been a while! here's something rather minimalistic. at one point, it was going to be more filled up. but in the end, i figured the void went with the mood projected by the characters. >__< skill-wise, it's basic stuff. i vectored a manga page, put in gradients by masking shapes, and added patterns, which i made with the pencil and brush tools. as for typography, it's my usual layering style. the half-relevant phrases are pretty broken up this time, so i'd be surprised if someone can piece everything together.
with hindsight, it seems like i'm following the lead set by my first dogs wall -- grayscale, patterns, manga vector, and text-as-art. :O everything is optimized for the 1920x1200 version but the others should be okay.
thank you to my fmn buddies.

I'm always a fan of simplistic walls and this wall is really classy. The gradients and patterns you used really give off a great effect. They've got that manga presence but a more serious tone as well. Great text placement as usual, though you're right, I have no idea how to piece them together. The poses you chose work well for the simplistic centered wall you have, and really balance with the rest of the black void. Nice work~ (~_~)

Well your work is always impressive, it's very Art Noir black and white are so classy and the fact that you vectored this from a manga scan is amazing I love the text and the angles as well as keeping the background black leaves the view more to focus on the center . Great work A+ and a fav

i love the simplicity of it all. sometimes walls with a lot of black makes it look really good. you did a great job! keep up the good work(:

I'm waiting for the day that you make a wall that is nothing BUT text. That day will be awesome, and at the rate that you're using text in your walls, it will happen soon xD
I don't find it too surprising that you chose to do a minimalistic wall right when you hit your motivational and inspirational limit. I'm not entirely fond of the background text fonts, placement, and density, but it does work. I do hope you find some inspiration, especially since that summer break is coming soon. Who knows? Maybe days of sitting at home bored will provide the right energy and time xD
Solid work irregardless. It's hard to wall when one hits the mental limit, and you managing to wall even so is very commendable. Good job ^^

Asaaaaaaaaaa! Dogs is luv! Although I usually don't dig minimalism I'm digging this one. And you've done a great job with the text, too.
4 years, 11 months ago
Minimalistic always rock! Plenty of space for desktop icons and always look cool and dark. :) Love the design of the wall, putting the characters in the middle sure makes it stand out. The phrases around the character more or less portrays the mood behind shown. Fantastic wall!
4 years, 11 months ago
wow! i love the dark background those text you used is nice! it describe what feeling the characters have here good job! i love it n_n

I dunno anything about this anime but the wall do catch my attention! It's simple but nostalgic and a beautiful. It's like those openings in Kingdom Hearts; words on the black backgrounds with some others blurred letters...
4 years, 11 months ago
YOU DID NOT TELL ANYONE DDDD: now my fandom has to join the queue. I like both versions actually, though your typography is something else altogether. You have to teach me how to do that O__O masses of text that just perfect the wall and don't look cheesy.
fav and tell us next time okay =3=

Such a simple wallpaper, yet it appeals to the eye so beautifully. I love the words you used and the dark colour. Nicely done, keep it up =3

Black and white walls ftw I like this, the whole idea.The vectoring is pretty good and adding the patterns is a + 2. Keep it up.

I've said it before but I'll say it again: you have a thing for good typography! There's nothing better than some good text art and patterns in one wall ;)

Nice wallpaper here. I like the two main characters in this wallpaper. To me just this two pictures seem to tell me a story.
The text infront of these two characters is really relavent and i like it. I also like all the text floating about in the wallpaper. Totally cool and classy.
Last but not least i like the simple black coloured background. Everything fits nicely with the black background.
Overall nice work ^^

Overall great black & white theme wall! double love for the widescreen versions! +fav!

The font seems a little...wide, but overall, the text effects are pretty cool. There's something about the text and the rectangular-ness of the two pictures that seems awkward, but I like the use of patterns. The atmosphere is there too, somehow, even if this is not a scenic piece!
