Hi, everyone, this is my second shana wallpaper, also my second vector i have ever made.
To begin with, I saw this scene from the anime a few months before, and was attracted by it for it is cute and lovely. So i decide to vector it out by using the only method i have just learnt, the path. Resize it, paint it, draw some part of the picture. This is really a hard work for me, I used one week to vector shana, around thirty something hour accumulated within the week. Another two weeks for background and adjustment. Today, is the last day of the third week. (OMG, i wasted three weeks on a wall >o<)
As it is in a "festival", adding firework is a must . Sadly, I don't know how to make fireworks, so i just simply vector the firework by using real life firework shot><.There are some "orange-yellow" light on her head, for it is the lighting effect of the firework.
I would like to thz halcyonTwilight for his support and guidance on my wall~ .(n_n).
If you really like it, plz drop me a comment><, also +fav is always welcomed

The background looks very nice, the fireworks, and the misty scenery looks really good. The character is looking nice, though the colors of her kimono could be a bit stronger, like deep red, maybe with flower patterns. The title looks good, very nice wallpaper.

Nice wallpaper! Shanna looks really cute in this wallpaper and the background is very nice also. I particularly like the firework and mists added, which make the background looks great! Btw, there's nothing wrong with the direction of the shadow.

The background is well composed and simple, which is awesome. The fireworks doesn't really look like fireworks, but it's all right since it looks good anyways ^^ The text is a lot better than last time, and props to learning how to use textures :)
Like I said, your vector is the weak point in this wall. It isn't that bad, but it could be a lot better. Shana's mouth is a bit crooked, and the ribbon in her hair isn't that detailed, and it isn't completely outlined. The hair is pretty good, and so is the kimono, but it's the little details in vectors that stand out a lot.
With simple screenshots, it's easy to use basic vectoring methods. But as you vector more advanced and detailed scans, you'll probably need to switch vectoring techniques. But don't feel down though, because i'm just being hard on you XD
The wall is a very, very nice step towards being a really good waller. You have the vision, and you have the talent. Now you just need practice and time :) Nice work.

I like the character and the fire works~ But the sky needs a little work~ (Its a little too dark, and the left side the light of the fire works looks too cloudy)
But its a really cute wallpaper^.^ Keep up the great work^.^

Shana Wearing Japanese Traditional Suit is Really Really Cute. In Animation Shana Expressed Her Cutness in the First Time. Vector of Shana and Flames of Firework is Nice and Stable. Shana's Cute Face and Flames in the Dark Backgrounds Shows Strong Contrast. Thanks for Your Good Work

Honestly, it is good but can be WAY better. 1) go in and detail the vector (especially that mouth!) 2) go in photoshop and add some effects here and there to make the fireworks look brighter perhaps with a trail. (needs thought) otherwise i like it. Basically just needs a fine tuning

Although the balance somewhat bothers me (everything is to the left, right is pretty much empty even with the stars), I still like this. The vector looks good though as some pointed it might be better with more details, fireworks look good. Could use some more detail on the star field I think.
Yet, very good piece and even though I said all that I will add it to my collection ;)

Arrgghh....I'm so late with saying how cool this wallpaper is....I must say my friend that you have what is called patience...i don't think I could have spend seven days on just one wallpaper....but it was worth it. The original scan and the backround are crisp and clean and very colorful.
Terrific work as usual Sandy.

Beautiful wall and i think you have done a great job on the fireworks cuz until you told us that you had vertored it from a real life shot, i thought that you had simply drew it or that it was taken from else where... anyway, great wall, keep up the good job!
