Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny Wallpaper: We May Never Meet Again in This Lifetime

Full view please, the thumbnail is super icky >,>

Well, I may publish this again later because of the server switch, but we'll see.

So, really, I pushed it here. This is for GSA's "Heartbreak Hotel" challenge, which the deadline isn't until sometime in November. However, it is unlikely I will have the umpth to do it any other time, so I rushed to finish this wallpaper by tonight. The main requirements were: A. One character (exception of photographs) - Check!, B. Tears (oh, and do believe me I was tempted to make a couch cry and have an amazing story as to why, but maybe another time) - Check!, C. Night theme - sorta...? Oh, please forgive me! I started this as Miriallia standing by the sea from the middle of the night until the sunrise thinking, but it came out more sunrise than night. However, since she had been waiting there all night, I hope it counts! *crossesfingers*

Basically, I chose Miriallia. For the past week, I've been debating who to wall: Lunamaria, Murrue, or Mir, and you can guess who won. I started a Lunamaria wallpaper, which failed, and never attempted a Murrue. I wanted to do one of the three, because they are my top favorite GS/D girls. However, I just thought for what I wanted that Miriallia worked nicely. The theme of this wallpaper is the introspection of the relationship between Mir and Tolle, and Mir and Dearka. I wanted her to be sad about Tolle, but to also be sad about Dearka, because having a relationship with Dearka is going to take a lot of work ( ^_^') However, I thought she should be sad about being away from him so much, and also sad about remember Tolle ( :( I miss joo, Tolle).

So, other than her relationships, the song "For Good" from the musical Wicked (as performed by Idina and Kristin) was my main inspiration. Although the song is between Elphie and Galinda, I thought it fit what I wanted this wallpaper to be about. Anyhow, you'll notice the vector is a bit sloppy. I'm sorry about that, as I said I was in a rush to finish it today (so I think the overall wallpaper suffered because of that, but it couldn't be helped). I vectored Miriallia from a screencap of when Kira, Cagalli, and Miriallia meet up with reinstated ZAFT pilot Athrun, because there are so few Mir scans (such a shame!)

Well, everything is either painted or vectored, save the soft texture I used from Anime Rain. I still don't know how I feel about this, but (*submit) ... too late! Oh, and yes, my third grade birdies are in fact retarded seagulls, but I still love them.

Thank you for stopping by! Favorites + Comments loved!
