Artist Comment

For some reason that hasn't been explained to me (beyond a generic BotChii report), the previous version of this wallpaper (entitled "Autumn Breeze") was deleted for being taken from another site. Rather bizarre considering I was showing the image-in-progress to the #mt channel as I was working on it, and getting good feedback from the channel (except from Mr. "One More Leaf" Rex XP)
Anyway, it's not really a problem because there were some glaring issues in that version which I reworked; I would have deleted it myself and replaced it with this one.
Anyway, I wanted to make a seasonal wall, and found this image in my gallery, but it was too early to go for a Christmas theme. With their snug scarves and coats, it set the mood for an autumn image as I started layering golden-orange gradients. I traced the image in Illustrator, created the brick wall with Photoshop paths, ganked the clouds and leaf images from Illustrator's premade symbols (nature set) and found a cool image of a street lamp (from Russia, off of Google's image search) which I redrew in Illustrator, put it all together and tadah. I removed the oversized leaf, made the bricks more proportional, and changed the title to something less generic and more specific for this image - namely leaves, and a new start.
Additional resolutions are available at DA! Desktop Anime.

  6. Katzbalger Oct 07, 2004

    This was removed because it comes from another web site (Da!), as it says down the bottom right hand of the wallpaper. I was the one who reported it. If you work for Da!, I appologiese, but I suggest you put your own information at the bottom of the page, not Da's, to prevent further confusion.

  7. Tama-Neko Oct 07, 2004

    Um, DA! IS my website. It even says "Wallpaper by Tama-Neko" and my nick is, indeed, Tama-Neko. It's also linked in my userpage and my signature. The signature on my wallpaper is the exact same as every other anime wallpaper in my gallery, so it's IS my own information at the bottom of the work. Additionally, at the time I posted the first version I hadn't even uploaded it to DA! yet. -_-

  8. shinta Oct 07, 2004

    I think Katzbalger doesn't know Tama runs DA. Maa ne... >_>

    lol putting the drama aside =p

    excellent detail and design ^^ the lamps are l337 indeed XD I can only pray to dhali lama to be able to vector as good as tama ^^

  12. Noctum Oct 07, 2004

    The deletion also means that one of the mods here didn't believe that you created the wallpaper, too. -_-

    Anyway, the wallpaper looks indeed better now.
    I'm not really happy about the double text (text behind text), though.

  14. KorganoS Oct 07, 2004

    I love the Rod the Tv wallpaper. the yellow and orange or red background really compliments it/

  23. Ixion Dec 15, 2004

    the text is too small/blurry. Cute and great use of color, but as I mentioned on your prior wall, you need to focus on the extraction and stop using glow. I'm sure with more practice, you'll get more adept at it. G'luck!
