Well after making the silly mistake of posting this as a 5 meg file (Haha...), hopefully this time around this will make it to the gallery.
This originally was not supposed to turn out the way it did, but I decided to just roll with it and see what happened in the end. And this was the end result! I'm not sure how appealing it is to others, but I think it came out looking quite nice... well, as nice as Ryuk gets at least. This style was the style I'd been using for my wallpapers for some time now, but I started to move away from it when I found new brushes and techniques to try out. Never a bad thing to go back to the old ways though, eh?
Anyway, expect to see another version of this wall sometime in the future, I've got more ideas cooked up for this one...
And here's a textless version:http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/6889/deathisonlyskindeepnotepl9.jpg

well, you know my opinion on this one. i still feel that the text blends too much into the bg, but that's just me. ^^;

i like to see some dark wallpapers, but i guess it is some what to be expected for a death note wallpaper. love the wings why the way

I like the colors you use in the wallpaper ^_^ and the scan fit's perfectly with the background... the wings looks really nice ^_^ but is a little hard read the text... i think is too dark and it lost in the background..... or maybe my monitor is too dark :P anyway is a really nice work ^_^

It's Nice Wallpaper. The Starring's Horrible Smile is Very Impressive. Bright Colors in His Face Improve His Own Feelings and Atmosphere. Effects in Black and Red Colors of the Background are Fantastic and Grotesque. Thanks for Your Good Work.

This is really nice, I love the way it looks.
you make something different and special here.
I like the creepy feeling wth the colors.
I love the red-black combination, and the image integrates greatly with your background.
Nice colors & Design on the Background.
Keep it up, can't wait to see more. ^__^

Hmm, this wallpaper seems kinda empty :|
I think you could add something more, maybe a better background since the Ryuk scan is so small : /
nice job though.

I love Ryuk! You chose a very good picture of him for the subject of this wallpaper. I like how the background colors contrast and point your eyes to Ryuk and his Shinigami smile. You did a great job, especially since you don't see many good pictures of Ryuk out there. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see more from you soon! :)

I have to admit that I'm quite the Ryuk fan and you've found a very much fancy picture of him and made a magnificent wallpaper of it. Superb!

I agree with the other commenters about the text being too dark/blending in with the background. Other than that though, I find this wall AMAZING. The red texture behind Ryuk also helps flesh out the wall more so it isn't too focused on the right. I'm making this one of my faves, good work!!
