ZOMG it's NOT a Kino wall!
But it IS a vector trace wall. So boo you, Osi. :P I LIKE tracing, darnit.
When I got manga volume 12 of Spiral, I really liked the cover design. This book introduces a new character, Mizushiro
Hizumi, to the Spiral cast. I don't want to go into any details about his character because it would majorly spoil the
story (and the revelations from manga 11 are best left to when you read that volume) but Hizumi is essentially Narumi
Ayumu's opposite. Like Kanone, he's got a smiling charm that hides something possibly more sinister. The mirroring of
thet wo on the cover then makes sense, with Ayumu in whites and Hizumi in blacks. Within the book, Eyes Rutherford and
Kyrie (a manga-only character) remark that Ayumu and Hizumi are like two sides of a coin; heads and tails; light and
dark.
I traced the image because I wanted to challenge myself with a manga trace, which doesn't have definate boundaries for
colors, so I could see if a hard-shaped trace would look as good as the original. I'm pleased with the results, and may
do more of these style of traces in the future. The background uses a brush I made from an Illustrator symbol (a
feather) because of the whole "angel/devil" imagery that is alluded to, and because feathers are... fun!
EDIT: Oooh crud! I just realized I misspelled Hizumi's name! It's MizUshiro, not MizOshiro. Doh! There were a few other
mistakes in the vector file I fixed as well. Doh -_-
Additional resolutions are now available.

Oooh, pretty pretty~! ^-^ I like the duotoneness (it's a word now :P) of it all. Very intriguing concept, it makes me wish I read the manga so I'd get it more. ^^ Awesome job! I don't think I could ever vector a manga scan, I'd go nuts. @_@

ooooo!!! I like, I like a lot! It's very nice ^-^ only bad thing about it is that you cut off their poor legs ;_;..but other than that, its great! The effects that you used are wonderful, really gives a two-side feel. In other words...fav!!!

Awesome vector work as usual and nice idea of composition / two opposites. The colors melt well together and the motion effect created by the lights really makes us focus on the characters. Nice job.

Uwahhh~ glad you finished this one, Tama-Neko! :D I remember looking through your works-in-progress stuff some days back, and thinking I'd like to see it, hehe~ XD Said new character looks very, very cool. :) <-not up to vol11/12... Love these polar opposite contrasts. :) Good job tracing a manga image, too. Shading looks nice - a little more refined - though that could just be because it's Spiral art. XD In any case, I salute your vectorness.

What I see here is an awesome vector, excellent lightning and a bg with great effects.
I don't know what lese to write to fill the 64 characters, but this is a nice wallpaper for sure. :)PS: Only the high brightness of some areas keeps me away from adding this too my favourites.
