Sister Princess Wallpaper: Tribute for 120 Years Arsenal FC

Naoto Tenhiro, Sister Princess, Yotsuba (Sister Princess) Wallpaper

1600x1200 Wallpaper

Artist Comment

This picture is my tribute for Arsenal FC's 120th Anniversary, which comes in this year.

(for those who don't know, Arsenal FC is a football club playing in English Premier League. This club is founded in 1886, and played their first match on December 12, 1886.)

-----
Materials:

-Yotsuba scan from 'The Art of Sister Princess' artbook, by Naoto Tenhiro (Page 37)
-Arsenal FC crest (from www.arsenal.com)
-Emirates Stadium image, from www.emiratesstadium.com

Softwares:

-Adobe Photoshop CS
-GIMP 2.2
-----

First off: Why is it Yotsuba to be in this picture?

Well, it's because she came from England. Moreover, I adored the art of Sister Princess very much, so... there she goes.

Second: Why is it Arsenal?

Simply because I'm their fan as well. This has been my 8th year of supporting them. :D

Third: Why is there snow here?

Because now's going to be winter over there. Nah, not that alone -- this is also related with their very first match, which took place on December 12.

Alright, so here this pic goes. I realized that this is 2006 as well, and I somehow thought that it could be nice if I make a wall covering Arsenal's 120th anniversary. In addition, they also have new stadium starting this season, so... why not? ;)

The background image is the Emirates Stadium, which the club start to use from this season. Then, the rest is up on PS work -- added text on the BG, then on the FG, to give pressure on the event.

The funtime for me was when I modified Yotsuba's scan. I didn't give it for Arsenal's current outfit -- I modified it from 1998/1999 apparel, which (for me) is the coolest until now. Then I added some of this year's outfit on her cloth -- now it has the sponsor of "Fly Emirates" and a footballer shape on its chest; not forgetting the logo of course :D.

The snow effect is created using GIMP, since it is easier (and faster) to create it there (PS didn't help me this time! :(). I used 'GFlare' feature; seems that it worked out well, though.

Well, that's it. Comments and inputs are welcome :).
