WHOOT! Finally a wallpaper that I did 100%. I scanned the page, vectored it, and then wallpapered it. Usually I'll find a scan somewhere else, like an image board or a manga download site, then vector it, but this time I felt like scanning something myself. This is like, a big thing for me. ;__;
On to the wallpaper! I decided to add the flock of crows to illude to the fact that a flock of crows follows Ikki around in the manga. Everything else is pretty basic and simple. Though I did add a filter to make the background look like aged paper, topped off with a minor film-grain effect.
Layers: 50+
Software: Microsoft Digital Image Suite Editor
Filters: Old Paper, Minor Film-Grain
Enjoy!

This is really good, but... strange. The vector is great & funky with lovely warm autumnal colours. The background is original & emotive. But there doesn't seem like a connection between the vector & the background. Ringo is happy & lively, but the barren tree & flocking crows look more like something out of an old horror movie.
All of that aside, you've made a great wall, and that's a funky vector! You could even post the vector & the scan too.

I had a reason for that (which I will edit in once that option is fixed). See, the horror movie-ish background is really Ikki's background. See, if Ringo was out of the picture, and Ikki was alone, his color scheme and pose would fit the background perfectly. But then I made Ringo's colors more bright and happy to signify that there is always something beautiful hidden within an ugly situation. That's why I colored it the way I did. By contrasting Ikki's overall character [in the wallpaper], she becomes the focus, which is what I wanted.
And I would post the scan and vector, but the scan quality kinda sucks, and I seemed to have missplaced the vector D:
Dude.What can I say?I'm amazed by your work.Your effort paid off and it made in Elite Gallery.
Real punky if seen by me.
they're so cute together XD i like how you make the background ;)
Thay look cute!
I like the way they step out of the bg and the colors you used.
Great work!
cutety
wahh i think everything you do looks do modern and awesome. i cant do anything non traditional even if i tried!
again though i wish there were some outlines in the background because i think it would just match the vectoring on the characters. and i think that would fix the problem of the contrasting styles without having to change much. but other than that this is just phenomenal. your lineart is the kind of neat but sketchy lineart that is so hard to do.
These two are two much! I'm looking forward with an ending of them together.
=)
