I FINALLY walled this scan! OMG I've had this in my hard drive...for maybe the past three...four years? Never knew what to do with the thing until I saw the theme for the this contest:
Made for Round 1 of MT Knockout 2010: Welcome to My World!"The theme is free for interpretation. It can be a reflection of your own world, or the world of the scan you’ve chosen."
You can find the link to the contest post here, and the link to the judges' results post here.
It was due around March 25th (date was a bit vague with all the time differences). And being me, I waited until the night before to start .___.; And the next day I'd promised to hike with some friends of mine...TIME CRUNCH, MAN.
But~~ I made it to the next round! X] Kudos to queerisblue and her awesome entry - master wall of chaos, seriously!
EDIT 04-09-10 11:51am PST Ok, so I got off my lazyass and fixed the record >D

Waiting to comment this wallpaper on AP, since you told about it in Tweeter, and I'm waiting to tell how much I loved it ^^
The girl is looking very nice with the gradients and colors you used, I love how you vexeled the Nano-headphone-thing, colors are perfectly matching, and the background is also cool, I just have only one thing to blame you for, the disc center (just beneath the title) is a little jagged (you can fix it, it's no serious problem right ?)
Thanks for this nice wallpaper ^^

Details are amazing! I like the idea, it's fantastic! Colors are nice and everything is well composed. But tell me, what is with all these walls being titled "Welcome to my world?" I must be missing something... the only holiday I know about was "bare feet day" yesterday, lol. Fav+

I love the vectoring in this, the shapes are applied very smart, and although the wall consists of many different styles and techniques everythign fits awesomely well. I also love the wings of the speakers (hilarious idea on that note XD), they look really cool! Great concept and Murata Range is always win, love his style! +Fav for sure

This is just awesome! I always thought that picture was really cool and the series itself is fun to watch. I think this is a very creative take with it as well as very original. You did a great job with the colors, placement and the way you changed the girl. Beautiful work!

Overall it's good, good composition and great coloring. The music theme is somewhat used a bit to much, what I ment to say is thet it's not origninal work. This aside there are some work that has yet not been polished to perfection. First of all, there is a sharp line between the "record" and the white background right where her neck is. Secondly the record has some kind of white clouds around it, the top left, and some sharp corners at bottom right.
This is just my thoughts and you did oerall a good job, hope to see more of your work cuz you got talent in composing and that is something most lacks.
Peace out.

mmmm... sexy color scheme. especially the purple-ish colors on the helmet.
great job with the overall composition and the blending of elements.
only one thing kinda bugs me about this, it's that her face looks rather flat compared to the rest of the wall. though i must say, you did an excellent job with the gradients on the face.
you get a fave though

Your concept + the given theme really matched together. I like how you interpret your concept to the theme and this one is fit totally well. Nice scan used + the vector is great with smooth outlines & shadings of the colors. The background is nice as well with wings + the feathers everywhere though i found something kinda off on the part behind the character on the right side, it was a small rectangular shape with wings i dunno what is that or you just put that in some random way but overall i like your concept so +fav! ^^,
oh yeah and congratz! and keep it up on the next round! :D

I really like your vector, she looks so glossy and polished especially with your delicate use of outlines so that she's really affected by the surrounding light. Great idea with a great execution :3

Somehow the feathers look a bit odd and fluffy compared to the crispness of the rest of the wall, but I really like the idea and the colors are awesome, too. The record looks nice, indeed and the headphones are so shiny and pretty. Nice job! :)

OTL if it weren't you submitting this i'd not have believed it was done right before the deadline. I find the white wing w/ speakers at the top right corner distracting, but i guess it can't be helped since the back drop is basicly black there >.<

There can never be enough Last Exile wallpapers, of this I'm certain.
I honestly cannot see a more fitting opponent to have for a first round than queerisblue and I have to say that despite the extremely creative high quality results you both produced, I have to give the nod to this wallpaper.
I love finding a great scan and letting it sit on your computer until you can find that perfect idea for it. In turn, it almost always results in something that is unique and brilliant in it's own right. I can definitely say that I'm really glad that you waited to use this scan until now, because it is absolutely perfect for this background in every sense of the word. I especially love what you did with Alvis's hair and her helmet too. Of everything you touched up with her, these were by far the most dynamic features and really make her shine.
I am extremely curious as to where you got the concept idea for the giant record in the background, as well as those floating..well, they look like speakers to me, but I'm still waking up so yeah! I'd love to hear the story behind that because they are just beautiful! Quite possibly one of the most unique and creative ideas I've seen inserted into a wallpaper in years. What really blows me away is the exquisite detail to the wings. I don't think I've seen a better looking pair of wings in a wallpaper, ever. What's nice is there is enough of them to where it doesn't feel empty, but it also doesn't feel congested either. I touched on it shortly, but I really love the detail to the record itself. I'm also glad you went with the route you did, because I feel if it was modeled completely after a real record, it wouldn't of fit nearly as well with this wallpaper as this one does.
It's hard to say what I really love most about this wallpaper. The fact that the way the background is done, it makes me feel as if I'm floating just above the clouds, or how there is such fine detail and craft paid to every inch of this wallpaper or just simply how everything seamlessly comes together to form a masterpiece. Yes, that's right. I'll be so bold as to call this a masterpiece, because I feel calling it anything less would almost be insulting.
