What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 3 weeks 21 hours ago

Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!

Okay. This is going to be my third attempt. My other two were rejected. I have no bad feelings about this one, so perhaps that's a good sign. I'm putting it here first, of course, because I really don't need a three rejections in a row. This is my first vectored wallpaper also. Well, here 'tis:

Character: Fai D. Flowright
Anime/Manga: Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
Title: Fai's Smile

Inspired by what Mokona said to Fai in Chapitre 43 (vol. 7).

Original scan from Clow Legacy.

1024x768
1600x1200

(other resolutions will be available once it gets accepted)

t3h UPDATES!!

Okay, after all of the great advice you gave me, this is what I have done: 1152x864

I put Mokona in there this time! ^*^

Critique away! (Or if you think it's good enough to submit, say so as well.)

Well, I gotta go to work. Bye bye!

I think it's a good idea but the bg is too plain, there's lot of black ...
May be doing something more ...
Good luck.

Hmm.. I like the idea, but maybe not with the vibrant blue. How about grey? Or if you still wanted Fai to kinda 'pop' out of the background like he does now, try something vibrant but not eye-burning. Like.. red? I don't know, try and see what happens, I guess.

There is too much black. Maybe try to put in some colors like the red in the original scan, for example the thin red line that shows throught his clothing. Also i think that the cape looks weird at the bottom left... this is where I think that the red line will help out. I really like the blue background surrounding the character it make him stand out, but maybe do something with the black background around the blue.

I remember that episode..mokona's so cute...But I don't really get what he said..'No one will balme you' 'bout what?...^^'

but anyways, 'bout your wall, I think your idea's great..just have to fix some things:
bg: like they said, it's kinda plain..and I don't erally think blue-green fits it..maybe make it into a more vibrant blue..which kinda glows to add that wow feel to it..Then the black bg, maybe play with some colors, brushes, and other elements..Kinda make it abstract or simple..
Fai: Notice that the edges are blurry. And the colors superimpose each other...Make the lines more accurate , and the colors too..

Y'know, the design of Fai's clothes are beautiful in the original scan..maybe add them on your wall..
Hope I helped a bit..^^

Just adding my two cents, you have to make the text more visible if you're going to keep it. i didn't even notice it until the second time i looked. try making the size a bit bigger, or putting more distance between the text and the border around fye so that it doesn't look like it's part of it. and yeah, maybe the blue-greenish color is not the best choice. it's very visible against black, but it's not very pretty. what you might want to try is instead of pure black for the background, you can make it a really dark shade of gray, like charcoal. not quite black, but close. that way, you have a bigger range of colors you can match with it. pastels look good with charcoal, for instance. (weh, i sound like an interior decorator -_-) anyway, good luck with it. it's a good start, and i think it'll turn out well with a bit of work ^_^
