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!

Hhhmmm...nice concept there...the
first thing that you should do is clean up the scan....because
it's so blurry...or vector it so it would be look nicer...
then fixed some little on the BG...then for the text...
find another one...it doesn't suit to the scan...hope this help you...
good luck!!

I like it and disagree on the text being wrong i think it suits the show good pick. as for what i think could be imporved a little is maybe some how adding a person from the show mecha is just so dull to me with out the people. but its just an idea. i really do thinks its great.

Definatly vector it. Then maybe get rid of the black bars at the top and bottom, they kinda clash. And possibly get rid of the lens flare when you vector it.

I went back through it and cleaned it up, dropped the bar off the top. It's less busy now, and thanks for pointers guys, I appreciate it!

IT is WAYYY too blurry and grainy and pixelated and filtered looking and enlarged looking..all of which are not very good looking..XP
looks like an enlarged screenshot..probably is.
anyways. if you are just beginning to wall, then it is important to choose a good scan, and read some tutorials on extraction and cleaning.

You might have seen these before but

here they are again.

C: good luck!

PS. post on forums so you get more papers, so you can afford the scans on AP
