Submitting 'cause i'm bored and stuff :) And also because i wanna avoid studying for math, lol.
This is an old-ish wall; MT description is as follows
When i was making this, i couldn't stop thinking to myself "my GOD is this a busy wallpaper" but when i finished it and tried it out on my desktop it looked fabulous. Sometimes the artist is too close to stuff like this; and it's hard to see things in perspective. with that in mind, full view :)
Inspiration was simply the picture itself (http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/200312/ deserved the highlight, no?) and a bit from The Faint - Symptom Finger (lols emo) Honestly i didn't do much execpt for fill in the background around.
I've been webdesigning since i was about 11 (i'm 18 now, yeesh :3); and i remember one of the webdesingers i admired the most (Shana formely of sakura-saku.net if that rings a bell to anyone.) Used this image waaay back before ParaKiss or any of Yazawa's mangas were popular in a layout, and i absolutely loved it - the motion and expression Yazawa can create is truly amazing. Seeing the source image, years after the fact, i'm astonished by the graphical complexity of the scans - the layout i'd seen of it was basically just the line art (still gorgeous mind you); the numbers and stuff shocked me.
Spent aout 6 hours on it; with scarcely 14 layers. Beleive it or not, most of my grunge walls have under 20 layers. funny, eh? ^_~
This wall was made partially to call attention to the scan itself - there are far more skilled wallers than myself; and i'd like to see them tackle this scan, and see if any of them stack up to that layout long ago.
