Bleach The Calm Before The Storm

Hi, I love your wallie. The background is lovely...certainly a darker feel.

Btw, the wordings are covered when I tried to make it my desktop pic :(

The color is quite charming,dark but not boring,I like the sky with beautiful clouds,and the moutains and trees in the distance ,the scan is good too,in the whole thw wall is awesome,it deserves a fav,keep it up!

Very pretty. The background is awesome. I love the dark feel to it.

Theres still the artifacting on the clothes of the scan and a few in the clouds, but overall nicely done. I think you could have worked on the lighting more, since their only source of light is the sun, yet they're still so bright... The text is also kinda bland. You kept their discriptions but killed the hollows >_< Eh I hope you encorperate them into another Bleach wall one day, since we have a lot of scenery walls, but little Hollow/Shinigami walls ^^;

I really like the background to your wallpaper ^O^ Looks so good!!! It just looks so coool!! >< And especially against the scans you chose!! *o* I can't see no lightning =P But the lighting effects are really well done! ^^ You achieved the effect you wanted!! ^^

My favourite part of the wallpaper must be the birds you put in the background ^____________^

amazing¡, the background looks great, and i like, althoug i dont know of what anime is the and the draw :O, but well done

KOOL . GREAT JOB! real love this one. the dark feeling u add to it. its soo kool

This wallpaper is awesome the scans are great and I like the lighting effects I'm +fav this wallie keep up the good work :)

Nice, Dark tone works well with the scans. Nice work.

I belief i commented this on a diffrent site /still - since this Animepaper is my no.1 im happy that a great wall like this one has found its way here .Good job!

Very cool wall! I like it :D

hey...i love the seriousness of the wallpaper. very grim and bleak feel, nice work =)

since the bkg is so good and looks so real, it doesn't go well together w/the scanned image...! heh, the bkg looks awesome though, and so does the cleaned up image.

wow this looks so wonderful the bg work is perfect and i love the dark fighters u have a great taste in makeing walls congratulation to this awesome work

very nicely done. you did a great job with the scans, they're so clean, alittle bright but that's ok. i really like the colors, this wp is dark but not too dark and the small details in the bg really give this wp a nice splash so that it isn't boring but doesn't take away from the boys.

This is pretty impressive! I recall you were looking for background ideas in session zero, seems like you've managed to find something good! I like the dark atmosphere created by the colors, the cloud patterns, and the bare trees and circling birds. Nice work on that.

Just want to point out a little inconsistency - Hitsugaya has a different lighting from the other two - judging from the shadows, he is lit from the left, whereas Byakuya and Kenpachi are lit from the right. Very minor issue, hardly noticeable.

Besides that little bit, this wall rocks. Good job!

it bit kind of weak but nice done

Just loved you wallpaper !!! So nice!!! The background is really nice!!! The sky tones and colors are just awesome!!!! The scans that you used are wonderful too!!!! I will add your wallpaper to my favorites!!

wow..awesome wallie....awesome background..........

great wall, great scans jus awesome! fav added

Yes! These are the three favorite captains of mine...the clouds and the simplicity make is so smooth thanx for this one

I love the background. It's so dark and moody...so absolutely perfect.

Very nice wallpaper, which now is going on my desktop...... I liked the background, but the lighting on the characters is a little bright.

First dark Bleach wallpaper I've liked. Awesome work here dude.

I like the wallpaper, but the characters are a little too sharp in comparison to the rest of the background (the tree in particular)

The black clouds add an interesting dark, imminent storm, sort of touch to the wallpaper. It's an interesting concept. I think a few white clouds might balance the piece a little, though, especially since Hitsugaya, Zaraki and Byakuya are both so bright and white. A bit of subtle texturing/brushing over the characters as well as the wall might help adjust the colors so they fit together better. Maybe some color-balancing will help as well.

On the overall, this is an interesting sort of concept, very fitting to some of the recent events in the series! I like it. :) Good job!

Awesome paper!! The background and characters go well together, keep up the good work^^

excellent wall beautiful wall and great character choice ^^

nice pic i think bleach is so cool and this to me is a good pic if you ever want the first season of bleach get my e-mail i can give it to you becase you erned it and it's just on my computer you look like the person how would like it

Great job! The background and overall design go well with the scan and title.

Very nice wallpaper, the background is very well done, I really like the Clouds and the kind of dark sky. [ And it includes 3 of my favourite captains!] , Def a fave <3

waiiiiiiiii three major hunks! lol. *ahem* point is love the wall..wish renji was in there .. n ..oh yea off topic. what i meant was i truly love the way u did the skies. amazing. does well to focus on the three hunks. =P

wow i love this wallie it's really cool XD XD really nice!! earned a fav!

i totally like the dark background it is just toooo awesome

Great! The captains are so cool together with the background! Great job!

