A Nodame Cantabile wall in the Art Nouveau style. You can never have enough
Nouveau.
Basically, I thought Nodame's pose in this scan was well suited
to an Art Nouveau style portrait. The skeletal trees in the back had a Nouveau
vibe anyhow, which is what tipped the scales for me. Also, I wanted to play with
framing, where part of the character is inside the frame and part is in
front.
Trace, with gradients to create soft shading. I had fun doing the lacy pattern
on Nodame's blouse.
Some texture (including a musical sheet texture) as well as a color shift to
browns to give it a bit of that old-time feel.
Although initially similar to Letort Nouveau I opted to
go for musical notational swirls instead of the more classic floral/leafy swirls
of Mucha's style. I designed the frame so it could be extended horizontally
instead of creating 3 frames to match a 16x10, 4x3 and 5x4 monitor resolution as
is my usual wont.
If you don't like this resolution, go find
a better size at DA! Desktop Anime.
Random note: This is wall #250 at DA! Desktop Anime!

lol tiny lettering at the top is unusual
but I
guess it couldn't really go anywhere else. O'course the 1280 res looks the best,
cause widescreen like that has an awful lot of empty space for is supposed to be
a busy/detailed style. but anyways, I really like how the focus is centered on
the instrument, and the framing is leet. But again I wish there were more
lineart detail in the frame itself +_+

oh and as usual damn great outlines >D
Oooh...very nice. I like the musical border and the actual portrait focus.
It
looks great!
Lovely colors and design... the detail in the French Horn especially looks exquisite
That is some insane detailing :O Oh My, I simply <3 the textures, colors, the vectoring skills you have, and the details of course
yaya! nice wallie with very beautiful details. i like the style of manga of nodame, but the anime style is more likeable to me.
anyway, i first saw the liveaction, later the manga and now im looking the anime.
great work for a great manga ^^
neat idea! I love the framing (with the musical notes and all), and esp the colours
nice vectoring too, you used gradients as in gradient meshes right? looks neat ^^
I loove this wallpaper! I've been looking for more Nodame walls to add to my collection since I'm guessing its relatively new and there aren't many walls of it out there yet, so glad a great wally came out for it X3 I really love the border and how the whole wallpaper is composed, it came out really neat! And thank you soo much for linking to other sizes *I unfortunatly don't use widescreen, so thankfully this one comes in normal sizes as well* <3 Great wally, I'll be adding it to my favs! ^^
The outlines look great and the horn looks great! Nicely done!
This is gorgeous and inspiring. I love Art Nouveau and Nodame and I think it was an excellent idea to combine the two here, given the skeletal trees background.
Cool, the frame looks very interesting. And awesomeness.
