Noriyuki Matsumoto Wallpaper: Heian Jidai

Noriyuki Matsumoto Wallpaper

1280x960 Wallpaper

Artist Comment

EDIT- THE THUMBNAIL IS GROSS, WALLPAPER ISNT

(I think this is from the Heian era, hence the title)

This is a preview wallpaper for paint-O-rama's first grand opening contest
It fits the requirements like so:
-It's a wallpaper
-The theme is ancient Japan
-There are nature elements: mountains ftw
-Tis painted.

easy? :D

I will provide a tiny walk-through of how I recreated the cropped horse head from the original scan (because yes it was missing half). This is the only thing that doesn't fit with the contest, because the participants should show a walk-through or tutorial on how they painted their vegetaion or whole wallpaper, not another element. :[
thanks to taterz and gids on that btw

now onto serious business:
This wall is hawt. I love it.


1600x1200, 1280x1024 res. and special sepia version are available here. OR MAYBE ANISTUDIOS.COM WILL BE UPDATED! OMG CHECKITNOW KTHNKSBYE
scan used here.

    i looove this wallie...the horse is really nice and the girl is really nice also...^_^...the scenery is great...
    i also have that scan...and i can't believe u were able to complete that horse...congrats...^_^

    I really like it. :D You really were able to make it like ancient Japan.

    A small suggestion though.
    > You could probably want to place something at the back in the sky. It doesn't have to be extravagant or really sophisticated, but a little something to place life there could help.

    Then again, this is your wallie, so it is your choice.

    It's still pretty the way it is right now.
    Great job!

    Wonderful work on recreation. I can't imagine how long that took. Everything looks perfect, can't find a single flaw. A definite fave. :)

    quite a lot of things in the wallpaper, but somehow it manages to work

  6. joiboidadoughboi Oct 28, 2006

    wah amaysink! you had to draw the horse's head with its acessories and loads of sakura. sugoi! *claps* it doesnt look like 2 people drew it. you did a very good job with imitating style and making it seamless. some wallers arent as good at drawing as the professional artist who drew the picture, but this is really very good. the hills are nice too since they give her somewhere to be, instead of just floating in a void. the only thing that bothers me is that she seems to be riding into sakura which seems kinda pointless. its fine if shes riding near them, but why would she ride into them? nevertheless its an awesome wallpaper!

    It's really very nice... you showed some nifty skills, I can tell you ^_^
    I love such scenic wallpapers.... great job, I say, it's my fav of course! ^^

    well there was a word that completetly attracted/shocked me, painted, re painted, that's a huge work, even if you didn't changed a lot of the original scan, thing that would have been better to make it more unique cuz re paint is a hard work but painting is bring your head into art with imagination so in some way at least for me is not only more thinking but more work (I'm not saying that you didn't put any work on this cuz wow I was really surprised), dedication or whatever... I see you had to complete the head of the horse, looks really good but it could be better cuz well you see the mn...how can I call it....muzzle? dont know....looks too short for a real horse is suppose to look....above that, I love the peaceful background and the colors. awesome wallpaper, no, piece of art...I'll wait to see more works from you.

    Awesome wall!
    Honestly, you can judge that even by looking on the thumbnail - it's not so gross after all, it's just small :D

    Great work!

  21. hoatim Apr 04, 2007

    Wow! Totally beautiful! Nice colors used. I think the horse's head is a bit short and kind of weird. But anway, great job! ++++fav
