Artist Comment

From Gankutsuou/The Count of Monte Cristo. I like the strange stylings of this anime, and the patterns, while initially annoying, are actually pretty fun to look at after you get used to them. I decided to make a wall and found an image out of Animage 9/04.
I wanted to reproduce the image as closely as possible, as if this were official artwork. This is more intensive than per my norm as I did the outlines AND redrew the patterns. Some are actually fully redrawn; some are from my website and some are filter-and-brush-work in order to mimic the original.
For the background, I originally was going to make a watch like the pocketwatch the Count drops and Albert finds in episode 1. Somehow, as I was messing around in Illustrator, I got a sun-and-moon clock design instead. I realized it was fitting; the Count is in golds and represents the sun while Albert is in blues and represents the moon. A few textures courtesy of my previous works added an aged feeling to the background. Here is a clean image of the clock; a lot of the details are hidden in this image.

    Oh my god, what an amazing wallpaper! It really captures the feel of Gankutsuou, especially since you used those bright colors and huge chunks of patterned/textured space in the background. I seriously thought it was part of the original image. Thanks for sharing it with us! ^__^

    I realy like this wall about gankutsuou!
    I'm french and i know the book of Alexandre Dumas (the writter of "le comte de monte cristo") and this anime is very good! i like very much Edmond Dantes, he is like Alucard sometimes...as mysterious as him!
    very good work

    Gankutsuou. The anime of colors... and more colors! Already had this one from an image board, but allow me to say thanks anyway. Since the official site hasn't put any walls up yet, this is one of my desktop's few hopes.

    Gankutsuou is awesome and you did such a wonderful job on this wallpaper. I even have this as my desktop wallpaper. Please do more? you're very talented! Do you think you could make one from the spread from Newtype Japan Feb. 2005 that someone posted? I'd love to see one made of the Albert/Count side!! xD
