You are my best Friend Hachi - Roku

Oooooh~

I really like the painting you've done on the car! The soft blends and highlights work really nicely and make the hood look pretty~ (if cars can be pretty haha).

Nice shading and general hues. The background is done very well. The glows and lighting on the boy's pants are also done very nicely.

Mmm.. the shades on the boy's shirt and his hair is a little mismatching of the wall's general soft colors in my opinion, but it's only minor :)

Overall, great work ^^

Wow, I can really see the effort you've put into this, great job!

Here are a few tips to make it the scene more effective, I hope you don't see this as harsh criticism. I realized you've vectored a scene from a manga page and basically coloured it. You took out the shadowing on the bottom right and left to change the lighting, a very good choice. However, doing that should also change the shadowing in the garage. The manga basically focuses on the car, but your wallpaper focuses on two subjects. Uh... what I mean to say is that your car's shadow is a bit too heavy. If you wanted to stress on the idea of 'friendship', adding some old parts or etc. in the background could have made the scene more nostalgic.

In any case, it's a great effort!

On a side note, have you tried adding textures to your walls? I took a brief look at your gallery and thought that adding textures might give your wallpapers some more spice. If you know what I mean...

I got to say the thumbnail looks great, lighting is very good

Great work on colorise this manga image! You chance the hood color of the car to black. A detalist fan can complain, being that the black hood is for the new model, with the engine bought for bunta on Initial D 2st stage (anime).

But, i love-it!(XD)

this one really has some impressive elements to it. nice job.

Wow..turning some black and white picture into something like this????U put a lot of effort there..I salute to you...but...why it didn't come in widescreen ratio....T.T

love initial d, love trueno, awesome wall

ow wow^^ i thought for a minute it was vectored from movie screenshot... but definitely this b/w manga became movie screenshot itself cool man^^

Droool, That's some kick-ass re-CG'ing you did there. The colors, paint technique and soft edges look absolutely fantastic on the car. In fact, it's the best looking car I've ever seen in a painted image. Takumi's hair and t-shirt look a bit odd, but no real complaints there. The one thing that is keeping this wall from being sub-zero cool is something I can't fully blame on you, but the perspective isn't right at all. I know you 'just' re-cg'ed the scan, so the perspective there is already off. I think though that you could've made that wooden plate/fence against the wall align with the stone texture and make the white wall on the left more straight (vertically).

Still, this is one amazing wallpaper that definitely deserves to be faved.

By the way, nice personal touch to replace the seats with actual racing seats ;)

wow and i thought i'd be the first one to do an ID wall ;) awesome job, you really nailed it!

The car was so.. Realistic. Your re-cg is the finest, sir. +favs

This is freaking cool. It was a long wait...its kind of rare to find a worthy Ae86 walley! nice one!8)E

Thanks to do live again Initial D (n_n)-b

Ooh yay, an Initial D wallpaper. :) I think you did awesome! Going from the b/w scan to this~ Wow. I especially love how you vectored/painted the hachi-roku. *__* Looks almost real! I just have some minor problems with Takumi's shirt...and, well, him overall. ^^; I guess I just think he pops out too much from the wall, and the shading looks off. He looks more "cartoony" compared to the realistic looking 86. But everything is really awesome! :3 You worked very hard, and cause I love Initial D so much, I'm faving~ Great job! Just work on the shading a bit. :)

put aside everything else.....because of the lighting, i'll have to fav u wall!!!!!

OMG this is like a super awesome wall. I'm a huge fan of Initial D and appreciate this wall. The techniques you used to paint the manga scan are flawless. Also the image you chose is perfect and it represents the bond with Tak and his car. Very well done on this wall.

Love the AE86 and Initial D, gets my vote lol

The shadowing are great~ but i don't think the 2 little rocks(maybe rocks) on the ground can left such a long shadow, and if the texure of wall can make it look older,I think it'll be better~ Anyway, It's surprise that you can make the original manga into color effect!!! Just keep on with your nice job!

wow,this is really nice,the car looks really realistic... I like the way you colored this,it's really rare to see a wall that looks like an actual scene that can happen in real life,and this one is just like that... I like the soft light you used for this wall,the colors are really peaceful and easy to look at,this wall is a pleasant one to look at... The only thing that disturbs that peacefulness is the logo...I think you should remove it... Also,those cracks should have more depth in my opinion...this way they look just like some kind of dirt,and not a crack... Even with these small faults,I still like this wall a lot!Nice work,and keep it up! +fav

OMG!! Why the hell this wallpaper is B rated?? /(O_O)/ Really that shocked me it deserves A+++

Well, I like how you colored the scan, The colors are very suitable without doubt =D It looks like real WOW!! =D Well, I don't have much to say but this is quite great wallpaper.

+FAV! +Download!

very much work

Wow! Amazing work! specially car!

i never really liked cars until one day my bf made me play initial D and it was fun! this wallpaper makes me want to watch the anime now (XD)

nice work from making a black and white image to colour. ^^/

Ohhh mannnnnn I really love this wallpaper! +fv for sure!!!!

Brings back all the good memories.... To this day I am still waiting for the continuation of Initial D......... PLEASE CONTINUE IT!!!

Wow this wall is amazing.. How could it be so overlooked?!?! You deserve an S for this. +fav

(~_~) It is wonderful since as, you painted this drawing. The shades and clear dark at this work they made me astonished . You are really a genius of the digital drawing. I believe that so much work has remuneration and one sees it in this wonderful wallpaper. Thank you for doing these so beautiful works. Congratulations and he is still taking delight with your wallpapers (n_n)~

i would have thought that some of these scan would have been taken from the anime series and not the manga. Though this one is better than the rest so far for initial D

AE86 and takumi love this picture every detail in it is simpli perfect, well done ;)

I love it! Wish, I could do something like that, too; nice job!

There's a lot of drama in this wall. Even if it's just like an ordinary picture. The drama is there in a sense that the main character (I forgot his name) is preparing to roll out with his Trueno 86. The highlights of the car, the gradual blurring shadow of the main character in the sunset, and the rest of the wall is well thought off, and skillfully executed.

I have nothing else to say except, FAVE

This shocked me. The car looks amazing, and I absolutely adore the title. I can't believe the original image was a panel from a manga scan. The coloring is just superb. I love it.

Nice enhancement on the image, and it really suits the ambiance between the two, its like they're communicating each other.

Fantastic. I don't think I've ever come across a more awesome Initial D wallpaper.

wonderful work, i love this wallpaper !

*******awsome, new fave..

Great work, this wallpaper is amazing! Great choice of color!

Just Love Initial D!

suma baka na!!! what a nice view!! amazing
