When I saw this scan, I just wanted to do something with it rigth away. Because the quality wasn't all that great, and it was kind hard to extract a picture from a red backround, I traced it (vectored if you will) in Photoshop. Longest darn vector I ever did, took me the week to complete...
I took so long on the vector, that I just didn't have any ideas for a backround. Some folks in session zero suggested that I should go in an abstract direction. Wich I did, or at least tried to do. I actually traced some tribal tattos I found on the Internet and blended them into the backround. I found some inspiration in some of the wallpapers here also. All in all, I'm rather proud of the messy yet stylish look I gave this wallpaper.
I hope some of you will like as well. :D
