NOTE: Fullview please, the thumbnail looks nasty! I swear it's actually very clean D':
Yet another entry from the War II over at Povism.org, for the Melancholy-themed contest against EVI! One of the stipulations was that you could only use one character, which is why the cat is missing from my vector. Go Vertigo Assembly! Kick butt in my absence ;D;!
This whole thing was vectored/painted by me in Photoshop CS2, except the pattern on the wall. I got it from some website, but I forget where :'D Not much else to say about this, other than it took forever to make!
As usual, thanks go to Potatacakes and Gideon for their input & to Yina-baby for putting up with my insanity!
Tatekane says to add: "this is Tate coz her pet's gone missing :'D"
Comments and favourites are loved!
P.S. Don't expect much from me for a while, but then ready yourselves for a Misuspam in the middle of August! Also, If you live in New York or Scotland, look out for a crazy girl running around screaming & flailing over the next few weeks! I'm not liable for any damage I may cause :'D
P.P.S. Are there any other Carnegie Mellon University students on Animepaper? :'D

The vector's awesome. The clouds are my favorite part of the wall.
I wish you kept the cat and made the wall darker though.

its a simple wall, although it probably wasnt simple when it was in the making. its definitely a good one of that character and its one of my fave's
4 years, 10 months ago
Yeah the fullview is much much better. Excellent job on this one!
4 years, 10 months ago
Ah lovely! I love Darker than Black, and it's nice to see another wall for this category. Vectors are nice and neat although i have to agree with tate, that the highlights on the piano needs to be smudged a little to make it blend in more nicely. Awesome job on the floor! You've also done a good job at making this wall look melancholic. It's very fitting with the theme.
Congrats on the win! But EVI will be back to reclaim our victory! >=D
4 years, 10 months ago
Yeahhh VA! XD
You picked the perfect scan for this challenge... this fits the theme perfectly. And the vector's perdy, too! :D
4 years, 10 months ago
I can say this wallpaper is totally gorgeous and although some may be surprised, my favourite part is the texture on the wall. Gives such a neat feel to this wall. I also like the way you modified the curtains to a simpler mode. It was clever and I bet you did that to save time. Now, what I would really like to see on this wall would be a more dramatic and intense lighting just like the scan and maybe painted clouds 'cause the vectored ones feel a little too solid for my taste. I still lurve this the same. Those suggestions are of course a matter of taste. Your vectors pwn. We'll Missyou Misu! favs x 2

Very nice! I love how sharp the vectors look! The piano looks great! Loads of detail, right down to the polish on the wood surfaces! I love the light effects too! Lots of great shadows which really gives this wallpaper a great atmosphere! The young lady looks awesome! This series is on my "to buy" list should it ever reach NZ! Great art! Favorite!
4 years, 10 months ago
Not bad, not bad at all. One could easily mistake this for a Newtype scan. The only thing that I am not really convinced of are the clouds in the background (grey clouds at night? o_O), which might have been more convincing if they were painted . And probably some of the areas of the background could be emphatized more with more lighting/shading but I guess that looks pretty much fine already as it is. :)

It's Very Wonderful Dark Wallpaper. Dark Background and Purple Dress are Well-Matched with the Starring's Sad Face Expressing Her 'MELLONcholic' Concept and Vector are Simple but Feeling from This Wallpaper is Very Impressive. Thanks for Your Good Work.

I sort of agree with what Shinn said about the clouds... I have a great weakness for fluffy, painted clouds lol... but aside from that, this is overall amazing. The dramatic lighting on the girl and the texture are my favorite parts. Maybe the gold line on the piano to the left could be darkened a bit too but... what the heck... *shuts up and favs*

4 years, 10 months ago
I love it >< Can't believe that you vectored the whole thing!~ Yin looks really sad and gloomy.. wonder who she's thinking of... her piano teacher? Her mother? or maybe Hei...?
4 years, 10 months ago
great vector, gotta love the ground. the curtains could be transparent. but its good this way fav+
4 years, 10 months ago
i'm totaly in love with the pattern on the wall!!! it's sooo pretty I agree with some of the stuff said above... but anyway i think those clouds are pretty cool for being vectored.. i mean, not many people can achieve good looking vectored clouds, maybe the colors could be changed a bit, but it doesn't matter... i don't know why, but i just like them anyway :P About the inside scene.. i can't say much, cause it's beautifull.. i love the lighting on the piano cause i preffer pure vector shapes :P without smudging or blurring, i like to play with gradients instead... anyway, that's just my personal taste :P the floor looks awesome too... favie ;]
4 years, 10 months ago
I love this wall : ) Very nice vector. I think her pose and face expression fits the theme very well. Also like that it's dark yet it's still has soo many thing to see in it. I especially love the white shines on the piano it gives such a great contrast. Good job! +fav
4 years, 10 months ago

