Wow. I think this is the longst I've ever spent on a wallpaper. Mostly because the coloring from the original black and white manga scan took forever to get all the details.

I'm not a fan of text on any wallpaper, but this one, I tried brushes there because I knew I wanted something there. In the end, I tried text for a few seconds just to see how it would look, and I loved how it complimented it better than any brush had.

Made in Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. The original manga scan was never resized, it was scanned the perfect size. Though it was cleaned up a little, mostly because I didn't like all the white specks on the gun barrel. Done with just layers and the default Photoshop brush list. Except the chain, that I used a Default Photoshop pattern for, and I'm overall rather happy with the effect it created.

It's graced my own desktop for a while now, and I still don't want to change it. (Oh. My. God. She changed her Rent desktop!) I'm very proud of how it turned out.

Comment. Critique. Enjoy.
