Whew. This was... a great change. Should I say that? Everything looks simple. But I think I really love this one.
Firstly, I must thank the Expression de Vigilance team for giving us the music
theme. I really think that this round's theme was far cooler and yea, music has always inspired most of us
wallers.
For my case, this wall was inspired by Jay Chou - Shan Hu Hai, which means Sea of
Coral. It's a very popular song, and yesh, I'm Jay's fan! <3
In his lyric, there was a sentence that goes like this:
you turned to leave (you have something you can't say) can't even say you wanna break up
the love between a seagull and fish is just a coincidence
Okay, that was a bad translation, but it wouldn't be hard to figure what does it says. It basically means that
seagull and fish can't possibly be together, and even if they do, it's just a matter of pure coincidence.
It's really sad to think so, though. As if the love between 2 creature has been decided from a very long time ago.
And so it makes a very good sad wall~
Seagull is vectored from here
, with it's mouth from here,
and fish from here. All
vectored. Actually, it was Muz's idea to vector the
outline of both of the animals. My first idea was to just vector the seagull black and the fish white. But the outline
vector turned out great! ^^ Thanks, Muz!
The background was an awesome texture by Aethereality mixed
with a white to black blending I did. For the water ripples, it wasn't really entirely my idea. It was Yina's Sakura
Dance that gave me that idea. At first I wanted to do a coloured version, but aahh... can't seem to make the
whole thing fit so I made it... this colour. *stares up*
Anyways, we lose the battle again. But it was great, everybody in TLM submitted awesome entries! ^^ We rock~
