Baka! ouchi ni kaeru…

What can I say? I really like these wacky types of series. The fact that Oonuma Shin is directing it makes the whole thing even better. Anyways, since the series is almost ending, I decided to make a wallpaper of it (simple as that). Give something to those less popular series out there…

Plus I think it’s about time for me to share/upload another wallpaper in here.

Image:

There was this one shot at the very end of the ending credits of the series with all the guys hanging out together (“chillaxing”… as if) that I really liked.

Maybe it was the angle of the shot or maybe it was the altered character designs that caught my attention. Anyways, I really liked it and I wanted it for my desktop… reason enough to use it.

Ideas and stuff:

  • Took a screenshot of that scene and vectored it using Illustrator (characters + bench). Process = trace lines + add color… a rather amazing thing that could make anyone fall asleep by just watching it or reading about it.

  • I created the BG from scratch also using Illustrator.

  • I imported the vectors into Photoshop to work on the “all-mighty” textures, lighting effects, etc, etc, etc.

  • I added more things to the overall scene like paper exams (baka characters = failing grades), a couple of soda cans, a camera (for Tsuchiya’s perversions), a manga book, etc, etc, etc… just to make it visually more interesting (to be honest, in the end, I did it just for the sake of having more fun with the wallpaper…).

  • I changed the “glowing” sakura petals from the source pic (screenshot) for something else (too many sakura petals floating around in a lot of wallpapers already, making one more = not fun at all).

  • I changed the characters overall color scheme from the source pic for their colors in the anime (ED not include) and scans. I also added a bit more shading to the characters…

  • I changed the characters’ outlines from black to color.

Screenshot (source pic):

Progress, resources used, scribbles, etc (chart made just for fun - not to take too seriously):

Final something:

Boring weekend = time to make a wallpaper.

This wallpaper was made for pure fun and nothing more. The time I spent on it was kinda short (no enough free time theses days), but worth it (I had fun that’s why, so no regrets whatsoever). Comments are welcomed (any type). Only WS version available.

Anyways, have a good one and enjoy this one of the kind “baka” wallpaper… I’m out.

Today’s keyword = fun

I like where you placed the leaves. It looks like you're taking a picture while you're on a tree. Also, it looks like a picture from an anime magazine like Newtype. You definitely fooled me. Very nice wallpaper.

wow this really didn't catch my attention at all, but when i full viewed it i found out that this wall is just so awesome. wish those were some other characters cause i don't like their design much, but still i think what you did paid off completely. i saw the work in progress and i think it would have been cuter if you left her with blush. also i love the idea of remaking the colors, its much better now.

well whole wall is pure awesomeness but its sad it didn't catch the attention of other people T_T+

Respect for making the background from scratch. I suppose that took some work. Should point out that some of the objects you put in look a tad bit fake (like the cans and the camera, esp. the camera which looks more like it's made from cardboard). Maybe a little more detail would've been nice but still praise for the general feel and overall effect. Clean vector w/ only some minor mistakes but the problem is the screenshot you used coz in that screenshot, some of the characters (esp. Hideyoshi) look a bit off wrt the rest of the anime. Also, I would have opted for slightly lighter outlines for the characters since you're using such soft outlines for the background. Nevertheless, I like some of the subtle touches you put like the graffiti and the texturing. Overall, it's convincing enough to be passed off as official art if you don't scrutinise too much.

All in all, +fav

Ah, this is one of those wallpapers that are 'just very good'. Quality vectoring, interesting composition and a great overall progress. The result might not be jaw-dropping, but it's definitely nice to view. I love your choices for colored strokes, custom background and added features like the leaves (including the shadow of a tree in the background, so you know where the leaves are coming from). It shows you've got a great eye for these things and I greatly respect that.

Great job and I'm looking forward to see more from you!

That looks really great, you so seldom see wallpapers for shows so focused on the girls featuring the guys XD The background you created looks perfect too, very anime styled and a great perspective (much better than the one in the screen shot!)

I agree.

The wall looks a bit plain in thumbnail but when you full view it looks gorgeous. I like all the texture you put into the background. It's just the right amount. The process was very interesting to see and the hard work paid off.

My only problem with the wall is that the characters don't look like themselves in the anime. As mentioned, the problem was the source. It would have been a good amount of work reworking their faces lol.

Good job.

Uwahh fantastic job! There's just so much detail~~ A perspective that's not often walled, as well. I feel I should mentioned how good the sidewalk looks... usually when people try to texture ground it looks very fake and/or out of place.

Hey! this one is a cool concept! Nice references you got there and put them in a single wall. The vector is great + the bg fits everything. The best part is those yellow leaves falling them instead sakura petals. Overall nice concept! +fav! ^^,

Wow, I can't believe that you say didn't spend that long on this! The vectoring is great, especially from that screencap! And the background is very nice as well! I really like the colors. The show turned out to be a bit of a disappointment to me, haha, I was expecting it to be funnier. Anyway, fav!

I was attracted by the thumbnail.

Love the textures and angle of the shot. Colors look great too; pretty vibrant. Overall, this looks quite nice for something made in just a weekend (especially taking in consideration that the entire background was made from complete scratch).

I just finished watching this series and I quite liked it; just like your wall. It’d have been pretty neat if you could’ve also done a version with the girls (from ending 2), but hey… still you did an awesome job turning such a low quality image (screenshot) into this.

Eagerly waiting for the already-announced second season (tv) to come…
