I'm so glad this wallpaper turned out the way I liked it. It was tough to decide which anime to tie it up with (I had 3 choices) and I ended up choosing Samurai Champloo which had this funky-japanese-traditional theme going. Its was pretty easy to pull off with the BG.
I started with the usual, atmosphere/scenery setting. Then I divided in to 3 panels. The panel style I got from watching Honey and Clover, one of Hagu's works was divided in panels. The original BG is the middle part, then the sides are splashed in one color (which idea I got from this totally wicked wallpaper). The top middle part was hard to decide with. It just looked too plain without something. So I added that design just to make it more funky/girly-whatever. Added a few spatter for a semi-grungy (?) look.
I added Jin and Fuu's silhouettes as well. It won't be Samurai Champloo without them. ^__^
