This wallpaper gives us a perfect example of how a simple manga scan can be turned into a beautiful vector. Not only did danalm trace the lineart, but he also added amazing details and a simple, yet wonderful background. Furthermore, the wallpaper shows us how the monochromatic style can make your work look really interesting.

Alright, I made this wallpaper after watching the movie... love it by the way... and anything (at all) that you think needs to be changed, or something that doesn't look good, pls, bash away =P.

The wall was made to kindof resemble Lain behind a window (I used a window texture for inbetween the black lines, and put a blue mask over it, It kind of looks like she's crying, and her hand has water on it too =P but that's actually just the window), with a few close ups of her to fill space, and the logo on the middle left (I think I might move that).

The Link:

Thanks in Advanced for any critique!

The wall itself is really good...but some of the colors seem to be off. Like you jumped from one to the next without giving them time to blend... I think that's your main problem, but disregarding that, it's very nice.

I like it
but I think if you made the colors more bleak it would match the whole Lain feel even better

maybe play around with the background to make it overlay another image or something

Thanks for your replies, hows, this?

I put the three close-ups behind the blue fill layer and the window.
I also thought about taking away the blue, which would make the whole wall more of a gray color... well anyway, tell me what you think =D.

LOL, OK, the first thing you might want to correct is the resolution. Totally wrong for a wallpaper. 860 x 752? After resizing it (remember, 1024 x 768 is minimum requirement for AP) you might end up cutting out the last row of the window.

To the techniques, I guess the concept is pretty good but in your latest version I find that her face is now too saturated, looking a bit too red. I see that you also added the texture to the window frame. Right now, the window frame is looking too 3D, you should alter it so that it suits the Lain style a bit more, at the very least a bit more anime-ish.

Lol, I don't know what happened to the resolution =P, it supposed to be 1600x1400, but obviously something happened, thanks for noticing that though =D.

Thnx for the input, I'll make sure to play around with the coloring (and frame) a bit more when I get home, I'll post my next version tomorrow. Any more thoughts would be appreciated =D.

Thanks again, ~Utilael~

Then to my I liked much, single that the suitable measurement would be 1024 768 n_n' perhaps and your company/signature would put more small n.n single that...


Sorry! by my English I am Spanish: P

Alright, I took off the weird border and took off the blue fill and gave the glass texture a glass distortion, and did the same with the background Lain, I kind of thought it made you feel like you needed to wear glasses (espcially when I looked at if from far away) but tell me what you think =D. Distortion or no?

BTW, theres alot of white that suddenly shows up when I do the distortion... ignore that, because I plan on changing it so you don't see that =PPP... unless you like it, then say so pls =). And its still in a weird res when I upload it, but don't worry, it won't be when I post it here.
