Yo people, here is a new wallpaper, a bloody one!
I really liked this scan and couldn't resist to wall it, I haven't played the game but I really like its art! (I'm not sure about the artist but it reminds me Miwa Shirow, like this one).
At first I wanted to vector it, but being afraid that this will maybe make it loose it's 3D effect (and also because moutonzare said it's not that easy to vector) I dropped and I finished by rendering it and adding more shadows and details (you can see it in the progression). I don't know why I chose the western theme to wall it, but I really like the result, starting from some stock images to create the desert background, then I painted the sky and added textures and blood, here is the progression:

It wasn't that hard work, but I enjoyed the walling and also the result! It's another HD ratio, so please download the 16:9 to see the original wallpaper, 16:10 are cropped versions. I hope you'll like it ^^ Feedback is always welcomed!
GA said he like the Sepia version of the Progression, if you like it too, here is it!:

o____o bloody! I like how you used textures and the color scheme of the wall. Mmm...you said you wanted to keep it's 3D effect, but her hair seems a bit odd to me (IMO) But nevertheless I like it! :D

I like the western theme with that image.
My opinion:
The mountains could be more perceptible. The "blood" brush applied in the lettering is good tough you could have add some flow in the other ones to match the flow of her robe or even a passed bloody swing effect of the sword ( I can see part of that motion).
I can see a generalist light coming from the left to the right. If u add a focus light point behind the mountains would have been awesome.
From the standing of the image and her eye if u add some dead bodies or some standing shadows dropping blood ( u can change that dark right area of the mountains to fit that purpose) it would have be extreme cause she is watching "behind" implying a passed action. (Bloody in your case). I don't see a affinity between the eye and the lettering thats why all my explanation.
Or to avoid all that "trouble" u could try to change the direction of her eye. To look direct at us.
Im at work i cant spend much time examining the image but its a good paper.
Gratz Ala. ;)

Today is going to be a good day. I've seen two desirable walls already and it's still morning. I can't wait to see what the evening will offer. A nice job with this one. \o/

Very nice wall! I love what you did with the scan; make it a slight angle, with a gritty background (love the layers and textures) and a kickass typography. The overall look is just awesome. But hey, that final shot in your progress GIF is showing a more desaturated, almost sepia-like look, which I actually like even more (judging by the small scale). Any chance of uploading that as a revision? Will fave it if you do :P

Ah so the bg is some rocky western landscape. Wish it wasn't so blurry. D: When you showed me your wip I thought it was flames and the black part a blurry person. @.@ So make the clouds and rocks clearer!

Hoohu~ another great wall! Yup, I like your effect & BG a lot! It really giving me a cowboy feel (especially those Ink Mark around), look so nice. And your typo are also creative.

The character catches my interest in particular. I absolutely love how you've optimized the image and the concept that you've conjured up for it. I think it suits her quite well. Major points for the layout/textures. Keep up the awesome work!

The sky looked great, but your background was too blurred for me to recognize anything. Also, the blood that you've added didn't looked like blood to me but more like part of the background for the words. Still, you did a good job doing this and I appreciate it. Its just that I have a bit different taste. Thank you for the wall!

OMG
I didn't expect this wall, you surprised me, and i like the choice of the scan too.
the background match with the mood & the character, i really like the bloody & gore wall's,
especially with katana and blood all over the wall "muhahaha" .
Great job +fav +on my desktop

now, this is the best thing you have done, but when looking from close up, you cant even figure out what the background is, maybe you just have blurred it too much. other than that, interesting wall.

At First Sight I thought this was from Afro Samurai... Then I remembered there was no such character... What a cool person you chose.
PS I agree I'm not to fond of guns. I'd rather rip the arms off my opponent by hand. +Fav

The first thing i wanna say is: I like how you make use of the texture. XD
I like the whole concept of this wall, as well as the placement of splashing blood.
A great work and adding the walling process in your description really tells everything bout your work. :)
Hope to see your latest work soon. :3

Wow, grunge style uh? ^^ The girl is really stylish, remember me of Blood: The last vampire, haha. I liked of the blurred bg, and just loved the warm colors used. The blood brushes combines perfectly with the font used for the text, good placement of it. Good job, +fav! :D

Oh this is pretty intense, I don't know what other critics might others have but over all I like it. Good texture and choice of colors as well as background and character...the only thing a bit off is her hair, looking somehow like paper.
