The use of the muted colors and the dottone works well in this piece, I assume you used some artwork from the manga? Extremely good work, please keep it up :)

Hrm, a bit simple and not really enough action going on. The background doesn't fit with the character art. But not bad.

That's fantastic, fits in with the theme, gives a nice clear desktop and looks foreboding at the same time. Please keep up the good work! And thanks for the design breakdown, it's interesting :)

Not bad, but the stark contrast between the vector and the background stands out a little too much. Maybe putting some overlay focus would help. Otherwise good work!

Interesting use of the sprites from Spirited Away, but the concept is so simple i'm surprised that I haven't seen it before. Keep up the good work!

That's incredibly cool. I have a love of nice clean and clear desktops but I usually find they don't have enough detail. Yours balances perfectly. I really can't fault it. Please keep up the good work.

Pretty sweet, but can I please ask what you mean in this case as "re-cg'd it"?n what exactly did you do to the scan?

That is pretty damn cool, a good choice of subject and amusing to boot, probably the only way to improve this wall would be to make the background thoughts look more like a scribble pad.

Not bad, but maybe carrying across the texture from the scan that you didn't clean out would help, also using lines through all your foreground objects will help the merge. Oh and watch the pixellation on that top bang, that would annoy the hell out of me.

Nice end to a set, can't really say much but the textures do bring it out. Good Work!

This has turned out much like a back of a CD, thusly it's pretty cool, and you definately achieve'd the grunge feel. Good work!

wow, nice clean color and lines, however you should look at using blur effects as the corridor gets further away, a gradient just does not cut it. Please keep up the good work!

Wow, nice art and colors, they're brought out really well and so many stars is nice, but please drop the glow effect, it's very hard on the eyes and would cause strain if used daily.

I am sorry, but the vector of sagara does not look right, please follow through on one coloring technique through the whole image, it looks like a cat's breakfast. Also the mecha in the background just looks like one too many filters have been applied and when combined with the grey logos, it's too much. May i reccomend that you figure a way to rebalance the colors so the grey does not wash the whole picture out.

Please don't be discouraged, but at the very least be wary of mixing too many different techniques and color balance, I look forward to seeing more nice clean walls like this in the future.

a bit of yellow probably would have helped balance the wall a bit more, but to my eyes the windswept effect, while effective is not my cup of tea.

There's a wall for the love that should never speak it's name! Actually i'm impressed that you chose that moment for this wall, but it works so well. And thanks for the link to the tutorial, that may come in handy!

That's definatly an idea I hadn't seen thought of, and so much work has been put into the background, all those flaming petals! Love the shine through the gates and the flow is pretty good.

Intresting concept and I will admit that it suits the anime perfectly, but somewhere the execution is lacking and I don't know where, probably in the choice of font for the postcard. You should definately consider this idea again in the future, possibly for the other arcs of the show (france, monaco etc)

I most definately think that you have achieved the aim of making it look like a CD cover, good work!

Wow, I have never seen a better idea for that picture, hell I can almost hear some bloody 80's song in the background. But I will agree, while the texture'd version ads something to the wallpaper, I prefer the clean version.

please, keep up the good work ST~

Hey, more grey ed is always welcome! Good match with the background and ironically, ed being in the other world means hell probably would freeze over. I would just watch the metal effect on the text as having a fine font like that allows it to blend into the background a tad too much.

I can't really say much here except "wow". Most definately worth the extra work for complicated scenery.

It'll do, but some linework on the opposing side might help balance the paper.

Very cool background, but for some reason it doesn't seem to mesh with the forground, probably due to her pose. Then again matching the two can be very difficult. Love the ninjas in the background, please keep up the good work.
