I really like this Range Murata piece, but wasn't able to find a wallpaper of it that I really liked. This one is an attempt to extend the image a bit using a picture I took of a street in Himeji. I tried to make the lower portion of the base art look like it was still in progress. I like the watercolor effect as the colors lighten, but everyone may not. First wallpaper.

Wow, for a first Wall. this is awesome. What captured me as i scroll down the page was the realism ofthe two characters. I defiently liked the watercolor idea and I'm speechless. This is preety awesome for a first Wall. The lines going up and across the shoes are accpetional and well thoguh out. It looks like another person should be in thw wall. though but still I love it. I hope my First Wall will be this good. +Fav! I'd love to see more of your works in the future. ^____^

I really like what you did to the photograph, it makes it look very much like a unfinished sketch...a nice concept. I like it very much :D You say this is your first wallpaper? I say...you DID very WELL :D Probably better than I could ever do my first time....keep up the GOOD WORK!

I really like the juxtaposition of the colored images and the black and white background. Its a nice cool way of focusing mainly on the cool art of Range Murata. Really great job for your first wall!

Awesome walpaper. I like how you fade the foreground characters into the background

Wow, I love it, seriously. Awesome scan continuation, I haven't seen it before, so I don't know how much you've done. It doesn't really matter though, whatever you did, you did an excellent job. The idea is awesome, too...I've always admired simple walls.
Although you're probably new to AP, I can see glimpse of a great waller (or already one, but I can't tell with 1 wall haha). xD +fav and f/l

Schweeet... a brilliant concept, I love the way the colored art fades to outlines at the bottom, and the way you play the colored portion off the black and white background. I like the way this leads my eyes - first to the colored characters, and then following their line of vision down the street, and then being drawn back again by the color. Superb stuff! *faves*

The effect is not usually seen, which is great.

Whoa this wall looks so awesome, very very stylish! Love the mix of outlines and solid colours - look fantastic! Would be interested to know how you managed to get the outlines looking like that. Sorta thought about doing exactly this for one of my walls but turned out completely differently. Did you vector the scans as well? Like it a lot, great job for a first timer!!
Congrats!! ^.^ +fav

i was just wondering, wht anime is this?
7 years, 3 months ago
Whoa. I love the concept and the result is intriguing and stylish. If only my first wallpaper was like this!

The coloured scan and the black & white city scene match and the watercolour effect you mentioned looks good. What I don't like are the little block-thingies arround the scans feet. Overall a good wallpaper.

Wonderful job in creating a sketched look for the background... very nicely done :) I wish the background was extended just a bit more so that the scan fits more into the background instead of hovering on the edges like it is now, and I'm not quite sure about the grids over their feet. Still, a very neat piece of work :D I like the clean, stylish look of this wall... great job on your first wall :D

awesome wp! that's the kind of thing i like to see! a black/white bg with splashes of color. i might've even gone so far as to make the motorbike just an outline as well. really nice effects. nice work! can't wait to see what you do next! :)

Excellent, I like the style

I really like the juxtaposition of the figures to the outlined background, and the grid lines with their feet disappearing near the bottom are cool too. Great, clean image.

First wall! Nice i like the background with the unfinished sketch style. Except the scan looks a bit out of place to me. But it's still nice how you came up with the idea.
7 years, 3 months ago
Hmmm. I like this one a lot. The black and white background gives the character a whole new look, although I really don't like those transparent boxes at the bottom of their feet. But, yes. A job well done for a first wallpaper. (+ Fav)

Wow! I love the concept of this wall! You fit the Murata artwork in perfectly with your picture. Excellent job, I can't wait to see what you do in the future!

I love the contrast between the background and the two characters. it highlight's murata's style well. This paper has a wonderful summer feel to me.

I like the concept of backgroud drawing. But I will have preferred an original drawing. However, it's a nice wallpaper. :)

Mmm, loving the watercolour effect plus the way the characters seem to be slowly dissolving into the background. Great work!
6 years, 8 months ago
I have to say I love the background. I like the contrast too between the colorful foreground and the simple black and white background. Really nice. The light empty white space balances nicely with the richer more weighty color foreground and its cool how you set it off to one side. I really like the wall. Nice design.
6 years, 6 months ago
Awsome! I have never seen anyone do that with a picture. It looks really cool. Maybe If part of the background was color (like the right side,) it would seem more like a unfinished image. But none-the-less it looks great.
6 years, 6 months ago
Simply put is awesome!

... is all I have to say, and you call this your first. WOW. I hope to be posting here soon too and can only hope that my first one get this same type of feedback. I really like the unfinished look of it and how the color actually fades off of the shoes. Again this is a cool image and will be set as my wallpaper for at least a week lol.

You real born designer,tivruski,i'm serious...

WOW! This is some amazing piece of work! I saw this picture and I thought that this was actually done by Murata, but now I know the truth. You are awesome! I really don't know how you came up with such an idea, but it was a excellent idea. I currently have it set as my wallpaper, and I have to say it is one of my favorite wallpapers ever! Keep up the awesome work!

colors model and grey background really brilliant. maybe it'll give A+ if you also draw something on white background (expand the gray background).
