The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya Knock Out

This.. a result of being bored in my graphics class. At least we're moving on to 3ds Max now, but my final project will definitely be done in Photoshop, and hopefully it's something I can post here.

Very interesting wallpaper. Making the arena and all the details on it was the biggest pain. I don't watch wrestling or boxing so I don't really know for sure how the lighting works. How the lighting would effect the image, though, was very self explanatory, since there are no natural sources of light.

I do have a version where Mikuru is sweating, but it honestly isn't too noticable, and if it is it sticks out too much, so i decided not to post that version. The background is supposed to be an audience which i decided to blur out because I wanted Mikuru to be the dominant subject.

As a side note, 1366x768 is also a 16:9 aspect ratio (same as 1920x1080)

EDIT: IF ANYONE WANTS REVISION 1 PLEASE MESSAGE ME OR LEAVE A COMMENT, I WILL UPLOAD ON PHOTOBUCKET OR SUCH.

Terms of Use: Same ol' Same ol'. I'll only be posting here and Minitokyo. Any other place you see this on is not by me (unless if it's on my dA which has the same username). If you do see someone other than myself posting this please tell me so I can deal with it. I honestly hate plagiarism, and have had many people steal drawings or wallpapers from me before.