Awesomw work man. Love the dark tones. Great job.

Oh wow nice wallpaper ^^ I love the background *__*

sweet nice wallpaper you got there.. the dark setting of the background goes well with the serious looks on their faces

Kenpachi is beautiful ! :D

Thanks. ^^

My favorite captains all! :) The background is okay, although the text could be elaborated on to bring it out more, IMO.

The wall isn´t bad perhaps a little less bright the Characters, the background kinda simple but looks good.

One of my Bleach fav.

oh that is awesome. I'm glad to see any wall with Kenpachi on it. You did a great job, keep up the good work.

great wall very nice job. they all look so cool! love the background and the image extraction is very good as well. keep up the good job ;)

Oh wow! I am loving this wallpaper. I really like the three people you picked, even though Ken-Chan is my favorite! lol He is so hot. I'm loving what you did with the background though and the title really fits. I checked it out because of the title alone. Great job though. Really lovely background, keep it up & I'll look forward to seeing your work in the future =)

Very nice, certainly has the dark mood you were trying for. Though on closer inspection the scans are a little rough around the images and tend to stand out too much in the wallpaper. But this certainly does not detract from the wallpaper as a whole. Great Stuff

nice wallie, the background is looking amazing, the effects is amazing and the colour really fits with the background and the effects, it really give you a before storm atmosphere, the scan also look very great, it's very clean and smooth, it also blends really well with the background. Great job and thank you for sharing

Absolutely cool! Thank for this one.

This wallpaper is awesome *_* I love all those characters and the BG used seems to fit perfectly for the pictures atmosphere. Bravo!

Hardcore. this wall is awsome.

Oh, the background is absolutely like it's cooking up a storm, fits your quote perfectly!! Lovely wall!!

that nice!

veryyyy clear. Loving it. I think you could touch up a bit more on the scans however.

Oh yeah. This is a complete bullseye!

The thing i was serching for, definetly. Adding to fav.

I love the background effect and the overall mood of the wallpaper =D

nice. these are probally the only captains i like so far. great wall

Great one. =]

awesome =)

i think you did an awesome job on the background. i like the idea of the characters standing out against the background, but at the same time i wonder what the result would be if they blended in a bit more...right now the background looks more 'realistic' while the characters look very clearly defined, so it gives a bit of a separation between the two, kind of like something painted and something pencil-drawn. i feel like the words on the bottom stand out a bit too much (maybe theyre too large?) but that's just personal preference. Overall good job, i think the feeling the wallpaper gives really matches the title ^^

i usually dont like wallpapers with dark contrast but this is good, defintely.

Three persons' expression says very much.

kenpachi rocks , everything seems in place except the tree , but thats me :/

I like the wallie a lot, just I don't think Byakuya or Hitsugaya fit to the background really. I guess their Bankai's could be considered storms but really the only dark person there is Kenpachi. Otherwise an awesome wallie.

A ver fitting title for a wallpaper of this good quality...the choice of textures and idea for the background is magnificent for the image of these three characters...the dark colors and the way they look just compliment each other very well.

Whatever anime Pana Senpai is working on... you do it good. I was fixated by the Tsubaasa Reservoir Chronicle Bitter Sweet Memories, and now I am mesmerized by the grand feeling of Byakuya and his fellow Shinigami.

I really love the way you play with the Sepia. It greatly shows off the ambiance and strengthen the characteristic of the four heroes.

Great stuff

wow i think the bg match well with the guys, good wall!

wooow i really like it.. alot the BG looks amazing... with dark colors+ The effects in the clouds are great and lighting effects too is a great work... keep it up ^^

nice wall, a wall of captains.....but it will be better if there was a different background!!!!!

Noone but the best captains around ;P or at the very least the most interesting ;)

so cool!!1love it !!!must make more

great layout of ur character scans. 3 of my favs as well! great creative background ~ the colours go absolutely perfectly with the captains. good work!

Like the dark feeling to but it also has 2 of my favorite bleach characters. The contrast is also very good. Keep up the good work!

I like the colurs, but something's wrong with this picture... I don't mean it's bad or something, but i don't really love it at all...

Hello! I love your wall!! I love that picture! It is exelent!! ^.^ The beckgrund is beautiful! Contratulations!!

And arigato for the wall! ^.^

My three favorite captains on the same wallpaper, very nice!

good work with the bleach 's calendar , goog lighting effect.

Nice! Three Badass captains heh.

Good Job

I like the background.

wow, i really like this one! good job

this paper is excellent overall...great use of color effects on both the character and background and the level of detail is superb...also, the concept and elements mix well in this image

I would like to download this wallpaper, but the site has some restriction (I wish I knew ahead of time) and only lets you look at a few before locking things up.

this is a great wallpaper. looks awsome, so awsome, that its my current wallpaper :p keep it up ^^

the three coolest captains in soul society all together in one wallpaper? AWESOME!! i love the dark feeling you get from this wall... it really IS the calm before the storm, plus the serious looks the captains have on their faces is another great addition! props to your wall!! you did a great job!!!

