One old wallpaper that I started 1 month ago, but never finished until yesterday, this is one of my best and amusing walling experience, because I tried to use every possible rendering and cutting techniques to assemble it, oh yes! It's a 100% Blending wallpaper, there is no vectors, no paintings, only renders, bushes, filters and effects! I really enjoy it, so I hope you'll enjoy it too. ^^

Hmmm, let me see, let's start by telling the walling process, this time I will not tell "go and check the progression chart" because the walling procedure details is here but the previews are in the progression, so let's start :

1- Picked up the scan, cut it then resized it to fit my wallpaper space. 2 & 3 - Searching for a suitable background elements, I was thinking about water reflection or dark forest... or ruins 4- I cut the ruins from the second background element and kept (temporarily) the first one. (Of course like you, I already applied some filters and gradients for the color domination) 5- I removed the third and destroyed the second pillar to give it an oldy look! 6- Finally, found the perfect forest background, I filtered it, made some places darker than other and added some lights here and there. 7 & 8- Now come the rock where the girl is seated, applied more dark effects and lights on the background and the rock. 9- Added the four crows, two on the tree and two on the rock. 10- See these candles, I added them and applied the flame, lights and environment lights too, I really loved this step! XD 11 & 12- Now come the moment to make it dark, scary and horrible with a night theme, some star dust and a frightening text, Bwahahaha! 13- If you read this procedure, you'll know that it is really unusable, I just enjoy keeping you reading stupid things :p

Here is the scan I used :

Magician with scythe

Well, the recommended Aspect Ratio is always the 16:10, the other versions are cropped versions from it, oh I remember, this wallpaper exists in two versions, here is the text-version :

4:3 version

16:9 version

16:10 version

That's all, enjoy it ^^ PS: La faucheuse means The reaper in French (Thank you Alenas!) ^^" Special thanks to my friend Mouton for his continuous support and help, he spend more time giving tips for me than working! XD Comments and FAVs are highly appreciated ^^

I like the stocks you used and how you blended them together, they match pretty damn good. Also the scan is nice, one of the few anime style scans that look good infront of stock-based bg. I like to see some nice wall in the old-school blending way again, and this one is by far your best wall that's doesn't focus on a vector and thus you will get a fav this time =) Keep it up mate.

La faucheuse means The reaper in english? Lol, you mean French? XD

Somehow those columns look a bit odd amidst the forest, makes everything look a bit too crowded and too textured compared to the rest of the smooth BG but I like the blending and the colors you used. It's nice to see an old school wall from time to time. :)

Nice job! :)

Like Cloud said, it's nice to see an old-school blended wallpaper again. Even though the perspective and depth are a bit off on some parts, the overall look of the wall is very nice. So good job!

The background looks very good, nicely colored nightly scene, fitting for the girl holding the scythe. Her pretty and sexy look is also making this picture good. Nice wallpaper.

I like the coloring and the rather - I hope you'll excuse me - simple way of "just" blending scans so well together that you really end up thinking it was one scan after all.

The background matches the foreground very well - and the darker atmosphere that you've created by stressing the colors (looks like "color burn" or "color dodge" to me) really fits into the main theme of this wallpaper. It's interesting to see a cutey actually taking your life while being your very own and personal reaper. That's why this modified background (color-wise) is better than the original one. Also it almost looks like where a reaper would either live or "train" or just relax maybe?

Really nice to see people making wallpapers the old way - without re-cging everything and revectoring even more ^^;. This time you concentrated on the wallpaper itself more than on just the foreground and thus a +fav from me.

+fav dS.

WOW.

I really don't believe in how you made this wall. I see the progress, and you do all perfectly! Very nice choose of the images that compose the background, and really nice characther. The colors are perfect, doing a atmosphere that I liked so much. Really nice job, dear Al! So, faved! ^^

It's very well done, I'm just missing some kind of light source to match with the foreground (contrast of the character gives the sign of that there should be more, so do the pillars). +fave ♥

Yup! this is one of your best and amazing walls you made. Great use of old school style of walling. The background really fits the character and its colors really blends well. The lighting effects you made is great, nicely done with the background + on your character. I like those small glowy effects though it would be nice if you make it a little brighter. Overall awesome job in choosing background for this character! so +fav!^^,

Nice job.

Everything blends in together. It was interesting seeing the progress step by step and an explanation along with it. I like the new color overlaying it. It makes it feel like night.

The only conflict I have with the wallpaper are the columns and rock. The rocks and trees work together because they're smooth in texture. The columns seem more rigid texture-wise. Just a minor detail I wanted to point out. D:

I must say the girl was very nice! <3

But I do find the pilars and the rocks dont quite fit well with the BG especially the forest ( maybe that's the effect of extraction). and I think the pilars are short, shouldnt that be longer? or maybe that's just me...

I really like the blending you used in this wall, although I have to side with @alenas in saying that it looks a bit odd and crowded. But one gets used to it and I like the colors pretty much! +Fav

Help the lights went out! It's noon why is it dark and why the hell is the moon out? Halloween isn't for another 5 1/2 months. Oh the torture the pain I haven't even picked out my costume yet..Ahh there is a crazy girls with a scythe chasing me..HELP!!!

All silliness aside. This is a grate wall. You have a great setting which enhances the mood dramatically. It's like shes waiting for you to say go kill that person and then she would do it without a second thought. I like it not to mention the image quality is superb. This totally gets my vote. +FAV XOXOXO

I'm so sorry for being late replying :( I've been swamped in college work, and I'm sick too T_T. But on a brighter note, WOW this is amazing. A great job with this blend. YOu've blow me off my chair. It shows that the old school way isn't dead yet ^^. It really looks like a whole, almost as if it's always been this way. The atmosphere is really befitting and I love the little touches of stardust here and there
