FullMetal Alchemist Wallpaper
This my first wallpaper. I did for the French Speaking People contest.
It is a FullMetal Alchemist wallpaper :
I took the scan from the gallery. It was grainy and I could not do much about it, since I have no experience in cleaning nor vectoring. I did my best anyway...
I've used some 15 layers and 4 brushes.
The title is in French and means "Where were you?"
Thanks in advance for helping me with your comments !! It is my first wallpaper ever made so please I'm ready to all criticism and advices !!

The foreground scan could do with being vectored. This would clean up the lines and make the wallpaper look much better overall. Other than that, there's not much more I can suggest. The background isn't to my taste, but I think it works anyway. Ganbatte!
Thanks !! The only problem that I have right now, is that I have no experience on vectoring...
Thanks anyway!If you have another idea for the background let me know, I don't mind reworking on it !
I'll my best for the scan too :)

The scan is a a bit grainy. You can try this clean tut: Click
If you want to know how to vector, you can look in the vectorness group for some tuts.
Good luck!

Update !!
Here is the wallpaper again !! this time I vectored the scan I was using (it is the first time I vectored something... it took me more than 5 or 6 hours!!)
For the background, I might be changing it but I still don't have any clue about what I could do else...
Comments please !

Looks good
In my personal opinion, the board with the text kinda bugs the wallpaper. The text is a bit too normal and it doesn't really jump out... It just feels like it doesn't belong there.

A very nice job on the vector, just excellent! I have to say though, I honestly don't care much for how the rest of it is looking though. The elements seem to be rather jumbled and they look unfinished. My suggestion would be to go in a different direction for the background completely. The font for the title is a nice choice I think. Personally, I think the direction I would go would be to lay the title flat, take out the rest of the background, do some nice horizontal line effects for a backdrop to the title across the screen, and use some nice sky scene that looks vast and beautiful. That way it would add to that "which way to go?" thing, seeing that vast expanse out in front of you. I also think that would go magnificently with that vectored image of yours. Another suggestion I'd have is to change the resolution to a widescreen format to add to the whole effect of it. You can always offer other resolutions for people (like me) who don't have wide scenes, but maybe then you'd have it with movie bars top & bottom to preserve the panoramic feel? That's worked really well for some other wall makers I've seen. Well, hope I helped some, and I wish you best of luck on your continued work ^_^
You did a nice job on the vector. I would suggest that you add something behind the fence like perhaps a house far back. Try experimenting with it. I do not like the sign also, it has to go. The text would look better whitout it. The wallpaper is a bit plain right now but it's a good idea and it can turn into something real nice if you keep working on it :)
Thanks for you comments !!
I'll try experimenting all of your suggestions !
Thanks for your support :)

Well I think you could make the letter from the fence look better, they are a litle rusted, and I think it would be better if it was like a sign at the fence
Keep the ideas flowing and make a good job ^^