LOL, a wall on one of the most melancholic (read: emo) girls in anime that are so attractive... I know, it is just me actually, but I love this girl, and the way you wall her, this wallpaper just has no ends as to how I would love to enjoy it, I am using it as I speak, this is perhaps one of those wallpapers that I most desire to use for a long long time. Plus... NO brightness! I love dark walls, and this is perfect in every way.

I really, really, wanted to vector the scan. And I was about to start too. But I guess you beat me to it ;_; I can't complain though, you did a lot better job at vectoring than I probably could have done. Awesome wall ^^
A few things; The light reflection on the piano is a bit too bright and strong; the lighting is really gentle in this image. And also, I would have loved it if you included the rays of moonlight that was in the original. But other than that, I'm loving the clean lines and the awesome vectoring. And your wall pattern rocks ^_^ +fav

i'm so lame, i wrote my comment out for this wall, but never submitted it -__-;;;
My fave part of the wall is the textured wall, adds more dimension to everything. The vector is all aroud awesome, and the piano is basically perfect. The detail in the flooring is exceptional, and the dark somber colors really do give it a melancholic feel, it's your typical amazing wall lol

The background is looking interesting, the interior, and the piano looks good. The character is looking good, she fits to the background well. A short text would be nice, good wallpaper.

that's a really good wall, i love it. but i think if there was water, around her feet like a cup of water that's been spilt on the piano and it's dripping on the floor.

Awsome vector! You bring out the darkness in the wallie which suits the anime darker than black. =) I like the piano. Indeed a good piece of work.

Wow, this is very well done. The vectoring is excellent and the dark colors really add to the mood making the mood and atmosphere very realistic. Sadly though, it would be better if you had made a moon which would even add more to the atmosphere. Overall however, it's a very good work.

Lookin' good, nice detail overall. However the clouds look kinda weird imo and the curtains would prolly look good transparent. One of the better Yin walls, overall good wallpaper.
4 years, 4 months ago
Uh... I love Yin. *sukiiiii* And this specific image is just :3 .
Anyway, about the wallpaper:
The vector is just great. It doesn't look too solid, as most of the vectors do - it looks more anime-ish, which is great. Need more to say about it? It is very clean and I like the colors alot. The pattern on the wall is adorable. The only thing I don't like is the clouds outside of the window. You could make it looks more real.
To sum up:
This wall is made of win.

I love this. the darkness, her normal blank (and somewhat sad) stare, and piano are really befitting for her past and ability to have some sort of emotion not commonly known for a doll. great job on this!

Oh my, this is stunning! Really amazing vector, you did an excellent job! My favorite picture of Yin so far. And you captured her expression so well, I'm not used to this high quality of vectors! I also love how you did the piano, it's looking top notch!
And I'll have to favorite this one, I'll be using it as my wallpaper now. Congrats! 8)E

The wallpaper is made very simple. No unnecessary brushes, no *bling* *bling* sparkle effects. I really like this simplicity. Yin looks very melancholic as if she would remember her past. The wind is softly blowing through the window and you can see dark sky of night. It's a wonderful atmosphere, but these clouds in the background don't fit into it. They force the observer to look at them and so his attention is distracted from Yin. In truth I really miss the moon and his silver light, which is discussed in one episode ( I don't know its name at this moment). In this episode we learn that the silver light has a very special meaning to Yin, because it's symbol for her sadness.
However, you did a great job ;)

This looks like such a bittersweet picture of Yin. But you did an excellent job vectoring and infusing the wall with feeling. Good job =)

The wall have some great shadowing done. Especially on the curtains, there's many shadow layers. The lighting is also done according to perspective. The moonlight really does the wall some justice. :D
The closed piano is also remarkable. Black and umm... sparkling shiny...LOL. Oh yeah, the floor is also nicely done as well. In all, it's FaNtaStIc!! ^_^
