Dedicated to Tina-tan <3
Cos i love Rahzel and i know you love her too
Uuuuhm.. this is actually how i wanted it to be ---> clicky but due to certain problems with the admitted
resolutions i had to change it
I loved this scan from the first time
i read the chapter and i just knew i had to wall it one day. But at the time i didn't feel like touching photoshop
so i kept postponing it
Then I finally had an urge to do it and thought i'd be able to do it quite fast but I guess I was wrong -.- I was
so afraid I wouldn't be able to capture Rahzel's emotion and expression from the scan, and that would totally
ruin it since her expression was so bittersweet and beautiful.. so I struggled a bit with the eyes and the best way to
make them but I think I was able to nail it *yays * Good thing she has blue eyes that are quite easy to do without
making them look boring
The painting of the face was relatively easy cos I wanted to keep it simple not to draw attention off her eyes (since
they made me go through hell) So it was just a tad of painting a gradient here and there and voila~
Then I got really busy and didn't have the time to touch it for almost a month........... And if I thought her eyes
were hell that was just cos I wasn't considering her hair! Oh boy was it hard <.< First it reminded me why I
always kept a distance from female characters with really long black hair, and I didn't want the hair to seem dull
which is really hard when all the tones we can use are neutral colors *sigh * And when I thought I had finally
understood how to make the hair look decent I came across that bit of hair behind her ear, and I just couldn't make
the hair flow in a decent way and after almost 10 times re-doing it... it still bugs me (but try to avert your eyes from
it k?)
I guess I went a little nuts with the strands but I just had so much fun doing them! Definitely my fav thing in the
painful process that was this wall
Then came the background, the thing I tried to avoid at all costs since clouds are like my nemesis or smth. At first I
did a blue sky but I thought it looked too blue and peaceful (and corny....) and that a sunset would be more dramatic
It's still sucky but I didn't expect it it to look so decent! So don't complain or i'll cry xD no..
seriously
And the title *tan tan taaaan * And whatever I thought about just sounded WAAY too lame and so I did what I usually do, listen to music! And there I was when wmp went nuts and started playing random music (which the darn thing does more often than I'd like) but it was actually a good thing cos it started playing Karen O's “Hello Tomorrow” a song I hadn't listened in ages and just had that sad yet inspiring sound that just fits the atmosphere I was going for the wall
Overall this ended up taking almost 2 months but i'm glad I didn't rush it cos i'm actually satisfied
with the final result
Lastly, dual screen rules! I'm sorry here aren't any decent resolutions but any other way would make the wall
look too weird and just as if her face were slammed into it, not enough room for the sky. Which is a shame cos I wanted
to use it as desktop *sulks *
Anyway, all feedback is appreciated ^^
Oh... a friend was saying how the hair looked complicated but it actually wasn't, the whole thing probably has 7/8 layers at most, I just had fun with blending modes and opacity so it probably looks like it has more layers that the actual number
Geez.. this is way too big of a description

i enjoy her hair, but it doesnt mesh well with the setting because its just shades of grey.
the clouds are also a bit too blurry, though the form looks good -
