providence(n): the care and kindness of God or fate.
May providence keeps our heart true when we are faced with the trials of life.
A wallpaper I did back in February for Lunar New Year. The idea for the title "Providence" actually comes from
my interpretation of RK story. I wanted to show how Kenshin is guided by providence in his life. Starting from when he
was saved from the slave traders as a child, how he took up the sword and became the assassin that aid the formation of
the Meiji era, his life after the revolution as a wanderer, and how he finally settle down to live a peaceful life.
That's why I choose soft colors for this wall. Well, maybe there's to much pink :p
I worked with these scans:

I vectored and extended Kenshin's hair and batousai's sword. In the process, I think I found another reason why RK is also known as Samurai X... Lookie how many X he has on the hilt of his sword! XD
Also I intentionally flip the images. No, I didn't forget that his scar is on the left side when I flip the scan. I did it so because I wanted the older Kenshin to be scar-less. It gave the illusion how he has healed himself from his past.
The rest of the background is made of scratch. I wanted to vector the trees, but I decided it was a bad idea so I stick with brushing instead. I hope the vectored characters blends alright with the backgrounds.
