Started today, finished today. (please don't ask how x_x )
Now, what to start with? For start, I LOVED this scan! Acordin to Scanpi, this is from Koakumana Kanojo (to be sincere,
I never heard of it). I knew I had to make a wall out of this, but I never actualy knew wall. Vectoring alone would be
too simple. But wile browsing around YouTube, I found a beautifull vid featuring Westlife's "The Rose". I
didn't even need more.
First step: vector it ~ it asasinated me! T_T The hair literaly kiled me. Whit so many twistes and turnes I am amazed that I am still alive. The dress wasn't simplear eather. Boy, did it kill me OX . But after all, I did it to myself.
I didn't vector the flower petales ~ my patience was woring out (after 8 howers of vectoring, could ou blame me?). But I loved the roses in he hair. And to give hem a bigger role in this, I vectored some (real) rosas I found on the net (why can't I find anime-stile flowers?). After the "sunflower" incident, I got more experience whit vectoring flowers. But I nearly kiled myself (again) since he roses I liked and wonted to vectro WERE RED! So, on a side I had a sample, on the other, I had whad some scarlet roses to make. Vectoring them took me 2 howers.
At first I intended to make a wole fiald of white rosas, but after a wile ... *frustrated* I AM NO SUPERWOMAN *sight* ... So I was saved by thise wondarfull brushed. Using them relaxed me ... :pacman:
But there was still a backgrount to be done. Well, that ment only one thing: back to the drawing bord (literaly). Vector soething simple, add a few efects, try some diferent stiles, a bit of photoshop magic here and there and some burned brain celes and here it is. (pwef :hmpf: )
Ok. Maby after this I'm going to go lower (I hope) and chach up on some reading. But Untill then, wenever I ake a look at the result, I can simply hear those hevenly lyrics ...
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
Thy might seme sad, and the melody might have a slight of melacholy, but it had to pe a joyfull and happy atmosfere, because the fealing of love witch boght the song and my vall (ore so I see it), can only be a joyfull fealing (::me=poet::)
What else can I say. This has been the hardest thing I have ever vectored up to day but it is my personal favorit work. Took 12h per total, scan can be found here if somebody planes to comit suacide by vectoring it and a vid with Weslife's song can be found here (please say it fits my wall ^_^' ). And now, it's time to say my groups.
Advice: If you plan on seeng eny of the kiling detalies, see it in full resolution.

I thought I was going to die when I full-viewed this wall because of all that detail! It's mind-boggling that anyone could do that much in so little time! It's AWESOME! (and a little scary... I think you deserve the "Patient Person of the Year" award, or something...) I can't vector that well in my dreams! XD All the shades of blue work perfectly together, and nothing melds so that you can't make out any detail, but it all fits even with the different styles of flowers! I can't find anything that looks like it could have been done better, either o_O The simplicity of the background keeps your mind from going into overload when you look at it, so it's still perfect for use on the desktop ^_~ Wonderful, wonderful job on this! (and thank you for making it widescreen!)

You actually vectored all that? That's absolutely crazy...Yet the result turned out beautiful. The background is nice, although it seems a bit busy and kind of takes away from the main picture. But still, it's a lovely piece altogether, and the color scheme is lovely.
Kudos to you for taking on such a detailed work.

I'm surprised about the fact that I didn't notice this wallie!
It's so pretty! Though I'm not a fan of blue, I loved how you used it on your wallie!
Everything so exquisite, like porcelain!
I loved how you vectored things... some with prominent lines and other with discrete lines...
Great work! Congrats! -
