a fairly simple wall i did. I was in the mood to do a design wall yet it seems like its the new fad these days so i went with something a little different. For those who are unaware or havent noticed, the wall is a blatant parody of the white stripes "get behind me satan" album art:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00097A5H2/ref=pd_kar_gw_1/104-3227002-2330313?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=5174the white stripes have always been one of bands in recent years that i like and i always loved their album art. i tried to recreate the basic composition of "get behind me satan" with chars from gankutsuou which is a show i havent gotten around to watching but deifnitely will sometime in the future. the original scans didnt have the hands in the right place so i had to edit and splice together other scans to create the correct pose for them. also, the apple was just vectored off of the album art along with whatever jack white was holding (i have no idea what that is). both chars were vectored and retextured using either stock, scans, or the kimono patterns from tama-neko's site:http://patterns.ming-ling.net/the pattern used in the back is from:http://squidfingers.com/patterns/and also credit goes to nageni, flyin, and shadowdude for double checking and crit. the wall.

its innovative and the thumbnail does not do it justice. I loee the whole parody idea, but red would've been a more obvious choice of overall color imo. Also, I love the pattern in the back but I don't like how it dies out so bluntly in the center and ends up on pure blue, which makes it seem a little too cheap.

Awesomeness...
I love the subtle patterns within the lighting.
You did a great job recreating the cover and if I had seen it before you asked me, it would have be ridiculously apparent...
Great work as always.

Good thing you mentioned the parody, I don't know the White Stripes that well, so I wouldn't have noticed. I really like it alot, but I think you could have done without them holding objects, it looks kinda strange...but I saw that anime and I like the relation between Haydee and the Count, so this is a very nice wallpaper.

Good Job. Simple but good. Nice colors, but try not to use pure reds or blues in a wall. Maybe if you used a couple different shades of blue it would look reall cool! Keep it up!

Beautiful wallpaper .. i like your composition and the vector is perfect ^^ The only things i should say is that the hands aren't in a good position ... Well ... i don't know if i'm understandable enough so i'll explain : If their hands were in a good position : their thumbs will be turned in our direction ^^ try to make the same pose or look at the one in the "get behind me satan" cover as the and i think you'll see what i mean ... In fact the hand which is supposed to be a right hand is in fact draw as a left hand ^^ Sorry i don't have a good english ^^
Anyway it's an awesome work ^^ +fav

Beautiful vector. The stock you used for Haydee's robe really suits the style of Gankutsuou, too. I think, though, that that empty blue space is a bit off.

Wow. :o Very well made wallpaper and like the colors you chose. ^_^

I like the contrast between the colors, black and blue..... beautiful wall~!!
7 years, 1 month ago
heh, mighty interesting the background has character, as well as the characters hair too abstract and extravagant for my taste, but still very well done and massively stylish those various shades of blue look good on it, blue is a special color beautiful indeed

aboslutely beuatifull. I especially like the way you put the pattern on the background instead of leaving it asa plain gradient. Definitly a +fav.

awsome use of patterns =3 i like her outfit^^ i really like the parody idea x3 good job on the vectoring and the character mix and match ~ the only thing that draws away from it is the text at the top which i don't really like ><"
7 years, 1 month ago
stylish....i absolutely love it, but i could do without the squidfinger pattern in the bg. it kinda throws off the stylishness cause it's kinda old-lady-ish.
im absolutley in love with the pattern you used for haydee's hair.
Have a nice day!

Hm, this wallpaper is very unusual and has a neat sense of style. The background may be a little too plain, but it seems to go well with the characters. The wallpaper is very simple and clean, but it can also be very complex and intricate. Very relaxing shade of blues in this one. Keep the work and effort up, Crapmonster!

haha! stupid new walls, buried this one so i didnt see u have a new wall xD anyway the wall's cool, cool parody xD, if i hadnt read that one comment in MT about the hands being in the wrong angle i wouldnt even notice xD
the patterns look really good :3 at first i thought i didnt like the blue in the BG in this one, but screw that, i do now >xD anyway the things i would just suggest if ur up to it..is the text? u could make it look like it's burning from the glare and maybe add some subtle flames at the bottom..@_@ well that's all from me, mr. crap xD
this wall is g00d stuff xD i havent tried walling that anime coz it looks like hell to do ><!

This wall is really interesting, the pictures are beautiful, tha background made enrich all work.

wow, it doesnt look promising when i 1st saw the thumbnails. but after looking at your descriptions they made me curious and i clicked the thumbnail and i was astonished. comparing to the album cover i can say you did very well. additional textures to the scan and the bg was nicely done too. hmm im quite curious abt this anime, gotto watch it someday :)

Oh wow.. Now that is something. Makes me want to finish the book even more =)

I agree with the previous posts about adding more colors to the background instead of shaded blue. I was sort of confused about the hands at the back haha. But ya it looks really cool~ nice work
7 years, 1 month ago
Omg I love this sooo much. This would not be the same in red. I don't knwo what they are thinking to suggest it. Amazing how you haven't seen it but capture the emotin of the anime perfectly. The blue color really brings a meloncholly saddness to the piece. This is going to stay on the ol' dp for quite some time.

Pretty unique, like the glowing blue hue however sumthing is missing. Like the composition though! keep up the good work!

I love the patterns everywhere.

Looks pretty good, the choice of colour seems a bit eccentric to me, because the blue and black for the background is the exact same colour as the clothing of the two, i dunno if this was intentional but it actually looks quite good IMO. nothing too much for me to critisize other than that xD

very interesting I like the colors!
6 years, 11 months ago
great wall, i think the patterns of the characters are really nicely chosen, but somehow the background isn't all that sweet, i think it fit's but it's somehow lacking the right finish. don't ask me what that could be though -_-;

Haydee' has two left hands.... But other than that, very nice paper! I'm using it.
6 years, 10 months ago
oh, I'm realy impressed with this parody :) You had a good idea, and I think that the look oof count and Hayde iis simmilar to those two from The White Stripes. Good job!

IMO, the background could use a little more work, but like this both of them stand out more.

I like the use of blue here instead of their usual green tones. The hands look a bit odd, like they're just floating there... I think the image could've been just as effective without them. overall though, great job!
6 years, 7 months ago
Wow.... this looks creepy yet classy. hmmmm. nice (:
6 years, 6 months ago
YUS~! I love thoe rwo, and I know it's not likely, but I love Haidee, she's my favourite charatcer, so I hope that hse can be happy and allways be with the count. ^^
6 years, 3 months ago
That's an interesting wall... the hands part reflect well how kind Haidee was and how scary the Count was , I think. Really well-made vectors.

I can't believe I didn't comment on this wall I have on my laptop for so long!
This wall is really amazing! I love the colors and the theme is sweet.
The vectoring and texturing is really perfectly suiting the style of the anime and if you still didn't have the chance to watch it I would tell you to do so as soon as possible cause it's really an amazing work they did on the coloring and texturing of the anime... :)
Anyway at last it's in my fav!

Awesomeness in wallpaper form xD
The hands look weird to me though, they seem kind of...disjointed. I love how many resolutions there are!

Great work. It looks very pretty indeed. I love all of the blue tones you have used - it creates a very striking effect. Love it! :D
4 years, 7 months ago
Ah, very nice indeed. A nice wallpaper for a wonderful series. My only complaint is that the two hands in the background look a bit... odd. It looks like the hands are growing out of their backs-- ouch! Maybe you could've faded the edges around the hands to make them look like a completely separate image not attached to the Count or Haydee?

The hands look really awkward and the background is way too simple for the patterns on the characters. It's a neat idea, though!
