Touhou Arcanum Paradisus

Awesome !!!! I am really speechless ! I like the view very much! Good job on this Storm!

+FAV

Clouds are evil. EEEVIL.

I like the way you painted the background and making it blue, it really adds to the melancholy feeling. And good job on extending it. Good luck in the Immunity competition! :)

Wow!!!!! this is absolutley stunning!!!! (9+_+) Love the background scenary its really clear and 3d! love the clouds especially look very fluffy :D and the blue tone scheme gives it a calming effect Overall love it!!! |(VcV)|

+FAVE

The outlined Utsuho looks a little bit weird before the lineless scenery, but the background looks so incredibly good, that I just don't care about that. The painting is outstanding, and the whole mood is just so great that it's almost scary. It really is an awesome Utsuho wall.

Lulz how did I know someone like you would wall that scan? >D I definitely prefer the blue one! I can see how you had your priorities, because I agree that it could be a bit more polished. But you did a very nice job extending the scene and adding your own elements to it. 8D

I was lost there for a moment thinking "omg" this is absolutely stunning!!! and then i saw it was you two, figures lol xD

Εξαιρετική δουλειά όπως πάντα, έχετε αστείρευτο ταλέντο και είστε πραγματικά έμπνευση για τους υπόλοιπους ;)

+fav ofc

My only gripe with this wallapaper is the Utsuho's lineart. It's too crisp and you should have probably either removed it completely or softened it/erased part of to the point that it'd blend with the rest. It stands out too much because the whole composition looks like a paintwork and yet the lineart is still there.

If you could fix that a little I think it'd really make it a whole lot better.

Still an awesome job. Props.

Really really beautiful! Loving how the background blends so well with the character. +Fav +desktop

Nice reconstruction and extending the scan. The colors are good though i prefer the originals' or the sepia color look. Overall another beautiful wall so +fav!^^,

A very nice wall... but, the girl just seems to stand out too much. It almost seems like she was pasted in the picture. Probably due to the background being painted. Regardless, looks lovely~

Lovely painting. The blue tones are very nice. Good luck with the competition!

/(O_O)/ I was planning to wall this too, change plans now xD Really like it, and the bg truly fits her. Now I'm thinking whether I should still pass my Immunity wall xDD +Fav

AWWWW I GOT A GIFT! Late or not who cares <3 it! But I have to agree with shin the art is a bit crisp and you should have expanded her right wing beyond the pillar.

But its still awesome, an yea clouds are evil, grrr! An yes the blue is waaaay better. +fav

_ **Awesome !! ** _ <3

ZOMGWTFHBBBQROFLMFAO! ABSOLUTELY FANTABULOUS! <3

heh.. i thought you were dead.... (that's just me assuming stuff cause i haven't talked to you for ages.)

I see some super intense painting cloud skills... and super intense building painting skills... and super intense walling skills in general. Would've liked to see a tad more details on the leaves of the flowers in the bottom, but that doesn't really matter.

This is too intense. I'm gonna go apologize to the world for pretending I could somewhat wall.

The wall looks really nice overall and great job on the paintwork. The clouds looks stunning, I'm surprised its your first time painting them. Even though the character is vectored I think it still fits pretty well with the rest of the wall. The only things that bother me is that the houses on the left and the ruins on the right look a bit out of the perspective. My intuition tells me that the vanishing point is higher than where you have placed it so that you would see much more of the ruins and the buildings than clouds, but I didn't see anyone else point it out so it might be just me. Last thing that I wanted to mention is that the bright section of the pillar that is above her hand and the left wing are too solid of a color compared to the rest of the wall so it stands out a bit.

I like this wall a lot, pretty awesome painting! You did a great job on the background, wish I could paint like that >_>I only find the sharp vector outlines of the girl a bit unfitting on that "blurry" painted style background. The vector is good though too, I just would have prefered full-painting on this one I guess. Well anyways, great job!! and good luck in immunity challenge!

Beautiful Simply Beautiful ~

Woah, I am blown away by this wall. It's so beautiful I'm going to break my own rules and use it on my desktop even though it's from a show I haven't seen. If you ever find the time to go back and polish up the details it would definitely be worth it! <3

Pretty~~ *__*

I love how you painted in the background. ♥ My only gripe would be the right side of the wings. You should have extended it because it looks kinda odd just cut off like that as it is. Other than that it's beautiful though. Great job! :D

Exceptioanl wall! +

Adorable painting!! Such great work on the details and re-creating the scene!!! fav!!

wtfff epic awesome! the roses, the soft colours and i love the background! <3<3<3

Absolutely gorgeous <3 great work on the painting and extention from the original. +fav

Completely awesome, love the colors and great painting, I was going to do this scan, gladly I chose another one xD +

awesome.. XD +fav

OMG! this wall mde me speechless... it's so nice! I like the blue one better! ADDS THIS ONE!

I personally love the blue version more than the original colors (although that palette is pretty too). I think despite the lack of polish, the wall looks very nice :) The background's style of painting gives the whole thing an ethereal feel. Nice to see walls from you again~ Keep up the good work ^^

Well first off congratulations on the exellente work you did in the wallpaper (it looks great) I'll make a desktop background.

