Ok, I looked a while ago trough the xxxholic gallery and I was like "WHA? no Amewarashi? no way T-T"
I mean Yuuko's like really awesome and all that but Ame just rocks my socks >_> I mean she's my favorite and Not seeing her here at all kinda makes me sad, I wish she was more popular cause she's just too cute. Anyway, this is actually my second project with her, the previous one is like 50% done and it's been stalled for months, the reason is, her hands, gosh clamp people what's with those hands? it pissed me off cause no matter how I changed them it still didn't looked right. But enough of that here's the original from shuushuu Click As you can see I made lots of changes, added more detail in her hair, like extra lines more shadows and some highlights, but now I see that you can barely see them since is resized from 3000 something height and width. Also I changed her hand, made it a little shorter :hmpf: the eyes and that's about it. I really like her here since she's sort of smiling and that's rare.
For the background at first I wanted to paint the flowers and I did, but I didn't quite clicked with the vector so I vectored some, and no, it's not the same, I vectored two sets of different colors from this Click I had to reconstruct parts since none of the flowers were complete, it was a pain but I'm pleased with the result. The leafs are pretty much done by myself, I did the best I could so don't complain d: Plus it's my first time doing hills and birds XD and yeah, I like the umbrella this way better, bu hu.
Time of work, 3 days maybe.. I lost count since I've been slacking off all week and all of the days looked the same.

Anyway like it or not, I really worked hard and I'm satisfied. Any thoughts about it are welcomed.

And a darker version since I like darker walls better d: click I almost forgot, the texture is from deviant art, thanks.


Edit: UPDATED:: woo. I hope it's better, Thanks to Melfina for the brushes. And the umbrella is vectored from this : Click

    I like it Tina-chan, is an great wall :D
    The flowers are very pretty and she's also very well vectored. CLAMP's hand are really hard to make, well CLAMP is hard to vector :) but you did a great job ;)

    nooo the green is way too green, make it less saturated and more towards the cyan or yellow spectrum, same with her hair its way too red --usually when you shade and pick colors you should change the hues and stuff to get the richness without making everything too saturated
    the main thing is that i cant tell what time of day it is supposed to be--if its dusk/night, shadows should be more blue but remmeber to use highlights to not make things so dark. also about the lights, just duplicate the layer on top and make it whiter--it will make them actually glow, same with the glow in the eyes >_>
    loll i feel horrible for making such a harsh comment but simple walls need the right color variation to make them effective.
    that being said the darker version looks much better and i think you if you play with the green/red in that version + put some lighting you can get a really great wall out of it =]

    You're right. There's no Ame-warashi here ^^
    Anyways, awesome job as usual. And I just love those flowers! >.<

    yay! ame warashi. finally someone made a wallpaper with her =D
    actually i also wanted to vector her in the past and started but I couldn't think of a nice and fitting background.
    glad you saved me some time=D

    it's a nice wall overall
    but i kind of agree with vitaa on the colors
    right now it's pretty flat
    and some parts are to colored

    I like the girl, she's cute and had nice hair.
    The vector is nice, I really wish the dress had more details
    and wasn't just plain black.
    The leaves are way too green, they need shade and
    lighting changes. I like the flowers, their colored well and are a nice
    addition. I'm not sure what the brown thing is in the back...doesn't fit
    at all and isn't appealing, also is too smudged.
    Also, I really would've liked for you to have kept the original
    design of the umbrella. I don't like how simple it looks and it actually looks
    rather dull and just weird.
    I like the concept and idea, I just think it needs more work.
