Trick or Treat by °chanelqueen17 1 month 2 weeks ago

After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

Yep, I was messing around with Photoshop again... >_> And go deducted 100 papers for a foolish act of obscenity... Anyway, here's my 1st (in reality, second) attempt for my first wall. It's Bleach, feat. Hitsugaya Toshiro:

pixelization : Hitsugaya Toshiro

Any comments on how I can improve this? :O

Ok, i like the scan you have choosen, it's clean and nice. but the probleme here is not the scan it's the bg, the colour are nice, but you need to do more than using a filter over the whole area... and i think you should take away the snow and the other things over the chara.
leave the snow on the bg, but get ride everything else... good luck :)

Nice scan but don't like the bg too ^^
the scan should be more valorised. Here we focus on the background and not on the scan... hope you understand what i mean ;)

good luck !

Hhhmmm...I think you should removed those star,leaves and etc...
I think that will not suit to your background...and I think you just put
that just to fill the background...well...for me that doesn't work...hehe..
well...for yuor scan...it's quite good...nice...just work more on your background...
well...good luck on that wall!

The stained glass idea isnt working the edges of the stained glass are too blue and hurts my eyes, maybe you should choose more neutral colours

This wall looks kinda messy. It seems like you just filtered the bg and slapped some brushes on. Not saying it's a bad thing but it doesn't really seem to have a flow. i think it's just better if the mosaic filter thing was gone.

Forgive me if I have repeated what anyone else has said, because I haven't read the other comments XD The wallpaper seems quite crowed...I think it's the mosaic thing that's hurting my eyes e____e (Ok I read what Riza said XP) I agree with Riza, that it seems like you just filtered and used brushes of course I'm not saying that you did, just try harder and think of a good idea that goes well with the scan ^^ Take your time~!

The arrow things at the bottom of the wallpaper is disturbing XP I don't really like it much. Maybe replacing it with some sort of ice block thing since Hitsugaya is an ice ability person? The white boxes going over the text isn't a favourite either, maybe you could get rid of it? Maybe you could use a more interesting font? www.dafont.com has a wide range of fonts you could choose from! ^^

1. did you vector that? if you did, great job! if it's in the scan section, then you can use it, but if it's vectored by someone else and you didn't ask for permission, then that's considered ripping :/
2. the colors are nice, but like riza said...i don't see too much work was put into this much.
3. i think it'll be cool to go with the tech side of this wall.
4. get rid of some of those leaf brushes, they don't fit the icy cool colors at all.
5. good luck!

You dont need to worry about the leaves and snow flakes right now, i think all you need to do is concentrate on a background right now, remember a background has either depth or vector brushes (even vector brushes have depth), so decide wat you want, your current background is sort of just flat wall, you might want to make it a scene

kinda offtopic but:

it doenst always take lots of work to make a good wallpaper, it only takes creativity

Agreed with blu3, if you vectored that Hitsugaya it's fabulous.

I'll be frank with you because you seem like an intelligent person who isn't going to take offense to this: this wall hurts my eyes in so many ways. As a general, the shades of blue are too bright/intense and there's too MUCH of it. I would reccomend removing the honeycombed background altogether and doing something else entirely. Go wit hthe pop-art elements in this wall, and just brush around a bit. Remeber to keep the contrast down - if you want people to use your wall, they have to be able to stand looking at it first ;)

Yeah the eye-hurting factor. but also something to keep in mind is dont have too much stuff over the character, that might get messy and such.
to clear up. what i mean by tech side of the wall is the box and the text..i like that :)

Hmm... got it. Remove the filter, go with non-contrasting colors.

I was thinking how ugly the font looked as well. Should I got for pop-style or classical script? =/

Haha! I might have to change it, but not the box text, since I'm aiming for a more modern layout now. Square, yeah, you can play around with them alot.

But then again, I hope it won't turn out too square... >_<;;
