Yeah! Done another wallpaper once again! Finally was able to find time to do it with the help of some friends! Made this wallpaper for Valentine's Day! So please full view it!
Ok~ I had loads of problem when doing this wallpaper. Firstly, I wanted to do a high resolution wallpaper for this at 1600x1200, but sadly, when I was doing it halfway, my hard drive didn't have enough space to run anymore and thus it hang there. So I had to redo it once again but at a lower resolution and decided to revert to the usual 1024x768. Now to the wallpaper.
Used this scan of Kotori from the magazine scan that I posted some time back.

With some help from embershadow, she helped me merge the 2 scans together and vector it. I have to say, she really did a job well done for it.

Next up, I did the sky and added some stars and a huge moon on top. Did some bright effects to make it look nice. Then I did the snow on the ground which was quite tough for me.
Then for the first time, I did my own tree! Yeah! It didn't turn out well actually but after some help and pointers from Leena and SumpfFuch, I managed to blend it in. Also added snow in the tree to have the effect of snow falling on it!
Then drew a bench for Kotori to sit on and lastly, the snow! First time doing it also. At first I find it weird with the snow all over the place, but somehow managed to balance it. It doesn't look right the first time but I redid it and made it more fluffy liked, at the same time, not making it look like rain! Also added a slight glow to the snow to look nice.
Ok~ I also added trees at the background so that it doesn't feel empty. Also added some snowflakes to contrast.
Actually, I made it look like this because it reminds me of Kotori in the OP of DCSS. =)
Once again, I would like to thank embershadow, Leena and SumpfFuch for giving me pointers! Hope you guys love it and do add to favourites if you do!
