As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!
I'm glad it got accepted and I really like the colors and the grungy-ness but like I said in Session Zero, when you make wallpapers, you have to make them bigger because people rarely use 1024x768 resolution today and with my resolution I can't use this as a desktop wallpaper.
So, next time, make your walls bigger. Other than that, nice job and keep it up! :)
I like the colors, they have a gritty texture to them as if from an older film/ movie. Personally the wallaper is too busy in the background, but that is my two cents.
Is the only reason this got rated low is because of size?
It seems it's better than a C+, but many people are mentioning the size as a disappointment.
I too, prefer a larger size, but shouldn't the quality be judged independent of the size?
Either that or stop accepting anything below some 'cut-off'. Maybe accept it as 'art', but not as a wall? Just some ideas because I thought this was artistically pretty good, but I would have a hard time using this size as a wall. Just seems the size issue should be separate from the grading -- either that or new policy to disallow smaller ones as walls...?
Thanks very much everyone! It's not the first wall I ever made, I've been making wallpapers for years now, but I only post them on my Sheezyart. I tried to add wallpapers years ago too, but I was not good enough at the time. So I figured I could try again now. I'm glad I did. I'l surely add more wallpapers now.
I used to have a 1024x768 sized laptop. I have a 1280x800 one now. So from now on I'll just upload my newer wallpapers since they are 1024x768 too. Thanks for the comments!

I did not draw the picture, I got it from planetrenders.net, I only made a wallpaper with it!
Feel free to use as desktop wallpaper, but please don't steal it, edit it or repost it elsewhere.

got you a fav from me for you to keep the good work !! ^^

Woah I really like this, The colour surpisingly go well together. Great Job you made it look calm but dangerous just like the anime.
I just love how the render fuses with the BG, like alenas said you should make them with bigger resolution and they are going to be perfect.
Cheers...
