Well then, rather just simply saying that critic it... seriously. If one is gonna try saying that something is done badly or similar, one should be prepared to point out things that can be improved. The lighting does effect the grass, just not as much, and now that i look at it, the tips should be a bit lighter.

one question. Why is she on a path that's... well quite long in her school uniform? Also. Background doesn't look like it was made yourself. Lacks depth perception. The fog makes it look like a cold day, yet she clearly isn't dressed for it. Now that I think about it. The background doesn't look right at all. It looks sunny, but there's fog. Then it should be either a hotspring area or up high, yet the ocean/lake disagrees with that. The rest of the space is just begging to be used, as it looks like.. well just a background with a vector overtop, a little here and there but nothing else in the foreground

She doesn't blend with the background well. She looks out of place, as.. well the environment has fog, but there are no traces of anything on her, as if for her it was just another sunny day walking to school. It's not hard to tell that she's out of place cause the art style of Kokoro Connect and whoever made the background don't mix very well. I haven't watched Kokoro Connect but I would assume that there's a lot less blue in day scenes except for a couple Christmas episodes too.

TBH I've been looking at a lot of your wallpapers cause you throw out so many, but so many of them are mediocre just because it seems as though you don't take the time to revise. Of course, my assumptions might be wrong, but I'm just saying what I'm seeing

Beautiful. The simple yet complex look is great. The gradient makes it look not too plain, The only complaints i have is that the color seems a bit too saturated and I'm not liking the background texture, as without the texture the wallpaper would look more clean overall, but still amazingly done

The background is quite boring, and the character placement honestly bothers me. In my opinion, it would look better if you could see more of the character, and some dynamic background to make the character pop out more, cause frankly... this wallpaper is pretty bland. It's one thing to be simple and clean, but it's another to have something that's simple and boring.

Now it looks too bland. The colors don't contrast enough in the background. Again you're not making it look intense. When i first glanced at this i thought it was just a vector on a blank background. you need to give it the feeling of like... -BOOM- to make it be "in all her glory". If it was her just standing it would've been fine, but since this is an action pose it should have some umph to it, like more contrast in the background and proper lighting. Some parts of her hair look odd, because of the way the background creeps into the foreground, yet the different shades are not visible in the background. The first revision made Asuna pop out more because the contrast.. is well... the opposite of blending, which in my opinion looks better.

It's too simple. No lighting is used to add to the "glory" The colors don't match her close enough for it to blend well. The SAO logo pops out too much, but it's also very small. Basically would be better to remove it in total.

This image isn't suited for this kind of background in the long run. It would be better to use it for a fractal or grunge background, which would showcase the intensity of battle better.

Looks really cool.

Very clean looking which is something I'm a huuuuggee fan of. Will you be releasing a textless version at some point because a lot of people have icons on their desktop and they'll cover up bits of the wallpaper, making it not look as nice when on an actual screen.

Oh god she looks pissed Pretty well done, but I would like to see one with the right side of her completed and/or the lower portion of her body as well, because having edges cut off it just the worst thing to deal with. Some of the shading looks a bit too dark. Also there's only one vector on AP where Saber has her armor.. i think?

This is a great concept, but There are a couple things That look a bit out of place. Yozora looks like she's looking at something directly behind her, yet Asuna is ready to fight. Asuna's facial expression also looks.. content? yet Yozora looks aggravated. Same goes for the other side (Vol, 2) Kirito looks happy-sih yet Sena looks bothered by something.
I also think the Haganai character outfits look a bit too flashy compared to the SAO characters... which is something that you unfortunately cannot change unless if you spend quite a bit of time on it I would assume.

It's a good concept. It's lacking a couple of things though. The sky shouldn't be reflected perfectly by the water. Her legs shouldn't just disappear unless if the water is... well that dirty. Also, her standing in the water should make some ripples around her. The edge of the water doesn't look natural at all. Never once have I seen water meet land on a solid line... That and you can see that you put a pretty much solid black line to separate them. The quality of the hills and the sky aren't exactly great. I pulled them into a 1920x1200 and they look choppy. Not to mention if you are going to blur the background, parts further away should be blurred more, but in this case the hills are blurred the most and the sky isn't blurred at all. In terms of lighting. I don't think the background should be completely blue. Sora seems to have a bit of red, making it seem like the hills should have a bit of green (talking about natural colors of the objects)

You have too much going on in this. If i were going to pick out which Ichigo to keep, it would have to be the one on the left. Also I see you've used a render rather than a vector. Renders usually don't look as nice as vectors, and when you get to higher resolutions you'll want to switch over to mainly if not only using vectors for wallpapers. I also think the colors are altered a little much. Ichigo's skin color looks really close to his hair color (again talking about the Ichigo on the left) There's also a paper on the wall, smack dab in the middle. I think you should try getting rid of that if possible. If I were making this wall I would probably remove the two Ichigos on the right and add a bit more of that wall graffiti thing.

The lamp... looks like clip art. The shadow shouldn't be the same color as the lamp either. The shape of the building is messed up. The windows are really sloppy. The bench doesn't look like a bench. Most benches outdoors have metal bars with long pieces of wood connecting them, with gaps in between. Kotomi looks out of place. Considering her placement compared to the size of everything she's probably standing in the middle of the road. Also, the lighting on her looks slightly red/ yellow making it seem like she's wandering around during a sunset, but your background doesn't reflect that. The background has too much white as well. It looks almost like it's from a scene from the game Mirrors Edge.

It's okay, but the flowers / petals look really out of place, they look like as if lighting doesn't affect them at all.. well same goes for Saber as well. Pretty much what CrimsonCyanide said... Those are my issues with this wallpaper

haha, yeah what i did was i vectored out half of walpurgis from a screenshot

Yeah, it's a vector, link for it is in the description

The grass in the background is blurred because saber is the main focus of this wallpaper, not the grass. The grass in the foreground isnt as blurry because it's closer up.

As for the "black stains" they were supposed to be shadows of clouds. I'll try making them more dark blue-ish I guess, but i have looked through many images of sunsets and I tried mimicing them as good as I could, will still try to fix though

it looks a LOT better now. i think the lighting on rin should be a bit more luminous since she'll be closer to the light than the ground, so there shouldnt be as many dark areas on her, just another thought.

The bricks/blocks in the background are too small compared to the chalkboard. Beveling honestly doesn't look that good with anime. I think its better to add your own lighting/shadows onto it. The text on the chalkboard doesn't follow the perspective of the chalkboard itself. The backgrounds perspective looks a tad different as well. There is also no reasonable source of light, because you have to consider (im assuming its supposed to be a classroom) lightbulbs, windows (natural light) and the character itself if you're trying to make them pop out more.

The dullness of this wall makes it seem like she's in a prison or something

in contrast to the background, rin looks too... fake? well she just looks out of place is what i mean. it would look better if you probably added a larger variety of color to rin, or changed the bricks to have less detail, but then its possible that there might be a feeling of emptiness in the wall. if she's looking up at the tree, the placement of the tree shadow should be closer to her and larger. The colors dont blend that well at all. try changing the lighting color to a light orange or a dark/dull blue and use some blending modes to create a time whether it be day, night or sunset. i think this wold look best sunset

song?

Ah i understand. Originally i had a night sky that was purple+blue but after adding a bunch of contrast to make the lighting just pop more overall it got a lot darker, thanks for the comment. Will fix
