember why, just didn't. so i went for a theme with the red, red-orange and orange, and made my wall based around that.
also, i gave the scan a major reCG basically doing half of her skirt, half of her hair and some of her legs. drawing it all from my head x_x
so, thats about it i guess.
oh yeah, melismatic means:
several notes sung on one syllable: a decorative phrase or passage in vocal music, especially one in which one syllable of a plainsong text is sung to a melodic sequence of several notes

Thanks to all the members of my army for all their help, advice, and doing a kickass job under some tough restrictions.

This is a beautiful scenic grunge wallpaper by kalico. It's bold and eye-catching. Kalico has done well with grunge, colour scheme, CG, perspective and blur in the right combinations. Beautiful work kalico!

    Really bold colours and an exceptionally good use of perspective. I particularly like the sun which looks like it was consisitng of several geysers or hot lava waterfalls...

    Brilliant wallpaper. I love it!
    You did a really good job with the colours and grunge. We don't see a lot of scenic grunge these days... I really like your blur effect and the jupiter-type planet. Looks great. *fav + highlight*

    PS - nice CG as well.

    Beautiful wallie with such wonderful colors. The bg's awesome! Great work!

  14. Elves Jul 10, 2006

    That's a really neat perspective. I appreciate the blurred leaves in the foreground, it brings so much depth. Nice work CGing the parts you did (since I didn't even notice it had been done). I like the balance of colors as well. Great job!

  15. Skyneth Jul 10, 2006

    Very beautiful wallie. The colours are cool. ^^

  16. Revan Retired Moderator Jul 10, 2006

    The work on the scan is awesome, it seems as if it was painted in watercolor :o

    I just love how moody this wall is.

  17. Nucleous Jul 11, 2006

    I love this wallpaper the mood is so dramatic and I love dramatic scences like these!

    This is probably the best Rah-Xephon wallpaper I have seen to date and will take more than talent to surpass this the insight was way beyond anything I have seen!

    Thanks sooo much for this wallpaper will be my wallpaper for some time to come!

    The use of colours and blur really sets this wallpaper apart from others!

    Thanks again!

  18. armac Jul 11, 2006

  19. perlox Jul 12, 2006

    ooo, nice work. very good wall.

  20. catreroth Jul 12, 2006

    Very pretty, a very cool art indeed. The colors fit the whole jupiter concept perfectly, also the leaves in the first layer look great. Congratulations on a very good job, and thanks for chosing RahXephon, one of my favorites.

  21. stefytzu Jul 12, 2006

    GOOD JOB!SUGOOI@@

  22. mirkoemir Jul 14, 2006

    This is an amazing Art work ... The complete scene is just perfect stand ... and the colours that you chose, are beautiful. Congratulations ... FAV!

  23. sailorchiron Jul 14, 2006

    This is really nice. I like the out of focus stuff in front of her. You did a great job on the character. I also like the weird stuff in the bg, it goes with the feel of the series. This melisma is obviously from a mad scene...kinda weird but absolutely beautiful.

  24. mystvearn Jul 16, 2006

    Some people would not notice the leaves/branches in front of the character, even though its well made.
