What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 1 week 5 days ago

^nat
Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!

Lol, i made this such a long time ago that the thread has been locked ;P i would say that it had quite the overhaul. changed the bg and i had to re-extract the image (back when i made this i didn't know about saving it as something besides jpeg, so dumb...). the wall is full enough that i decided to have no text.

here's the original:

Hi
I prefer a lot the 2nd version you made
Just one things seems out of place : the orange-ish exploding planet doesn't fit imo with the colors scheme you used for the bg
I think you should also modify the greenish planet color a bit to fit a bit more the bg
Then the branch before the characters looks a bit weird ... try to change the brush or make them a bit smoother maybe it'll be ok
As for your scan it seems to need a bit more cleaning .. especially the character on the right ... maybe it is just me but the scan quality seems low .. I suggest you then to vectorize your scan
Also the scan seems too bright ... the girls are on a night scene with a big purple moon but the light color on them is very bright and white
I hope that helps and that was not some silly comment because you helped me so much with the walls i posted here :p

I agree with elfe about the orange ball - its really out of place. You did a nice job with the sky and trees, though. Maybe a flying spaceship leaving a phazon trail in the night sky would help bring this all together. x)

There's a bit of unextracted stuff at some place...i think between her hand and her sleeve on the left there.
i agree with a little spaceship, shooting star...whatever at that space there on the right next to the moon. because it's just a tiny bit empty
something about the scans look weird
i don't think it's the lighting very much...maybe it's the skin color?
are the purple things...like purple fireflies...or just ..stuff?
i don't mean that they look bad or anything but just wondering^^'
C:looks nice

I find it amusing that when you look at your wall in photoshop everything looks good (ie. extraction, lighting) but when i open up the link i've posted here i can totally see mistakes. odd... ;P

i'll go over the edges of the scan alittle more, i can see some minor extraction issues. i think i'll get rid of the purple dots. lol, i was trying to give it an aethereal feel but they just look like dots ;) and i'll lower the lighting on them just a tad.

"I hope that helps and that was not some silly comment because you helped me so much with the walls i posted here :p " i didn't think your comments were silly. never think that. now, if you made horrible wps (which you don't ;P) then i might not take all your comments under advisement (sp?).

that's too bad you guys don't like the orange planet :*( it was my favorite one. how about if i don't make it so bright? i'll try and make a spaceship (laughs at self before even trying... ;P) but where would it go? there's not alot of room on the wall. kinda going around the purple planet?

thx for the comments guys, always helpful :)

Save as bmp, more space but more quality much more I think anyways. as for the scans did you increase their size they look pixled? :P

I know it's odd. i decreased their size not increased. why did it get all pixelated? i even try to do it gradually, i heard somewhere in one of the posts here that it helps. maybe i need to do it more gradual. of course there's always vectoring but i'm not sure if i'm in the mood for that ;P

So, i figured out what was the matter with the scan. originally (when i didn't know anything...literaly) i had colored it wrong and basically made a mess of it. i accidently extracted that one, so i found the original scan and re-extracted it. i changed the position of the planets, sorry, but i didn't change the color. i like it too much the way they are ;P

lol, the spaceship is from the series. i found it another scan in the gallery. does it look odd? i'm 50/50 on it.

well, here it is:

Much better, in a way.
lol the spaceship kinda loooks out of place because it looks kinda too cartoony
and not animelike^^'
maybe modify it somehow
darken it a little?
darken up the tail a little bit too.
i don't know if you can clean up the tree part that's right infront of the white part of the "planet" because it looks a little blurry

I think the character opacity.. or you make it like that? it's too dark.

I like it background

I think it's to dark!
Make it brighter! The Background is good! Keep it!
But I think you should clean up the trees on the planet! It make the wallpaper looks weird!
