its been long time since my last wallpaper.. I ve been busy and also a bit lazy be back walling xD Anyway i'm happy i finally finished this after months of retouching it..
I drew and painted the character with my tablet... i made a bunch
of changes to make her look more feminine and sexier xP
This is the scan.. ![]()
then i worked on the background painting around, playing with the lighting.. the main idea was to use bright contrasting colors.. Finally.. i added the text to make things more fancy and interesting..
ALTERNATIVE VERSION i decided to upload the colored version, since most ppl like that one more.. So for those who love the contrast between black and white like me.. i link the other version here..
1920x1200_____________________________1600x1200
1280x1024
Tools: Photoshop CS3 & wacom intuos 3 Special thanks to @alienzero for standing me, poor u, hugs! xD
For the 100 Themes Project @ Instant Noodles 3. Light
hope u all like this
EDIT: for those wondering.. the shadows on her breats were on purpose xP as if she was wearing a sort of tight outfit, like any superhero.. xD

Just wanted to drop by and tell you that I really like the wallpaper, because each wallpaper is unique and this one appeals to me somehow, even though I never watched the anime or read the manga.
What I like the most are those zippers, which almost seem as if you inverted their colors. I also like the combination foreground and background. I must confess I like the colored version of the wallpaper even more, even though the black and white one has something interesting yet plain to it. Anyway: great job. Thank you for sharing.

This is so effective~ I love negative images and this is the peak of the ice berg, it's so beautiful! The alternate versions are equally as good too, the contrast and lighting in them work really well and make every detail stand out! Great job~!

Nice to see you back to walling :) I like how you re-drew it the picture, and that it still have the sketched look in that's in the original. I also like how you did your signature, I always mean to find a clever way to do that in wallpapers. I like the alternative version better, the bright colors caught my eye more, but they both have a nice style to them.

Its a nice Wall, you work hard.
Like gray scale of color, the brights and sadows, im only think that her rigth brust is very round,may be changing the brigth fix it, but its a little detail, for the rest is a great wall, and i like too the electric blue version.

gonna say i am fan of ur works...i really like the overall atmosphere in this wall...but i need to point out the way u shaded her breasts(come on..i had to look) compare to the scan,it looks like it has been press down or somehow...maybe that's just me!!!!

This looks a lot better from the last time you showed this to me. The textwork looks great. See..you can pull off a text-based background too! =) I love the blues and the lighting in this. Best of all is her hair and eyes. Very well done on that. Although some parts are more sketchy than i think it should be, it's still a good attempt. So nice come back wall! ^_^

I must first start off by saying that this is a beautiful wall the only thing that made me laugh were the boobs they look so umm...round I think the ones in the original drawing look more realistic lol. XD
Once I really got the full view of this I was blown away I mean from the drawing to this takes real skill. The effects are just insane I mean there so polished and the detailing is amazing. You completely succeeded in creating a sexy bad ass woman she looks ready to kiss a guy then beat the crap out of him. XD Above all else this is a new piece of art I can say I've never seen before and anything unique is always a plus with me. You did a fantastic job and should be proud this is going straight to my desktop. A+ and a fav :)

What a really cool wall! Great tablet skills, it really does look good! The whole thing really comes together with the snazzy text, textures and the fractal waves in the BG:) Cant really say which version looks better (I like them both!) In conclusion its an awesome wall and a new fav, thank you for sharing :)

The colors are very cool and refreshing to look at, it makes a cold glow in the wall. Can't say anythin' else, I'm gonna add this to my favorites.

Welcome back Clarings! Another great wall from you. Both versions of this wall are amazing. I like the sketchiness to it, but at the same time I wish it looked a bit smoother. (personal taste I guess) Your tablet skills have really come a long way since the last one I can remember. +FAV
I hope to see more from you soon. (now I need to post a new one... laziness....)

Nice comeback, I love the whole wallpaper there is nothing to say about it. Is just perfect. I like how you paint it and how it looks. Such a beautyfull wallpaper must go on my deskopt +fav

Yeah, Clarings is back to walling and going with a Aquarian Age wallpaper. The anime was designed by my favorite mangaka, so this wallpaper is exactly my taste. And that you made even a lot better, also proves that your skills haven't got rusted. Welcome back ;3 +Fav
PS. Unless others, I like more the original blue version.

A very attractive design, my eye was drawn to it right away. Upon further inspection, I found myself becoming distracted by the boobs... they look very weird to me. "tight" shading is fine as far as the concept goes, but the execution needs a little work. The reflected light is making them take on a dimension that would not work if the model was 3D and you rotated it. The right one, specifically, looks like it's sprouting out of the left one, not out of the chest, and it looks much bigger, and tacked on Mr. Potato Head style, because of the hooked light reflection you placed over the top, and because of the flattened right edge of the left boob.
Unfortunately, the original picture didn't give you much to work with, because those are pretty inaccurate too. It's a common problem when a guy tries to draw things he doesn't have, and doesn't know what they actually do under a shirt, or leather, etc.
Truly, this is intended to be constructive, for the next wall you do. Don't take it too personally; boobs are really hard to get right, along with feet and hands, (oh yeah, the index finger you added on is a little too long.)
Ultimately, I want to leave you with the affirmation that this wall is a great idea. I'm reminded of the 80's movie Tron, which is one of my favorites. hehe.

The inverted color effect is great. Also the concept of wallpaper is wonderful, I'm not too big on dark walls but this one is very attractive with amazing effects that I know nothing of lol. All I can say is that this is truly lovely and I'm happy that I came across it. Nice work!

Woah... You turned a boring scan into something splendid. I must say that this is definitely a beautiful wallpaper.
Oh my gosh, the effects are dazzling. You've managed to portray the woman like she was about to pounce on her opponent. The blue lights and the sunning details make the woman look dangerous and sassy. And the black background is just perfect for her!
Good job!

The colored version is better as the monochrome. I would rather make alternatives with red or neon. The brushes are really good, but there is going a not so good looking line trough the character, guess would be look better without. I know it's a part of the effects, but if you don't look better you might think that is a line on the render itself.