Thanks for the input, is very good. (9+_+)

This is such a beautiful re-creation of the scan, I love the blue hues you added in. I would've liked to see more of the original colors in there as well, but this is fine still. The clouds are gorgeous, very well shaped and I like how they're placed. Opens up the scenery more. My only complaint is the flowers look very dull, I think they could've been more rich in color. I know the scene is dark n all but it would've been a nice constrast to me for them to be more red and highlighted. Other than that, fabulous work <3

Exquisite work Anna! +fav and requested for featured

*This is Valeria by the way... Τύπος ( Γιάννης ) με γυναικείο screename δεν έλεγε άλλο lol :P

Ώστε η Μαρία το παράτησε το άθλημα ε; Πάλι καλά βλέπω ότι εσύ συνεχίζεις ακάθεκτη να μας δίνεις αριστουργήματα.

This is beautifully done. Amazing work, love the color scheme. Keep up the good work. Later, .:Lady:.

Great wallpaper - you surely put a lot of effort into making it. I like how it turned out - the towers really fit in well and the clouds are well-painted. The girl stands out a bit too much, because she seems to be a bit too crisp for the rest - but other than that it's really great and certainly worth a fullview and in many cases even a fav :P.

Thanks for sharing it with us. +fav dS.

It is beautiful but I suggest you to get rid some of the roses there. They are way too many. IMHO, by removing some of those you can gain more balanced feeling. No hard feelings.

very great wall there. although its similar to the scan but you detail additions is very nice. <3 <3 <3

Secret paradise huh? I like it.

oh my! this is so hot! and so emotionla!

I love her wing & the rose < 3

awesome work

+fav

another epic wall... dam the man you're good. +fave

beautiful wall ♥ and thank you for uploading both versions which look amazing.

Yeah, the perspective is a bit off, but it's not something I would have noticed if it weren't for everyone else pointing it out. And it doesn't bother me, to be honest. This wall is pretty good eye-candy. Colorizing it blue was a good choice in my opinion. It gives it a more mystical and magical look.

As a final note, you really did the clouds yourself? Wow!

Great, I lack the words to express it 8)E +fav

So perfect! 8)E

An amazingly painted background, absolutely beautiful, and a astonishing vector that matches perfectly. Totally impressive.

This paper should be featured!

Absolutely amazing. The colors fit so beautifully. I love it!

Wow. *_________* It's fabulous! The girls is really well vectored, and your paint is really really really amazing. I loved a lot the roses and the scenery, and think that the two versions are beautiful. Amazing entry! :D

faved now! ♥

o/ ~

Wow~ (9+_+) really loved your painting and details, Everything is well made! *set as a desktop* 8DDD +

I think I prefer the blue version o3o awesome work as usual \o/

This is a beautiful wall! Great job! +fav!!

The blue version of this wallpaper feels colder and edgier while the original was super warm and fuzzy. I like them both. The choice of background and foreground was done well. I really like the segmentation of the clouds on the upper corners of the pictures, adding contrast in terms of both colors and composition, although it may give a contrived feeling like the rose petals are not allowed to wander too high. After pointing out about the other wing, the wing feels out of place.

wow nice wall. love the background. the background was blended very well with the scans. and the vectoring is very well done. good job!

amazing wallpaper! keep it up looks awesome is great!

Oh gosh, you know how long I want to comment on this one? Was busy with my Sora no Otoshimono wall, and after I almost forgot. But now we have it. And oh gosh, for the girl, shez really hot, just as this wall is. But actually I like more the hot version, as the modified blue. The clouds are painted excellent and it really deserves a favie from me. +Fav

Awesome scenic wall! great details, I love everything about this wall (9+_+)

I don't think you need anyone to tell you that this is really good work but I'll say it anyway; it's really really good. I still can't make up my mind about which version of it I like better. (o_o) Oh well, they are both very good. +fave

You've done it again. The background is fantastic. Great work!

Very pretty wall, with a nice painting and great colors :D This japanese pagoda in bg looks cool too :3

WOAH! This is beautiful!

This wallpaper is awesome! First of all, the background is quite new for me cause most of Utsuho papers I have seen are burning or dust background. Besides, the painting is beautiful too.

The first thing that I noticed was that you made your character angry or upset as opposed to the original scan, haha. Anyway, bg on the right looks weird and yeah, I think more time spent on it would make it more better, but still wonderful nonetheless. :)

i just love the usage of light and shadow, also the inclusion of beautiful scattering sakura petals and the amazing city landscape♥ well-done

aw tahts a nice paper congrats! i really like it! :D

good job, love it :3

nice wallpaper x)

definitely like this. love how people actually take time to extend the scans. brilliant!

It's incredible...I really liked the colors you choose!

looks great, thanks +fav

So peaceful and yet so distant.. Beautiful moment captured here. Love the colors, and most of all i love the flower pattern, it really adds great feeling to whole wall. but if i look closely, some bulidings dont seem real, like there are some mistakes. but i want be looking too closely, so its great anyway :)

wow!! it's GOOOOOOOOOD!!

