Relaxation by °Tens 1 day 8 hours ago

As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

Ah, brushwork on scans don't look good most of the time. You might also want more work on extraction, because i see unextracted parts at hair and other places. Can't tell what it is,...but something on the right of the scan seems to be cut off.
grass is not half bad, maybe too blurred at front, probably getting rid of the leaves brush is the best. or atleast not so many

Wayyy too many leaves. And some of them are really big, almost bigger than the girl's head. Also, the leaves behind them seem to form a wall or something. Is that intended? If it is, ignore that. And why are they kinda...pink near their feet and/or knees? Is it part of the scan? I think this would look better if that pink was gone.

*looks at own post* I would congratulate you if you actuall understood any of that ^^;

I agree with yitian the pink doesnt really go with the picture and there are too many leaves especially infront of the yellow. also i think the yellow in the corner.. is a little to pure and doesnt fit right.. maybe change hue so is red/orangish?

Well, somewhat better^^
something that's very noticeable are the grass in the front that are really reallly jagged edges.
i still don't like the leaves much...howabout,.. adding like a treetrunk behind them instead?

Actually, you can try adding different treetrunks.and branches and then some leaves.
i don't know, is that too much for you? bushes will also do. like draw a brown stem and then put small brushes of leaves on it really puffy like?

After you have done all that, think of a good way to place your text. Maybe have it in the direction of the sunrays or something like that^^ ok?

C: i hope that wasn't too confusing~

I like that background, but the things you should get rid of are ghostly images of the scan, un needed opacity like on her hair, and motion blurs, and anything else that is just been placed on there without any reason in mind. Good job, love the background again.

I decreased the effects on the scan, now there is just an little blur - effect.
I also deleted (i hope) all of the brushes on the scan.
But i have no idea how to make tree trunks T___T

The scan it loks streched
and the background is quitte boring bacause it is too monotone.
maybe put sky will be better, or maybe put forest as BG

Ok after seeing so many wallpapers in one thread, I finally came to the latest wallpaper you edited, its a great idea IMO.

There is a green area above the grass, I would suggest using a differ colour for it, cause it looks like poor cleaning of a scan, I know its not, just looks like that. :D

Nothing else, everything else are just perfect for me.

Noooooooooo!! Don't change the background I loved it the way it was. It was so original and interesting. Not the usual sky/ground/tree crap, am tired of that. Plz go back to this one:

(Sorry to all those who used the sky/ground/tree on they wall)
