Hi everyone, This is my wallpaper based on Clover. For this manga I would use a scan that wasn't used in other wallpapers, I saw the MT e AP walls and I didn't see this scan:
First I've vectory, as always, the scan with my Illustrator no line-art tech. After that I thought about the concept and I realized that her future dress could be used for a space travel, as the Wallpaper Game "Space Odyssey" requests, infact this is my entry for that. So I imagined a story where Suu escapes from the Earth.
On Photospop I created a double circle, onto the outside I've added a 3d photoshop tool, in the circle inside I've used a magenta color and erased it. On the left I've added a black/white shade and putted Suu on the right. I copied and pasted the Suu vector and putted it behind the firstone, I overlaied black color, smudged the result with the PS Filter and reduced its opacity to 50%, this to create the reflex effect. For the background I used a real Earth space photo and added on it a filter, with the clone tool I modified some continents to create a sort of new planet. With two different space brushes I added the stars and after that I've colored the space and smudged the color level and reduced its opacity. At least I've used a second real sunrise space photo and I overlayed it on the others level, erased the unuseful parts, smudged with the PS filter, and riduced its opacity at 70%.
Hope you like my idea.

I definitely like the green one better. After staring at both versions for a while it seems like a better color with the curtain! Really clean and beautiful space background, love the stars and the flare going on on the crest of that planet looks stunning! Excellent work!

your star bg is amazing you could have put a picture of anything on top of that and it would still loove great, amazing work on the bg! would be cool to see you mix up those two colors, i always love seeing those star bg's with a nebula like with multiple colors and flares, okay rambling now hah!

I'm glad to see you branching out to try different styles, and this is certainly a nice attempt to create a new atmosphere but I think you really need to polish your technique.
CLAMP artwork is really complex and thus, simplificating it might not work well all the time, I frankly believe Suu should have more layers of shading, especially on her clothes. You can rely on gradients as a way of shading, but in non-abstract wallpapers it might be insufficient.
The golden lighting on the planet is probably my favorite part of the wall, you really nailed it but when I see the rest of the background I can help but feel disappointed: the planet is very jagged. I think these wallpapers offer some nice examples of a successful starry sky and planet background: Nysha's For All Eternity, storm-and-fire's 's Don't go and leave me and alenas' Your Prettiest Nightmare.
At any rate, keep it up, can't wait to see your improvements.

Thank you Fran, I try to work on different style. I know what you mean, Clamp's works are great and so detailed and my vector tech doesn't respect their complexity, but I like their works so much, although my vector tech is not so good as their works need.
Thank you very much for your opinion and advice I appreciated it and I will try to do better works ^_^"

I agree with some previous people. You did make a great wallpaper and personally I like the revision better, but if there was just some lighting on the glass to show the effect of her being in a room on a space ship. I dunno im not that picky, its good now but there will always be room for improvement
