I'm really sick of this wallpaper. I usually don't spend a lot of time composing wallpapers; it's usually a trace and a quickie background. Here I had to extract the character and rediscovered WHY I vector trace so much - I absolutely HATE character extraction. Then it took two days off and on to get the background clouds moody and another two to get the actual coliseum columns to look decent. Regardless, I'm fairly happy with the results. When I saw Gladiator with my roommate again over the past weekend, I looked at the DVD cover and wanted to emulate it using Kino characters. This one features Shizu (and his dog Riku), although I couldn't find a decent picture of him facing the viewer (as in the Gladiator DVD cover) so I ended up using a scan of the NA 2nd DVD. I'd like to make a Kino version, simply replacing Shizu with Kino. At least I know of at least 2 good pictures of her that I can use... One final note - everything was made in Photoshop, except the scan, of course.

Not bad for two days work on the scan.

It's probably an age to you, but Macca's-fast in my opinion...
Thanks for including--! (tho' I can't imagine a Shizu-only wall =x)
The fur must've been an absolute nightmare.

*hugs riku*
wow you finally finished it! and it looks very nice )=3
nice look. i like how everything flows and the scan doesn't look alien to the rest of the picture.
Don't get me wrong, I like the final result as I mentioned in the description. I just got really sick of working on it for so long.
