This is my second shot at vectoring. this time I used shape-layers technique.
My first try can be found here → http://www.animepaper.net/forums/Session-Zero/19726/
Started working on this last Sunday, February 19th. Finished today, February 25.
I am planning to submit this as my very first wall to AP. (I didn't submit my first vector -_-) correct me for any mistakes that I may learn from them.
Final:

Final:
Pretty good vectoring job; I just spotted a little glitch - where the lines of the left eyelid go under the hair, there seems to be a couple of spots of black showing through the hair. Looks like you intended for it to be purple where it's under the hair, though.
I don't really like the red crystal thingy, it's too realistic compared to the vector, imho. I think the white circles of light should also be done like the red ones, like orbits of the crystal. Otherwise they just look like rings of light in front of the crystal, not around it.
Also, I find that where the butterflies in the background and the rings of light meet, it looks a bit strange, you get this green splotch in the circle. Just move the butterfles to make sure none are under the circles.
Last thing - the wall isn't the right size. See the guide for the list of accepted resolutions.
Good luck!

Sorry, but the crystal has to be white. It's the best imitation I can make of a 'rosa mystica'
*possible spoilers*
Can anybody make me a better one that would go well with the image? Your name will be included in the sig. ^_^;
about the butterflies, it's part of the background image. -_-;;; the light-rings are a little transparent, that's why the butterfly seems to be on top of the ring.
I already know about the size. I just left it at 1200 x 900 for bigger viewing. it can easily be resized to 1024 x 768 because of the ratio.
as for the eyes and the hair crossing each other, that can be fixed.
Thanks.

If you had to render it, you really have room to improve on that. The wallpapere on a whole seems too simple. Just the stock image taking up most of the wall, with a few effects. I'd advise doing a more complex background, and maybe adding a little text.
DivineLegend. I'd advise doing a more complex background, and maybe adding a little text.
easier said. ^^) I suck at graphics. All I know is vectoring. ...unless of course I vector a BG. ^^?
It looks pretty good so far Solwy, I realy liked the scan of Bara-suisho, and so far I think you've been doing a pretty nice job with the rosa mystica.
On a previous comment note, a more complexed background isn't the most important thing, specialy when the scan and vector take out most of the wallpaper already, still you should continue to see if you can improve it.
Either way it looks pretty good so far, so good that I in fact downloaded it already :P
Good luck on making the final version, surely it will be acepted in AP.
Kind Regards.

hi solwy, glad to met you here too.
maybe you can try brighten (not too bright) the background then give it few effect to make it more eyecatching . well, you can vector the background the laser beam and butterfly, you can find brush for the fire effect but i find that vector bg may take too much time ^^;

It's hajimemashite all over again. ^^) first time meeting you at AP ^_^

yeah, I know. I don't feel like working on this anymore. >_<
If everything is said, I'll just add the minor corrections and submit it. =)
lastly, thanks Ayanami-Rei for the comment. it made me smile. =D
My bad on the crystal, since I haven't watched the series and didn't know what it was supposed to be. Looking at the two screencaps, I still think that the white rings would look nicer if you made them like orbits - like the second screencap, the one on the right - I think that looks quite pretty. Also, it's a close up view with her holding it, so it's a contextually more accurate choice of screencap to follow.
I don't agree with what DivineLegend had to say; I don't think there's anything wrong with the vector (it's not a stock image!) taking up the whole wall, it's just a matter of your design, you just have to make it work well.
Genobee has a point about the background, it is unnaturally dark relative to the rest of the wall. Given how brightly lit whats-her-name is, she's not only being lit by the crystal, so her surroundings need to be brighter. I can barely see the lines & butterflies unless I crank my monitor brightness and contrast all the way up.
Don't give up, all this wall really needs is some tweaking. Ganbatte!

I prefer the one on the right, with the glint on the crystal. Good work, look forward to seeing this in the gallery! ^^
I agree too with hamy, me choose one on the right.
and good luck solwy *('o')* hope they accept yours

Yep! The one on the right! xD Good luck!
I would say as well, the right one overall just looks a hundred more times more appealing, the feeling it gives off is just extraordinary, and I must say you make Barasuishou far better than expected.
Great work. I hope to see you submit into the galleries now.
