GIN-SAN WISHES YOU HAPPY YEAR 2008! XD
Ephie is back 9 months after her last wall. >_< And her first 2008 wall features Gintoki from Gintama, whee~ Actually this all began when I returned to my hometown when my semester holiday began the last month. No PC then so I was just flipping through this Comic Weekly my little brother bought, and was staring at Fairy Tail charaters conversing in chinese for some while and then flipping through the back pages and kinda saw this silly manga where the argue over something small. The dialogues were pretty interesting but the art wasn't really that pleasing.
But things didn't just end there. For some reason I just kinda got attracted to this manga called Gintama and I just couldn't resist myself from looking over and over again. So from then on, I started checking Gintama manga online and began downloading the anime last week. XD
Anyway, onto the wall itself, I was just wanting to make a wall featuring Gintama characters. It's really an interesting manga to begin with, and the adapted anime didn't lose Sorachi Hideaki's sparks. :) So this is the result. *drools* Gin-san enjoying his sake. This wall begin mainly only because I love how Gintoki posed in the scan. I re-vectored the scan because the original colour was much more paler and it looks like the colour's a little fading.
The background was the hardest part to do. Japanese art is really something and I just couldn't resist myself from using the sakura=spring concept. :) Oh, and the Japanese character on the left side, you have to start from the top right corner, going down right to the end of the lower left corner. Literally translates as "Spring, Sake, and it's Gin-san!"

Hahaha... has it been 9 months already? Thought it's more than that, hehehe!
My good ol friend Jak and I agreed that you the character-background blending didn't go good. But the concept is really great! ;)
Great job for your first wall of 2008!
