First Vector + Wall
There're 2 vector that I made. Please full view it
I'm such a noob and newbie, so I know that there're lots of things to fix. Please critize me and tell me what I should do to improve my skill
Spoiler below contain vector and the old concept of my wall which I'm going to change.SPOILER (click to view)
EDIT
I'll definitely change my wall but since I'm really lack of skill in making background, I'll need lots of help. I'll do the wall step by step, making some part and then continue the other part.
I make an overall look of the background I want to make.

I know, it looks really bad and I need help on it. I personally think that everything just won't blend in there, but I have no idea how to blend it. The table looks too real and I'm not so sure about the lamp... Please give me advices on how to fix it...
I'll add some other things like the photo frame or windows later, after I finish this one.
Thank you very much for taking your time to check out my thread
Warm Regards, Yuki

but composition is not working.. I personally dislike repetition of same character..
.. wait for other advice..
As for the wall, the wall as it is currently, looks very weird. I mean, seeing that double face looks strange. I think you must change concept a bit. The reflection thing in the rose looks unnatural and weird.
I think you should get rid of the rose for now. Or atleast place it in a different way.
And as for your stated concept. Well, i like that. But it would be better if you could show some heavy and stormy rain outside of the window. The glass of the frame could be broken. Some petals of the rose detached from the flower. Scattered....
How about a sad sort of note on the table too? You know, like a goodbye note kinda thing...
Lighting on the table would be required.
So, basically, a table, with a note on it, the photo frame having this particular char in it, but it's glass is broken, the rose, with scattered petals, heavy shower and stormy weather in sight from the window.
If you could work that out, i think it could look nice. But i hope i am not confusing you!
Thats what i think about it for now. Looking towards the updated version...
Warmest regards,
The Firestorm

@ C : Some people told me that they don't like that repetition, so I'll definitely change the wall, besides, It does look weird, haha
@ Fire : I get what you mean and I could picture it in my head. Really nice concept! But that sure's really hard for me to do...

It means I must fully vector the flower, right?
Let see, I really need help about the technical things for the bg.
1. I could make the table using vector, right?? Then what about those fiber things on the table (so it just don't look plain)?? Could I use texture ?
2. Should I also vector the note, window, and broken glass on the frame?? Or could I do it with other way??
3. I believe I could use brushes for the petals and rain, right?
4. About the lighting.. Should I make a lamp or something? Anybody knows how to make a good lighting effect??
I'm so sorry for these questions, but I'm really bad at making bg....
Thank you very much
Regards, Yuki

Texture is also good touch for the table
you could vector them.. just to preserve the entire feel of the wall and not some sort of collage of different styles in the bg
You COULD, there are some tutorials for making good rain effect... you should check out the group, Ohayou's "Tutorial List" ... there is a rain tutorial effect there somewhere.. and also "Brush Stock" for some brushes..
..someone else could fill you in in the lighting part..
As for the wall..yup it totally looks weird (eek) I think the rose is a busybody xD
Yup it's hard to make bg..and texture is a good way..Ahhh I just have an idea of a wall in my head..bye now!
^o^
Sincerely,
ELLY
ps - I'm just following you with the warm regards thingy
:let's see your wallpaper then...
the wallpaper didn't organize well...
-don't put saya again at the rose.. if you can, try to vector all the rose...
-the text still not good, make it smoother will solve the problem.
if you do it all what i said, this wall is 99% enter the gallery, (80% because you use vector)..
okay, now with your idea...
yuki, if you want to make some photoframe... i suggest you use a different image.. cause this picture will look weird if became a photo.
try to find image that contain Haji too...that's only my "not very useful" opinion
if you want some wood texture for the table... here
the result are just like the floor at my saber wall...
i don't know anything about brush... so i don't know it can make it better or not...
it will be better if all component are made by vector...don't worry, it's more easier than vector a scan.
for the lighting, vector lamp shape (no need too detail i guess)... and use lens flare.. or use lighting brush.
if you confuse with my comment, it's normal..
cause....i even don't understand what i'm saying.....
Your vector is AWOSOME n_n
You did an amazing job in the vector BUT i've something that i want to tell you , is that the other small picture in the flower maybe you should find another picture different from the original pic .. I mean maybe if you find a male picture and put it instead of the same girl i think it'll look better cuz two pisture (( the same )) in the same wall it's not a good idea .. sorry u_u"
oh yeah and why don't you try to use a texture on it :D
I hope it's helps n_n
Goodluck!
And put a small face there,at first,may be good idea,but then I think it is a bit distracting.The glow is kinda ruined the mood too.And plus the sig with the red color stand out too much,which is not good.
That's all for now,if I can think if anything else,I will come back later

I'll work on it and post the renewed one (but it'll take pretty much time though, I'm pretty slow...
)
Great thanks to all,
Yuki ^^
But I have to second everyone's opinion about the rose and double image. I can't really give you more advise than what has been already given by everybody else. Although you could make the vector blend a little more, like duplicating the image, give it a slight gaussian blur and then multiply it over the original... or something like that, I use PSP9 so I don't know what goes for what in photoshop. A bg with a table besides a window sounds like good idea, maybe with sunshine shining through the window or something like that
Lol, I'm not much help as I'm still a noob myself
Like what the others just said I am not really comfortable of the concept of repetition of the character but I have an idea. How about putting Hadji's face their at the flower? I mean he gave the rose right, that was the concept that popped up in my mind when I saw the rose.^^
I hope this helps Yuki!^^
GAMBATENE!!
