Please full view.
So far all the walls in my "gallery" here are all of girls, so this one's to break the ice. And what a way to do that with one of my fav characters from Soul Eater: Kid-kun! X3 Soul Eater's a great anime/manga and I highly recommend it. ^_^
The wall's based on a screenshot from the first anime ending. Most of his body was either cut off or hard to see, so I redrew a lot of stuff. I used another screenshot from episode 15 as a reference for Liz and Patty (the guns). Edit: and so that's why the guns/hands are more detailed too - even though I liked the thick lines for the rest of him. The wall was mostly made in photoshop, but I used illustrator to outline the guns and hands. And yeah, doing one was kinda long so I got lazy and used the same lines for the other gun/hand. XP As usual, lines were vectored, and everything else was painted by tablet. Are the glares too distracting? Well too bad - they're compositional elements and I like them.
See the general process (and screenshot) here:
The reason for the sig bar at the bottom in the final pic is cause after testing it on my monitor I didn't like how it was positioned (task bar cut off his elbow slightly), so I moved the pic up a notch.
For those wondering about the title, it's actually the same as one of his theme songs, and is one of my favs from the anime. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLus1f011zc
Time taken: one weekend (gahh I rushed it) Textures from http://www.imageafter.com/index.phpSome splatter and grunge brushes from Deviant art.
Hope you like! I love to read your comments! ^_^

Finally a good Kid wall . The gun is so detailed and awesome that it makes his clothes look too simple and the lines are a tad too thick. but that's just minor. Great job ! +fav

Hey Nysh, great job on this, a definite favorite from me ^_^ This came out really well, I'm glad that I got a previewed version of it last night, way to go.

Good stuff. Love the glare effects on the guns. The background is very nice and fits well because it looks like fire or destruction... :)

Kid is my fave too, he's too funny with his constant OCD habits, I always thought the scenes from the 1st ed were wall worthy as well, you did a great job recreating everything, the glares are fine for me cause they're the same as the ones in the scene, it's definitely the style of the anime and it's very well done, looking forward to more of your walls~

Oooo! *tries to resist the urge to "kyaa"*
That's a fantastic image from the ending, and I'm glad you took the time to wall it. Someone else made an awesome Blackstar wall, but I agree that Death the Kid is the coolest. Great job with the colors and with the guns - I appreciate your attention to detail there. The wall may not be bilaterally symmetrical, but I think Kid himself would give it his stamp of approval. ;) Great work!

Very well done. I'm amazed at the great job you did of adapting it from the picture in the first ending.

I just knew that someday somebody will wall this awesome screenshot~ And I was waiting for this day, Because I just love this screenshot as much as I like your amazing wall! Too bad you didn't add the grunge texture like the one on the screenshot. Anyway what I just want to say is that I love your wall and I'll think about placing it on my desktop ^-^ +Fav~ Kepp up the great work~!

Oh geez, I'm becoming a fan girl of your art.
I love the painting of this one, the hair is what draws me more in, but the dynamic colors you got mixing with the fire and such is awesome. I love the vector, although never seen the show only seen screencaps. I love his eyes the most and the gun detail is great. Nice effect on them as well, really gives out a power force feeling. Kinda like when activating your innocence in D.Gray-man :3 Great one again Nysha.

If you cut it diagonally, the proportions based on Kid's position make it symmetrical in terms body volume, so it works reasonably well ^_^

I haven't watched Soul Eater yet, but that character really looks badass. You do justice to his expression with the lighting of the piece.

This is crazy!! I've never seen this anime, but I've heard good things about it. This wallpaper makes me want to see it even more. XD Holy crap, you're so amazing! A weekend? That's it?? How on earth?! You totally did not rush it...although, I'm quite amazed at how you could make this beautiful piece of artwork in such a short time.
I love the colors, the outlines, just everything. Gawd, the guns look so shiny and real. I'm just a bit annoyed by some of the super crisp jaggedy lines, but whatever! This is so great~ I don't know how you do it! *__* You stun me every time. To go from that screenshot to this...it's just...wow. XD I suck with words. *faves*

wow... simply wow... Death the Kid is my favorite character in Soul Eater and you have officially done him justice. The overall quality and shading is beautiful and the shining on the guns is an elegant touch. The contrasting background is also nicely done although more could be done with it. The simplicity is nice though. Def a fav, hope this gets featured!

I like the thick lines. The shines on his gun remind me of Gurren Lagann, ha ha. The colors are lovely too.

I think the reflections off the guns is a bit over the top...But then again, anime and manga are sometimes at their best when a bit over the top ^_^
Very good idea with this wall, as well as a good job!
