Never heard of the anime, but I love the grungy looking background. The colours are brilliant and the background and foreground actively look as if they're meant to be together. Great characters and altogether, a very impressive scene ^^ .
Artist Comment
For the words are contempt of comprimise
the walls have already been severed
the city runs amuck from the vile grotesqueries
these fog like people roam like ghosts
ever peering to what love has to say to them
the crows have flown so high...
For our love will never be the same....
Dedicated to Crapmonster
for his walls never ceases to amaze me and because hes on a walling streak! XD
AT last after 3 weeks of no walls i finally scrapped up little of my computers bloody RAM and made a wall i truly was amazed and excited because the aura of it coming to me was a blast from my grunge skillz. Kudos to Nuriko for providing the scan and Yoshitoshi Abe for making me have his newest creations of godly proportions!! I used mostly some stain brushes to depict a dark scene almost like in a coming of a storm when the clouds are dark and the shrubs and fauna are dark as well. The city was an easy picking cos it was just abstracted motion blurred excellence and the people and birds hold a significant role to this wall.
The little text namely "Ito ang paraan para mahaharapin ng aking Diyos" (Sorri to the Flips cos my tagalog is sketchy... >_> ) means this is the only way to face God....and the rest you can figure it out! ^ ^
Lots of burning, duplicate, overlayed and experimental design here and there...Love how the text turned out and the insignia which was a breeze to make in such a short time span. So all in all it was 46 layers and 4 hours of workage baby! :p
More resolutions in Imanimetions.net once i put it up on the server
Dont worry Shinta and sammo.... o_O
Hope ya likey! ^ ^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Personal intent:
I could never understand most people in the world nowadays cos i dont seem to care anymore at what theyre doing...Ive
always said that theres always someone for everyone and because of that i forget even the meaning of it, cos ive given
up! Maybe someday i might find someone who is looking for the right person and it might be me but for the mean time ill
just let God do his stuff and his plans for me.

My god, this is some of your darkest work to date and I've gotta say that I love it. That cityscape and the dark and murky fog covering, what seems to be dead ppl walking around, just make this wall ooze with death and decay. This one deserves to be a highlighted submission on the frontpage man :)

The entire atmosphere makes me think of the song "When It's all Burning" from Strata.
Due to Yoshitoshi's drawing style, though, the characters seem quite a lot sharper than the bg.
