Hi there, I found some time for myself to create a wallpaper.
I love the artists work (Yoshitaka Amano) - his artworks are very impressive.
Well, I know that DernierCri created a similiar wallpaper for himself, though,
don't say that this is a rip or something alike. The psd-files'
general size is about 48 megs large - didn't count the layers anyway ;) .

Well the text on it is part of the lyric to "Traumreise" from a band called Saltatio Mortis.
I chose the text to stay in german 'cause it's meant to be a personal wallpaper for myself mainly.

    Asahi :D

    Good to hear from you - glad you're not giving up on gfx'ish things ^^
    So may I start with the comment for this nice wp of yours ..

    a boy and a fairy ..
    a man and a women .. all these characters seem to share a feeling of love at least
    mostly it still seems that each character on this wallpaper seems more different than
    his/her follower.
    The lovers on the left and those on the right side, not only seem different from their
    looks, but the side on the right seems as it ignores the its opposite completely -
    lost in a kiss.
    The left couple looks as both of them fear what lies behind that large stone plate
    and probably as well what is shown on it too.
    Protecting his beloved fairy the guy on the left prolly thinks about the opposites
    of their love for each other as he would discover what lies behind the wall of stone
    which also seems to be in motion; falling to the ground..

    The right side is fairly hard to describe, yet they do look as they are one merged
    form. One being part of the other and vice versa - they don't give a glimpse or
    whatsoever about the things that are behind the wall.
    The wall itself shows an interesting figure on it too - could be an angel or
    a viewer from a dimension apart from this dreamy-seeming world.

    Traumreise - which means as much as Dream-Voyage or Journey of a Dream
    seems to be a title fitting into this atmosphere; created by the significant dreary
    colors and the almost surreal seeming of the image in general and the way
    how the scans were put together - making all of it look like a painting from earlier
    times. Gorgeous.
    How the characters on the left are holding on to each other, gentle and caring -
    being held in their own warm blurry feeling of binding love; the lovers on the right
    in their ecstasy of kissing - sharing feelings with a more intense way of meaning.

    The clock which is barely, but still, visible could (in my interpretational opinion)
    symbolize how time can extend a love (right side) and how it can cause a slight sort of trembling
    for those who are afraid to lose what they just 'gained' (left side).

    In technical ways, there's not really a flaw I could tell - I like the warm soft looks of this
    wallpaper - good extraction, management of layers, typo and colors =)

    Theres not much left to say from my side 'cept of
    Good work Asahi, please keep on improving yourself throughout time day by day as you are.

    +fav :d


    p.s.: for those who aren't able to understand the other two lines of german text,
    here's a short translation that should do the job ...

    "When limits are no longer binding,"
    "When sanity blurs through minds' intoxication.."

    Hi Asahi - Nice wall you have here, very complex and mysterious. Beautiful, really. Nice to have you back and I hope you are well.

    That's pretty ... very artistic.
    I like the colors a lot, yellow and green.
    I just love the fonts you chose. I'm a big fan of special fonts. :)
    i don't find anything to add in this.
    It's a pretty surrealist scene you made.

    That's really gorgeous! The layout of the wallpaper is really well done and the images go really well with the setting. Wonderful job!
    Thanks a lot for sharing!

  13. StarCentury Apr 06, 2005

    Wow, Asahi! XD Compared to DC's Amano wallie, your Amano wallie has much more bolder colors and mimicks the painting style just as wonderful! :) I see you've added two lovers on the right side which enriches the artistic wallpaper! I dunno which one I like best, DC's or Asahi's? I can't decide! ^_^' I love them both!

  14. Frosty Apr 06, 2005

    great looking wallie. ^^
    looks pretty good and kind of abtract-ish looking. X)
    and just like that painting like concept. ^^
    good one, nice job. ^^
    +fav for a job well done. ^^

  15. Susi-chan Apr 06, 2005

    WOW! Absolutely stunning!
    I absolutely love the composition and the artwork
    of Yoshitaka Amano certainly is gorgeous!
    A definite +fav for me.

    Ich bin echt platt,
    muss ich mir gleich als Hintergrund setzen! *g*
    *knuddel*

  16. sadbird Apr 06, 2005

    great one my friend (even though i can't see it XD XP XP but (as usual ) i'll add i to my favorites to see it later and because i know that it is a wonderfuk wall :d:d:d:d:d:d:d

  17. Susan-chan Apr 06, 2005

    wow! this wallpaper is a bit different stlye than your others! but it looks very interesting and i like it:)

  18. Yina Apr 06, 2005

    yes, you're right.. the art is really impressive... somehow abstract.. maybe because the way of colouring is different than the other "normal scans" here. You've chosen great colours, they all fit well together! :D it doesn't look like a real wallpaper for me, looks more like an original work from the artist Yoshitaka Amano... so, great job on the composition.. I think that when you look at a wallie and you can't say if it is really a wallpaper or an original art, then you've done a great job on that wallie.. don't know if you know what I'm trying to say.. ^_^'

  19. chibikko Apr 06, 2005

    oh you're saying it's not a rip but you can't say why it's not a fake of DernierCri, can you? aaaaw it's quite lazy just to put artworks together and i thought you're totally into super high quality. sure it looks great but i liked your older works better.

  20. Adrima Apr 06, 2005

    I just love this wallpaper you created!
    I adore this romantic scene and even the colours you take
    this is defenitelly a +fav for me ;D

  21. amy Apr 06, 2005

    You know...I think Vincent said it best.

    Well I think it's beautiful. I really do like the distortion and the coloring. +fave for me...

  22. DarkCrimson Apr 06, 2005

    Oh wow this one is quite different from your Works before^_^

  23. Athrun Apr 06, 2005

    Hm... interesting... ^ ^

    i like the colors and the colors and theme of this wall. Kinda funny to hear me say that, since I hate the color yellow. XD

    Don't have many suggestions or stuff to say, besides it's awesome. :P

  24. ultimaslair Apr 07, 2005

    Lovely. Different from most other walls. I really love the tone and the sort of...sketch like feel there. Great work!
