Well, I learned a lot of lessons from my last FMA wallpaper, so I figured I'd apply them here. For this wall I decided to try and replicate the look and feel of the Genshiken club room, lots of manga and lots of posters everywhere with Saki just kind of sitting around and waiting as the sun sets. I got the posters from scans off of AP (I went for manga-looking posters to match the look of the character) and as for the manga I just scanned in my own manga collection spines up (so I wouldn't have to try creating them myself in photoshop). Overall this one was harder to conceptualize and figure out than acutally make, but I think it turned out pretty good. Enjoy!

The colours immediately add warmth to the wall and the background is really neat. I enjoy walls where they depict a real scene, rather than those with shiney lights all over the place ^^ .
Great work :) .

I really like the contrast between the "real" girl and her anime counterparts. Funny how they're her competition! The colors on this are really nice, and the mood is good, you really get the idea of sunset. I think the layout could use some tweak rearranging (the right side feels really cluttered), but that's pretty minor. All in all, good job!

Everything in the wall works nicely with each other, the colours are perfect.

I like the whole warm tones feel, although it seems like it's a classy hotel rather than a club room! XD Very nice, red.

i love this wallpaper because it approaches genshiken from such a great new angle. the glow of the light matches saki's eyes perfectly, and i love how crisp the background posters are.. they weren't even that clean in the manga. good job!

really nice effects man love the colours because they blend so well thanks for this wallpaper

There's nothing better than a wally with some good looking lighting :) I absolutely love the clouds.

for once, the use of other anime images in the wallpaper actually works!!! the usage of them as posters was an genous idea!

Very nice, I love the colors. It's beautiful. Good job ^^

i was just looking at the manga in the corner and THOSE are REALLY well done. look at those caps for emphasis. i mean, wow. it blew my mind... though something about saki... it just doesn't look like her.
7 years, 8 months ago
Love it! It looks great and it gets to be on my desktop now! ;)

Easily the most beautiful wallpaper I've seen here. Top notch work!

Genshiken is a show I can like a lot. I do a lots of things like this people. Buy anime, buy figures, visit conventions, watch video with my friends....ero...hmmm, maybe some bits of it. I like this show. Wish there are more of it.
I like how Saki chan sits here and the different pictures hanging in the wall of the different anime shows are here too. The color palette you used for this one looks fine. The fonts you used for the "Genshiken" title looks adequate for this one. Sorry if I mispelled something.
Overall, this wallpaper looks fine and I like it. I should give a fav, I must.

Cool! the bg is very good and it fits incredibly well the scan used. great work!

While I agree with an earlier comment that the right side seems cluttered, I don't think that detracts from the wallpaper. Given the Genshiken club room, I actually think that it adds to it. I think your wallpaper really captured what Genshiken was. It was the otaku with their hentai, doujinshi, and anime girl posters, and it was Saki. When I first saw the title of it, and what was in it, i immediately thought of Saki waiting for Kohsaku to stop being an otaku. Great job!

I like warm colours done well. Very lucid wall, and as opposed to most walls I see, I actually approve of the typography used here. Yay. ^^ I think the posters, while a nice touch aren't quite attached to the wall in the back as convincingly as they could be.. maybe thicker edges to denote some shadow, or more a obvious pin-up or taped up effect could improve that aspect a little.
Overall it's awesome. Great job on the room, esp. the bookcase. ^^

such quality is amazing

I'm still trying to figure out if I like the posters in the back or not, but regardless, it's still a favorite. You have a wide variety in your wallpapers and I like pretty much all of them. I never expected to see such a great Genshiken wall so it's definitely a keeper. I do want one of Ohno though...

Ver nice work! This babe very cute... ;) And the bg is really good... Other than that, I think you did a fairly well job keep up the work!

It is atmosphere that cuts out one scene in daily life. The empty color seen in the other side of the window is beautiful. However, I think that you should save the person poster of the person and the wall that is reflected in the window.

Well... This is the genshiken room, so that's the reason for the posters on the background. It won't be the Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture without those posters hehe. Good work, any Genshiken fan would just adore the roomy feel.

This one look also good and the sun reflect look good for the area. Nice job. Keep up the good work and good luck my friend.

The color is great, it makes me feel warm, it's not harsh to my eyes.

SAKI! I love this wallpaper to death. Your attention to detail is amazing, especially the posters up on the wall behind her. I love how you perfectly captured the lighting, and the general feeling, of an evening sunset.

i love how soft saki-san looks in this picture, it's a side of her you usually don't get to see. great wall!

Great job matching the wallpaper's theme to the character. The warm colors create a feeling of longing that matches the character perfectly. The execution is spot-on too. I just wish you had made a higher resolution version!

Nice choice of tone.
Saki-chan's pose works very well. She looks kawaii. ^^
The 'watercolour paint look' softens up the image very nicely, but while still keeping the edges intact.

Great wallpaper. Like how it is a late afternoon in the clubroom. The appreciate the attention to detail.

I like this image- it shows Saki when she's being vulnerable, and yet at the same time, demonstrates the sassiness for which she's known for. The wafting tones of color help give the impression that she's waiting for a sun to set or rise on her story. Great wallpaper. :)
