This is Mich (Tsu's char), an OC from the story "Lebenszeit". This scene marks the time before Mich loses his right eye. He's sitting in one of the empty dorm rooms trying to read. Since he can be quite arrogant, he doesn't actually tell you to leave him alone, but stares you down. Mich's season is autumn which is why I tried to use a lot of red/orange and yellow. The light is coming from one of the windows. I wanted the drawing to look warm and bright despite the fact that it's autumn.
The books in the bg contain 2 RL books, try to find them 8D If you wiki them, you could also get to know Mich better whose char info still hasn't been revealed yet.
Tools: Mainly SAI, editing done in PS, Intuos 3 A4 Time: 1-2 days
Lebenszeit (art and story) by Tsu and Yina Lebenszeit is German and stands for "time of life".

I'm NOT only commenting to be the first commenter on one of your walls >:P. To the matter at hand: That blue ribbon coming out of the book to the left is too shiney, when i try to look at the character it catches my eye a little. The character's nose and neck are a little distorted but it somewhat fits in a way. I'd also put less shading next to his ribcage. Aside from that, briliant. I love his hair and his pose really matches here on the bookshelf. How he looks at the camera, wondering about what are we looking at is fun to exprience. But it is the light that makes this wall S+ worthy; It's lively, exact in many ways, and pleasant to the eye in general. The placement of those bright circles is undoubtly correct. Great wall. I understand that you have returned to the wall making business, welcome back xD

Do my eyes deceive me!? Another wallpaper from @Yina?!
Totally loving the mash-up of cold and hot colors here. :3 The subtle textures are PURE LOVE. I really love the bokeh lights as well. Nice way of incorporating your signature on the bok spine. +1. LOL. XD

Quote from MT:
About the books, I spy two titles: "The Prince" and "Purgatorio"...so I suppose the first one is Machiavelli's "The Prince", and the second one, it's from Dante's Divine Comedy, aren't they? :) It's a pretty interesting choice of books...but from the description that you did of this character, I can understand enough WHY he can like them :3

;A; * can't stop staring at bishie* one thing though, I think the shading at around the neck/collar bone area needs to be fixed a little owo I don't think it would follow a shape like that just based on structure .

Very bright and vivid image . Image still needs strengthening , but to criticize the artist is always easier than creating their own. I really like this work .
