Artist Comment
EDIT:
thanks everyone for your sweet and wonderful comments and faves, I really appreciate it..THANK YOU
Finally done!
my entry for my maiden's gothic contest.
first of all thanks to Rissa-chi and Tina18 for their helps..without you both I wont finished it on time.
and thanks to my maiden staff for extended the contest deadline.
The scan is from here
i enjoyed vectoring both girls though i got slower in some parts like skin, etc.
it confused me whether it should be painted or vectored but in the end i combined it .
Anyway, for final touch, I flatten the layers and then blended it.

Another great piece from you.
It has a different feel from other walls. It feels old and dark. Twisted away from the scan's original colors. All the dust and texture enhances the effect making it look like an aged photograph. The scan was already extraordinary with a frame and profile view of another character or some sort of monster that can tentacle rape. Who is reaching out and around the frame with a hand which seems to be in another dimension.
Removing the original items is a good approach to create a different feel. It makes the wall feel more desolate and lonely. She seems almost like a doll in a doll house. It can't be helped. Flowers are pretty. Even when they are roses with their colors washed out. Maybe signifying that the character's personality might be calm and lifeless without much expression. The cracked glass is a good touch. It adds more to the antique feel the wall is giving me. It also looks similar to a spider web. The web could further represent that she might be a doll trapped and being overlooked by someone. I could go on and on about my view on this wall lol.
I like all the detail in this wall. The chandelier looks very nice. It's almost like a silhouette. The shine and glow add more detail to it and makes it known that it is made of several little parts. The added portraits blend flawlessly with the wall. I like how the portraits were brushed. Lighting and and shadowing is well done.
As for critique, I would have liked to see deeper/darker shadows over all. Mainly on the outfit and roses. It would make everything pop out a bit more. The misty/dust/fog effect really lightens up everything. I was wondering why the chandelier seems out of place. The character is overlaying the chandelier but the furniture she is sitting on isn't. It seems like an error on the artist's part because it looks like there isn't enough room for an object that big to fit in (depth-wise). Unless the chandelier is close to flat and only one side is slightly embossed like those cheap stickers you get from 25 cent machines at the mall. Either way, I think it can look better by making it overlay the character (bring it closer to foreground) or the furniture overlaying it (putting it to background). It's a small detail that is bothering me and maybe someone else can make sense of it.
I might be praising too much but I don't make long descriptive comments often on walls unless they really impress me. You can only write so much about a wall and critique so much without going overboard if there isn't much substance.

I like this wallpaper. The background matches perfectly the girl's attitude and the situation itself. I also like the title, a quotation from the song "Mirror Mirror" from Blind Guardian or from the one by Helloween. (yeah, I know it's a quote from Snow White, but I prefer to think it's from a metal song than from a girlie fairy tale)

Nice vector, it looks gorgeous. And making this black and red certainly makes it look more dramatic. I love the details and the interesting choice of scan; it really does look creepy and old.
I only wish there was more saturation/depth in the colors of her dress and the blacks of the wall and that fuzzy red blur around the bird looks kind of odd, too.
But all in all, this is an awesome wall and you did a great job on it! :)

kristina1234u Apr 18, 2010
wow, really great vector the girl looks really amazing!
Only thing that irks is me, don't know if anyone else noticed this, is that her right hand is backwards! I checked out the original scan and it seems it was a mistake by the original artist actually. But yah when your hand is out like that your thumb is not facing "inwards" or towards your body, it's facing outwards/away from the body. But besiides that (n' it wasn't really your fault either haha) really great wall :D.

Wow at first look i thought it was a painting but as you said on your
description you vectored it! I should say you did an amazing job here!
I like how you vectored the whole scan, nice shadings and toning + the
details are really good. As for the background i really do like the roses
since it really does fit, nice job also on the black chandelier though the
lights lighting is kinda less bright maybe try making it brighter since it affects
the shadowing, the curtains shadings is a-ok as well. The mirror with a women
looks creepy but nice job on the broken mirror part! Lastly the red bird i think
the bird is a-ok too though it looks fuzzy. Overall amazing vector + darkish
themed wall! so +fav! ^^, -
