I love the Art of Leiji Matsumoto... So when LORD DREAM submitted A moment in Time, I started this wallpaper at the same day. ^^ Thanks again, DREAM for all the beautiful scans! They always make me want to make wallpapers... even though I actually wanted to get more experience with drawing on my own. Anyways, I enjoyed making this wallpaper since I put my own interpretation of the girl in the original scan in it.
It may be influenced of watching Fushigi Yuugi (I was browsing through the gallery at MT and saw that kind of flowers in one of the scans).
Anyways I was experimenting a lot with the background again. It's always the most difficult part. I learned how to make my own pattern with this wallpaper... I wanted to have something sharp as a pattern in difference to the softness of the character, flowers and butterflies. I like this softness of Inner and Outer glow... My choice of colors... As usual I got attracted to black (I simply can't help it)... but to make it look a little more friendly I decided for this lilac/pink background color.
How many layers? I don't know. Most of the wallpaper was made in Adobe Illustrator. I only used Photoshop for the pattern. I had to lower the quality a bit in order to avoid a file bigger than 1MB. >_<
Oh well I hope you won't find this too idyllic, kitchy etc. Some people most certainly will... but I always like to try new things, new looks!

Oooo! I love the combination of that shade of pink and the black and white flowers. It's almost like the flowers should be the shade of the background, but instead they're black. It's very refreshing somehow.

Great job with her skin! It helps distinguish between her and the fabric, and keeps her from being on the same level as the background

Wow, what a striking image! I've always thought that Matsumoto's work was a bit plain, so it's a brilliant surprise to see a piece this gorgeous using his character designs accurately.

This is very sexy, yet subtle. The colours work so well together! There's a lovely retro feel to it (maybe this is because I used to watch these cartoons a lot when I was a kid, so it brings back a lot of memories), yet it looks amazingly fresh. Great job!