The background of this wall catched my eye. This is incedible. Love the colors and the characters blend in nicely. But the background is, again, incredible. Good job on this one. A fav (even if I don't know the anime) because I simply love it.

super dramatic the background is great

I really love your walli!! The mood fits perfect to the three...

Hardly believe this is made by the mangaka himself ^.~ very cool and stylish!

i cant resist any bleach wallpapers really especially with the quality of this one, the background just sets the mood with the captains i love it!

wow, very nice!!! these 3 are my top fav character in the whole team. thanks for making this great wall!

I love this wallpaper... The background is awesome, the scan that u used is also really great!

+FAV ^__^

I like the dark colors and effects you used for this wall, a very amazing wallpaper. Great job.

nice wallie :D

The wallpaper is very nice indeed. two thumbs up!

wow!!! the BG is juz awsame !!! i like it very very

Byakuya, Zaraki, Toshiro.

Beautiful sight!!!!!!!!!! I dont' know this category, but it seems that they are 3 talented killers (If I predict wrong, don't blame me >.<) I love the scenery behind them, like a deathy forest with smoke and birds flying to move to other safe places. Very nice!!! But I think their clothes colors are not nice, I 'd like it to be more colorful ^^

thank you l like Bleach!!!!

Very nicely done. you did a great job with the scans, they're so clean, alittle bright but that's ok. i really like the colors, this wallpaper is dark but not too dark and the small details in the bg really give this wallpaper a nice splash.

This is a great wall. I really like the background. It matches well with the characters in the foreground. Nice job.

love your wall here ^_^! the dark feel is really cool and i love the pictures that you used of Hitsugaya, Kenpachi and Byakuya ^o^! the design and everything else is VERY well put together ~_^. great job ^o^!

3 of my favorite captains from Bleach + A very nice background = An awesome wallpaper. Nice job.

Very Nice! ^_^

the best trio

I have seen this image done several different ways but I like the way you have done it here. The color scheme, the mood, everything is great! Good Job!

i got one thing to say. NICE!!!

CO_oL!!! Byakuya & Toshirou are my fav characters

I love the background. Actually found that it fits in with the captain's postures and uniforms.

esta genial me encanta el diseño de este wallpaper

nice BG

3 of the best captains! nice wallpaper!

es muy bueno las tres personas que considero mas peligrosas en la serie ademas el fondo opaco y todo destroido a su alrededor.

I have always love the way Pana senpai tries to portray things. The original picture might be just ordinary, but your choice and style is extraordinary.

I truly love this artwork, specially the color. I do not personally like rough texture, but hey, this is shonen no? Of course they have to be harsh and rough!

Great submission Pana senpai ^_^

Very nice! They could have blended into the background a bit more, but then again I also like how they stand out clearly... the background definitely captures and accentuates their moods very well!

Perfect background. Certainly gives that dark feeling that comes from Byakuya and Zaraki. Hitsugaya seems a bit misfit ;p But its a definite fav + !

Good wall , I like it a lot.

very nice work, i like the positioning and the cleanliness of it all =) the background effect is very fitting of the expressions, good choice of scans

Cool to the core!!!!!~ [The Calm Before The Storm] sounds alarming and it fits with the background.

nice nice good team of chars and the setting make it look even cooler

very lik dis anime n wallpaper oso

love the colors

the 3 best captains

I don't think the task you set before yourself quite worked: at least Kenpachi and Byakuya are hard-lit from the front right while the visible source of light is the sun at the back top left, and the background looks a bit alien in relationship to the characters, especially around Byakuya, as for me.

Having said that, I think the overall composition is superb and the colours look very good.

All in all, it's not perfect but lovely and interesting enough that I feel compelled to add it to my favourites. Please keep going! Talent and good ideas are not to be wasted, and I'm sure you'll learn the finer point of shadowing fast :)

hitsugaya so cool i love you8)E but so why he smaller in that wallpaper(>_<)9

Fantastic wall. Zaraki is awesome.

cool one~3q!!

epic. all 3 of them are

I really love it *----*

awesome work

Nice work with the clouds! Maybe do a little more blending on the lighter foreground characters? Just a minor detail, but good work!! (XD)

i like it

they look soooo cool :D!!

Wow, very nice work!

As a huge bleach fan, especially for those 3 characters, I really like this wallpaper very much XD

great!!! i like the combination between kenpachi and bg... evil thoughts and the darkness... wkwkwk...

Awesome title and the background. I like the scans.

Great wallpaper. Thanks! :D

cool