Sooo beautiful! I love the blue tones, and the pink petals really add a gorgeous accent. Definitely one of my favorites, and definitely staying as my wallpaper for a while! Keep up the great work!!

A fitting background to an already lonely feeling that the character displays.

Good job on the widen background! My fav!

Beautiful wallpaper, i like the colors you use on it and the brackground work is exelent, 1+ to my favorites...

I love how you changed the texture of the background. Very beautiful!

The background is awesome and the flowers were very fitting. Good job!

Truly epic! I love the way you painted everything and the complex vast scenery.

+fav

wow... just wow... fantastic wall.. although it feels like it needs a little more sharpness. other than that. great colors and superb background.

You make great wallpapers Storm and Fire Kuudos. xD Keep on creating such sm3xy walls

Great work the change of colors is great

The colour of peace is very wonderful i love it

+fav

Love it

Beautiful. The colours and vector effects made the picture looks "alive".

This wall is just great. (I like writing constructive comments.)

wow, this is very beautiful!

One of the greatest walls I have seen so far. Like how you added the ancient palace-like building into the background, which really brings the whole picture together.

Awesome job! +fav

:O:O:O

This wallpaper is amazing! The foreground's roses are really good! +FAV!

wow well done, this looks like its an actual painting

Oh how I love the water colour feel this wallpaper has. It's like it's slightly blurred and it really does look like it's been painted! Sometimes it's nice to have a raw artsy feel as opposed to really clean vectored lines. I like it a lot =] Good work!

Wow! This is a breathtaking wallpaper! Simply breathtaking! XD

It is pretty!

This is amazing! I like how the girl at first glance pops out! Great use of shadows and highlights.

really is beautiful

Masterpiece, this is a masterpiece! The vector detail and painting are awesome!

Woow!! Touhou wallpapers are gorgeous and this one caught my attention. ^-^ The background w/ the roses and everything are nice. +FAV!

wow really pretty (Y)

Conservative scenario decaying structure is good stage has highlights that stand out to our beautiful model is really cool I'll take your picture for my pc thanks

Excellent <3 Everything fits in this wall! +Fav.

wow... its beautiful dude, i like it... +fav

I love how you filled in the background and expanded the pictures effectivly

Blue background and cherry blossoms bring out the character very well. Background is scenic, and the girl is pretty. Great wall.

:O

This is awesome! Very nice choice of colors!

Good job extending and reconstructing, its totally awesome. But the sepia one looks better ;D

+FAV

I really love the background.

WoW!!!!!!! looks AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Great work with the towers in the back and the whole background!!!!!!!!!! the vector looks awesome too!!!!!!!! not to mention the sakura petals!!!!!!!!!! FABULOUS WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seeing this full-screen left me breathless. She looks so radiant and mighty, like a messenger sent from the heavens. I do love how you brought her out to draw all eyes on her, the center of your piece. The background and foregrounds are very beautiful as well. I wouldn't change this in any way.

It is absolutely awesome:)

Wow, lovely work you did on this wallpaper. I love the background you painted, it fits so well, and it looks just like the scan (only more fitting to the girl).

Awesome!! The subject is beautiful and the way she is standing on the edge is great, it brings out deeper themes. The choice of blue color is great much better than darker black/brown shades here. I must add that the way more realistic objects merge with painted flowing structures is brilliant... +fav

good

wow so cute and lovely! u have done a perfect vectoring and I love the colors. nice. I reall y like it nice job. This is definitely a favorite.

simply beautiful! i don't have anything else to say...

Amazing!!

Great Job!! Congratz! +fav

This is very beautiful. Great job on this.

I'm left speechless by the lightning and the scenery.

Wonderful work, tough the part on the right side of the picture kinda looks slightly different from the rest of it for me... but you've done a really good job on the painting ;D Furthermore I really like the blue colour which you added.

This totally amazed me at first glance. The scenery and the colour are very great. Very beautiful

This is so great. Her and the almost-scenery-porn. The place is great albeit it's in ruins, I presume. Now I wonder what would mean of her beauty amidst all the ruins behind her.

lonely in life but strong in power feel the true power of girls

Gorgeous, that is all!

Hazy Chinese wind effect, very beautiful, and I like cold tonal

loved it

lovely work!!

GFreat wallpaper! Really nice atmosphere, great job vectoring the girl and integrating her seamlessly into the background. Nice work.

those flowers made it amazing!!

great piece of work just awesome pretty nice background

Amazing job! The blue style very good but the original version preferable. I like you wallpaper. thx the work!

Great work!

looks very awesome :3 nice job

amazing work +FAV

Love the character design. Her facial expression shows no emotion in the stone age-like background that is beautifully painted. Simply a piece of art. Favourite.

Great wallpaper, the background and the character blends in an amazing way, and the scene reconstruction is amazing, thank you for sharing it

Fantastic background! =) FAV! definitly The girl is really beautiful!!

Wonderful! It is a very good arrangement. Finish is beautiful! Its nice job ;) +Fav
