Amid all my horrible projects and schoolwork, I shall attempt submission of one of my older walls.
I love Kingdom Hearts, strangely Re:CoM ranks as my favourite, even though it's a more low-brow release and Marluxia was slaughtering me at the end...
This wallpaper was based on something Marluxia said to Namine, along the lines of "your hero is coming" or something like that, I can't really remember (sadly) and I don't have time to check. And Marluxia uses flowers (!) so here is the Princess of Rose, waiting for her hero to come.
The inspiration also came from the game Rule of Rose, one with a lovely story but clumsy gameplay :( The rose, butterfly and bird and parts of the thorns were vectored from the game cover, and the thorns extended and leaves added in by myself. The thorns were vectored unevenly on purpose anyway, I thought it gave the wall a better effect. I put Riku at the side because that's where the WIndows sidebar is and I don't want to block anyone else... Doesn't help that Riku isn't a very favourite character of mine .........
Namine is the only one in colour because she's the only one who knows what is happening and is fully aware of her actions. The others (Sora esp, hahahaha) are like....stumbling in the dark. Especially poor Kairi, who doesn't even know anything and won't ever find out. Oh yes I couldn't really vector in Namine properly because my scan was really small....even though I feel that her lack of detail actually looks fine but do comment if you think otherwise (but don't say anything about her eye, I tried to do it properly and it looked like she was squinting/frowning, so I left it as it is).
Textures from stock.xchg or celestial star or aethereality.net, I can't remember where...Text is from dafont.com
Thanks everyone who commented! I tried to play around with the textures a little...:)

I think Roxas should have been in this wallpaper too. I mean Namine and Roxas are just like Sora and Kairi. But I'm guessing you couldn't find a decent roxas scan. But in all it's a good wall, but that key character Roxas isn't in there. It's like bread with no butter. ( T_T)/

Wow, that's an impressive creation, i really like it. I'm a fan of KH and this wallpaper is very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Definitely liking this one. I would also have liked to see Roxas in this, but its still a very nice wall. I'm sad that you dont like riku (hes my fave) but his position actually wouldn't cause any problems on my desktop, so no complaints there :) I really like the overall concept of this wall, and i think I'm going to have to fave it :)

This is nice wall i love the smoothness of this maybe you over blured the background but it still looks nice well done, faves

Very cool concept for a wall~
I like the work you did with the silhouettes and colors. Nice vectoring and good execution. Like everyone else, I'm wish the blurring was a little less present, but that's ok ^^
Anyway, great work~! ^^

the arrangement is just so cool ... (XD) awesome wall ...
4 years, 2 months ago
Really impressive! I love how you place all the characters and make it into a silhouette. And the thorns, its just impressive. Oh, and the key, it adds to the impressiveness. But, it is even better if you could make it into a wide screen like 12800x800. Anyway, nicely done! Still get a fave+

Simple, yet effective. What some walls really need sometimes. Not sure about the characters, but it still looks great.

this is a really interesting wall i like the idea of how you blended and mixing everything together very abstract but tell a really nice story behind it =D would be even better if you have a bigger reso and slightly sharpen the silhouette figures abit will make the wall even better

:O I really love this style! Like the use of silhouettes and the storybook/stained(?) feel. I agree that maybe a little less blur would be better, but it still looks wonderful.

I love it! I didn't recognize it as Kingdom Hearts at first though. It somehow reminds me of Nightmare Before Christmas, which I LOVE!

Cool merge between KH and Rule of Rose. You grasped Namine and Kairi's general concept very well. Nice job.

I really like the style of this one too. I don't like the color scheme very much but the old-paper background is pretty cool and fits pretty well

I think it's really interesting how Sora, Riku, and Kairi are all in silhouette, with Naminé in full color. Along with the red rose, it's a great way to make her stand out. A comment was made about including Roxas in this paper. I think that could have been interesting but the paper works just fine without him.
Simple and clever. Great wallpaper. :)
