there is definately alot of emotion going on in this wp. i like how you did batosai's face with the scar that never seemed to heal. the blood on the surroundings as well as the scars on the rest of him show a recetn battle just there (obviously), bringing the emotions and lack there of that take place during battle war with the emotions he often feels when left to his own thoughts. nice job

A dark but colorful wall...I like the simple composition with just the character and the screen The character looks pretty blurry in comparison to the wood though...it might help to either soften the background parts to make them look more painted or have more sharp outlines on Kenshin...especially his hair I definitely like the color and style of the wall though

The patterns in the background give the wall an eeriee look, which I think you were going for. I absolutely *love* what you did with Kenshin's eyes. They really reflect the evil of the manslayer he was back in the days of the Revolution.

Wow. That was my first reaction upon seeing the full view of this one. The way the character is slightly blurred didn't really register in the thumbnail as well as the full view, but it looks excellent and the atmosphere is amazing. Very good work on it.

very nice! i actually can't remember what the bg looked like before but this version is very pretty. i still feel that he's alittle too blurred but that's ok. it's a nice dark wp so it's easy to get away with it. lol, damn you for using those textures :P i'm working on a wall with some of them in it. it's a good site, lots of nice patterns.

There's something alluring and sexy about this kenshin. Lol I personally like the contrasting blurry and sharpness of it all. I don't know if it was intentional, but I like it. The background's nice, great blood splatter and design there. *fav*

Very VERY nice! This wallpaper, is all about the BG really, but i must say, that your choice of the stock, was very nice, i really love the BG you used, as i'm saying it a 2nd or 3rd time lol. But it's jsut really nice. The blood is a little too much if you ask me, and also the stock cut out is not good, sjut fix those, and it'll be perfect!

I'll add it as a favoirite, kuz again for the BG :D GJ!

I don't like the colors much, but certainly the pose and the effects are cool. I would've like a little more colors, like some green. I know it's the atmosphere of the wall itself, but I just find it too much depressing.

Omg, I love this wall so much. Besides the fact that Kenshin looks absol-effingly-hot, I also love the somewhat mysterious and alluring aura it gives me. The simple yet elegant background is one of the best elements of this wall. When I first saw this in the thumbnail, I thought Kenshin looked too blurred and doesn't blend in with the sharper background; however, once zoomed in, everything actually fits together rather nicely. The sharp black outlines of the wood panels on the doors still stand out too much and is a downside, and perhaps there could've been more shadowing on the doors to give them more dimension; despites these negatives, this wall still completely captivates me, and I think you deserve many kudos for it ^^

This has to be one of my favorite wallpapers I have seen. I absolutely love the coloring and the patterned background. Very nice atmosphere all together. I like the way Kenshin is not as sharp as the background he is against.

It is superb! Splendid! I like much the title, I find that it sticks super good to the wall! One would almost believe to be in front of him, braked by a curtain of blood. Very beautiful work!

I remember seeing this artwork some years ago and it's one of my favourites. It's a bit blurred at the higher resolutions though and I feel that the lines/edges of the wood on the doors/windows behind Kenshin stand out a bit. At least, in the way that the styles used for the wood, the outline, what you can see past the door/window and the style on Kenshin himself appear disjointed.

So dark and angsty- just like Kenshin in Samurai X. Beautifully rendered and the blood stains on the shoji is a nice touch. Makes me want to watch said anime again. Fantastic.

Holy hell man, you made kenshin look like a freakin demon in human form, thats AWESOME! I love the wall! specially the back ground! Only 2 very small qualms I have about it is this, the blackness inbetween the two parts of the door, its just so black and empty, nothing there, I though you could've added some sort of a dark light glowing, or maybe a something that just shows outdoors or a different room cause the black just makes you wonder =/ and the lack of body lines, theres alot of scars but nothing like, abs, or ribs, just a small line showing a bit of the pex, but thats alright.

The pic all around is AMAZING and is going on my favs!

I love the pattern on the Shoji? doors. It's really very beautiful if a little sad. I love the distinction between Kenshin and Hitokiri, the eye color that is. Really a very powerful piece.

i don't like this wallpaper because kenshin is bathing in "blood" i hate to see kenshin like this but i appreciate what you've done and don't get angry with me i'm just saying my opinion and i'm just being honest i don't want to lie to everybody.

i said this because i adore kenshin himura so much and i really like this anime, maybe i would be happy if kenshin is happy in here :)

I always liked this image, though I think that it's a bit soft in comparison to how sharp the lines are in the background fencing that you used (as the pattern you can see through that netting is also soft, the lines of the woodwork stand out in an oddly disconcerting starkness). Otherwise, good composition.
