XD I usually fav everything that has a cool Sasuke-kun in it... but this honestly worths some praising... Where should I
begin?...
First I think the background is really stylish, your digital painting mirrors a lot of effort and their pose reminds me
of samurai battles. The sakura are kinda out of placed, since they're the only pink/tiny/warming element, but
let's just call it creativity.
Overall, a huge success.

Hello :)!
Okay, so I'm a little obsessed with the Ninja Warrior show on G4, it just fricking rocks! My favorite All Stars are Makoto Nagano (of course), Toshihiro Takeda, Bunpei Shiratori, and the new kid Shunsuke Nagasaki. What does that have to do with this wall? Absolutely nothing X-P .
Anyway, I didn't have plans to do another Naruto wallpaper right away since I just did a Gaara wall. Then I saw this scan and for some reason it reminded me of Ukiyo-e (Japanese woodblock prints) of Samurai, and I really wanted to make an Ukiyo-e style wallpaper out of the scan.
Ukiyo-e I used for the wall:
Print that the scan
reminded me of
Print used for the
house
Print used for
trees
I vectored everything that I used for the print (even the cherry trees >.<) and then went back with different brushes to add textures and such. In a lot of prints, you can see the actual wood grain on parts of the print, so I just googled wood grains and used an image I found for the wall.
In a lot of Ukiyo-e, some parts of the image have great detail, while other parts of the image have very little detail. Like a kimono will be intricately detailed, but then a lot of times the people in the prints don't cast a shadow, etc. So, I tried to mix up adding lots of detail and not as well. Also, things aren't always to scale so I tried to incorporate that as well.
Anyway, this took longer than I expected (over a month from start to finish), but I also took long breaks of not doing anything due to being really busy and sick. There were a ton of layers used (over 150 >.<). Most helpful tool used besides the pentool was probably the gradient, smug and blur tools.
Hope you guys like the wall :) .

IMO: The wall will look better if you added shadow to the floor and also i kinda prefer sakura trees in snow scene?(influence from many animes haha) =x -

Ukiyo-e is a win in my books. (even when it's Naruto-failure *no sense convincing me otherwise ~_~*) and this is an extremely good interpretation. You really made the whole thing work and it's like a woodblock but from StudioPierrot XD Your hard work has really paid off, congratulations
