OK well, this is my first wallpaper... I'll try to answer the q's in the FAQ as best as I can.
The aim for this wall... well, nothing really, except just to make it look good in my eyes. I think I have done a decent job. Initially I planned to do some cityscape lighting and buildings as the background, but well, due to lack of skills this never happened. Instead this wintery sort of theme appeared.
I am also a fan of abstract / landscape hybrid wallpapers... although this one is mainly abstract, I tried to incoporate a landscape into it, but well, it appears it didn't show up.
The wall has gone through MANY revisions; the first few versions of this wall initially had the scan done as a silhoette; you can check out the progress of this wall at Session Zero.
This wall took me around a day to make. (time combined-wise)
I like the scan. I really would have loved a better background of lighting/buildings, but I couldn't get around to doing that.
And that's about it. Hope I've made a worthy contribution to AP, as this is my first wall.

I like the lighting affect like the sunsets coming down on them, really great wallpaper over all, its bright, I'm a sucker for bright wallpapers.

For being your first wallpaper this is a very great result. Background fits the characters, but as you mentioned a city landscape might've been more suited. Still good contribution and hope to see your second wallpaper soon. +fav

ahhhh BLACK CAT<33 nice wall!
6 years, 7 months ago
Excellent job! Especially for a first time! All kinds of love for the Train-kun! ^^ I actually rather like the bg on this piece it works well with the main image to support the lighting feel and the glowier texture of the piece. Gives it a feel slightly out of the everyday I guess. Anyway I like that. ^^ Makes a lovely desktop piece, good job on your first run! I look forward to seeing more!

This is a very very nice wall. and Black Cat too! you dont get to see those often. the only I don't like are those sparkle thingys. it'll look much better imho if you take them out.

Nice wall. Good job on the lighting. I think it would look better if the bg wasn't blurred so much.
6 years, 7 months ago
Nice job, just got a little critiq on the background though. Too blurry and an overkill on sparkles. For a first time paper, its quite nice.

You did a great job with this. If your aim was to make it look good, then you succeded! Especially since I've seen that image before in wallpaper form but it only had Train in it. So thank you for putting Sven in it as well! It's very crisp and clean so I love it.^_^

Beautiful. I love the soft glow and I can really appreciate a wall with colors that don't make my eyes scream. And let's face it, there just aren't enough wallpapers of Train and Sven together out there.

6 years, 4 months ago
Nya!! Train-nii and Sven-chan!! <3 I love this wallpaper and I love both the 2 characters (more of all Sven taht is my favourite)!

This wallpaper is very well put together for your first time. The elements of the wall are exelent and sit nicely with all the other elements. The cityscape might have better suited this but it looks great just the way it is.
Keep up the good work you obviously have talant.

First wallpaper, huh? I still remember my first wallpaper... Well, this one you did is not bad, great job on lighting effects. The blurred BG is okay, I guess, but the glittersparks are a bit of an overkill... They do add some flavour to the wall but I feel like something is missing...
Another thing you could improve is image quality. For that blurry BG, the characters should look a bit sharper I think. While Sven looks fine, Train is sort of desaturated compared to him. The least I can advise is adjusting the levels for the whole wall to bring out the stocks and give it more of a contrast...
I like the way the text looks, but am not sure it is in the best place on the wall... Maybe you should try moving it around a bit to see where it suits best?
The signature could be a little more creative... Plain Times New Roman really throws the wall off imo. And, moreover, the "characters" line is pretty much unreadable where it goes over Sven's white suit...
Nice attempt overall... Main two suggestions are levels adjustment and signature improval. It's a good start! Good luck on your future walls, and sorry if I was a bit harsh there =)

I love the shine on the characters! Makes this wall just stick out from the others, as well as being crisp and clear.
5 years, 11 months ago
Wow! Nice job. I have to admit its done quite wonderfully. Its become one of my favorites.
5 years, 11 months ago
I really like this wallpaper, and I was going to save it until I saw one detail in particular that is out of place: the XIII on Train's chest is backwards! Was your source image like this to begin with or did you flip it yourself to fit your design? I can't bring myself to save it because of the error >.<
I can't believe no one commented on that before either. It's still a great wallpaper though.

Nice Wallpaper! I have seen Black Cat just yesterday. I Like it very much.
5 years, 7 months ago
You know, this is one of those walls where a full view makes all the difference. It looks great! I really like the background (even if you didn't make a cityscape as planned), and all the little stars give it some limelight, as well as the vertical light streaks (which look much better in full view - which you might want to note on your description). The characters are a tad lost in the background, but this allows your text to pop right out and I like the effect that is created because of it. Very nice job!
5 years, 7 months ago
For this to be your first wallpaper, I have to say that you did an amaxing job with it.
The characters in this wallpaper are surrounded by light making them stand out more in the composition. However, to make that not so strong, you did a nice blurring effect by using Swen's tobacco smoke. You also changed the auto-levels of the scan to a more yellowish tone so that it fits better in the background.
The concept of the background is also very interesting. Even if it's blurred, one can recognize a city-ish feeling in it, which fits the Black Cat series atmosphere like a glove.
Overall, great job!

the lighting effect is awesome although i can't identify where the source is XD
