The image was vectored and I made heavy use of patterns and textures. The patterns on Doa's kimono and hakama are indeed patterns I took from MetalGearSolid.org and cleaned up, I adore them. =3 Doa's pose in this scan is just awesome, maybe you notice how the s-shaped symbol is not only present on her clothes and weapon but also in her pose, somehow even in the flow of her coat. Words can't express my love for this scan anymore. The background was a real hazzle, I just couldn't decide what kind of abstract shapes too use, I was really torn there, should I use smoke, brushes,... -.- In the end I decided to use some flowers from my unfinished vector of this scan plus some more texture and because I'm really untalented in choosing and placing text I simply left that out. The only question that's left to me is how I still manage to come up with calm, drained colours when I start out with a bright, colourful scan and the set intention to do something bright and colouful? It's beyond my comprehension. Textures and patterns were taken from: DA!, Hybrid-Genesis and Deviantart.
Hope you enjoy this a little.

Love all the textures you've used in her garments. It really flows with the rest of the wallpaper. The background flowers really match the style of the rest of the wallpaper and I especially love your the way you interpreted that painted scan into this vector style. Excellent work! :)

Whoooooa! That's what I call a wonderful, skilled wallpaper! The vector is awesomely done... The colorscheme is elegant, very pleasant - and suits the charcter very well. Really nice composition, I enjoyed the brushes and textures used (though I would let the blue flowers as a entire piece - I mean, I wouldn't cut any of them).
Well... My new favourite.
Shinny work! P(T_T)

I like the vector and the textures, it's all blended fairly seamlessly, the only thing I hesitated on was the green outline. It doesn't contrast with the background enough to come across as being done intentionally. Just my personal preference. Ultimately, I can tell you put a lot of work into this.

Love the beautiful color palette. Lovely job on the flowers, and the girl came out very nicely. I also like how you kept the bg simple, with just the level of pattern. Great job! Fav.

Gosh, this is such a beautiful wall. You're the first one I've ever seen to use this color tone with Blade Of The Immortal (such a great manga) Yet it's so captivating... *__________*
The vector is gorgeous, and it blends perfectly with the background. I must say that your use of the flowery is indeed remarkable, considering that it's not a part of the vector. They blend seamlessly, and the colors are way too great!!! >______< The illustration itself is beautiful, but your vector is nearly flawless. I love ittttt! (can't help, I've always love this scan XDDD)
A new fav for this week XDD Keep on trying pal ^^

Awesome haven't seen many blade of the immortal wallpapers lately, the image and the background look great, never seen the image before so thats a plus. all in all it looks good. no clutter around the conners, so the focal point is the center. great if you wanna use it as an xBox360 wallpaper. good job.

Kya~~~~~~~~h! It's Doa! Ahem, well. Nice use of color, it's very vivid without detracting from the line art. I really like your choice of background, the colors in it match and compliment her costume, and it's simple enough to, again, not detract from that awesome pose that inspired you. Over all, a great wallpaper!

Oh god I love those textures. And the colors, there's so many of them but even so it's not too bright :D

This is exquisite, I've wanted to see this as a wallpaper since I first saw the image. I'm also a huge fan of Makie--she's interesting like many of the Blade of the Immortal characters. The use of textures is nice, and the colors combine to give it a nice water-colored feel.

Your use of color pulls this together well; the yellow in the dagger and the leaves, the gray in her cap and flowers, and the nice green outline are all quite harmonious. I know this is an old wallpaper, but it's very rare to find something so well done for this particular category because so few people read it.

i love the way you do your wall because i love the "art nouveau". the flower and the way the caracter are lined and vectored for this kind of art. nice choice of colors and the position of the woman is pretty cool. +fav
