Oh my, colours! <3 Been wanting to make the simple kind of wall for a long time now...I was aiming for a simple mod background, so when I was half playing and experimenting on colour gradients and blending options I [strike]accidentally[/strike] made a background that I really liked. Then I decided to throw in Bamboo Blade characters in the wall because I've always wanted to make a wall for Bamboo Blade. I thought the series was awesome and it certainly deserves more lurve! ><
Vectored the silhouettes(yes, silhouettes yet again ) of the characters from the manga covers that can be found here . I was sorely tempted to use the full images instead of silhouettes because of the pretty art..but it really didn't go very well with the bg. Since Bamboo Blade has spunk in it, I decided to add colour circles to make it more lively and funky.

Some different versions that I made~
Lighter/softer version (not much difference actually):
Night Fun version:
I really liked this one too.
The original design without characters:

I used some random brushes found at deviantART.

Really cute wall. I enjoyed looking at your other versions, the night version is really retro! Nice work on the vectoring of the silhouettes. The colors are awesome and the whole colorful background/silhouette kinda theme brings good memories of my favorite itunes/coldplay commercial! hehe, nice work! .(n_n).

Silhoettes really was the best choice, the full image would not have gone well with the wonderful background you made ^^ It's nice to see such a fitting wallpaper for the Bamboo Blade girls, it really works well with all of their personalities (especially with keeping Tama-chan in front of the subdued blue panel). Great work.

Sweet! You're right, Bamboo Blade definitely needs more attention, and this wall has certainly grabbed mine! The background could have used some more tweaking, perhaps making those abstract shapes more meaningful. About the color scheme; it's good, though the green is contrasting too much! Anyway, I love the feel and overall design of the wallpaper - simply great! ;D

I like the colors and the placement and the shadows

i like the use of different colors against the simple gradient on the background and the blacked out people. The colors make the people standout while not being to over the top because of the gradient on your background.

I like this wallpaper, even though I've never read Bamboo Blade. It's really colorful and fun to look at. It gives a feeling of energy or excitement. I like it and it's also easy on the eyes. Thanks for the treat. +faves

nice colorful back ground... it really make the shadow pop out more.... I like it...

This is what I've been looking for! I like the way you've laid out their silhouettes. It would be cool if they each had their own assigned color from the anime (e.g. Tama-chan is Red, Kirino is yellow...). Bamboo Blade DOES need more attention. Such a good anime.

Something about this wall makes it flow together nicely, but also something doesn't seem right about it. Good wallpaper though. I think it might be the colored spots. I'm not so sure.

I always prefer full character instead mere silhouettes, even when they would be simpler vectors. The background design is interesting despite the simplicity, but maybe would be a good thing when the number of the characters and the colored blocks would match.
