Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!
I decided to upload my walls here again.
blame blaze for having to see my crap here again.
i'm lazy...so this one is a copy/paste job from MT. hooray.
Yet another quick wallpaper from me.
why all the quickies? i'm doing some experimentation with a few things and they tend to just be walls with simple plans for backgrounds, so they go by quick.
I loved this image by Range Murata. it's so powerful. Out of all my quick walls, i think i like this one the best. This and maybe my loveless wall, but in 2 totally different ways.
anyways, i basically extracted the image, and did a lot of stock work and texture work. the wall itself was about...
extraction: 10 minutes
background: 20 minutes
text: 5 minutes
sooo, a 35 minute wall. but since people tend to like my quickies, i usually upload em. they have a simple complexity that my way more complex walls lack. so i guess each is appealing in it's own way.
so anyways, another quicky wall. don't worry, i have a wall that'll be taking me some time in the works :3
any kind of criticism is more than appreciated. i'm curious to see what you think of my experimentation (but i'm not revealing what it is caus ethen you may focus on it xD)
(end copy/paste)
i'm aware of how simple it is, and how lame it can be. but...what was experimenting with was a success :3
so there. HA xD
love it. hate it. whatever keeps you quiet xD
It's really a fantastic wallpaper - I'd use it, except that the scan really creeps me out... he looks like Adrian Broady, I think. O_o Oh well; the only flaws I see with the wall are not your fault. Great job!
Ooh...I've seen this one a while ago, thought you wouldn't upload it to AP =P Anywya, I'll also take this opportunity to wish you luck on the next round of DERKA >=D Now you get to suffer the sleepless nights of walling xDDDD bleh...
this is indeed a weird wall, certainly not one of your best, but good nevertheless. I have no clue what you were trying to experiment, but I love how the clouds played effects in your wall. In some way, this reminds me of my recent Bleach wall +_+ Other than that, great job =D

That's what I said a month ago when I saw it on pixelated graffiti >_<
About comments though, very simple but stylish way to wall, always good stuff from Kalico, love your work the texture and color moods are used nicely.

My God, isnt this from anime a all O.o!Ok, I'm still downloading blue submarine No.6 but this wall is fantastic !
Positive:
+ Aggressively real, assembling an old photo.
+ You have the "old photo" having scratches on one side only. It is rare, but possbile (and it is unique that way
+ One of the smallest "wallpaper by..." I've seen ^^
Negative:
+ Why the layer of clouds?
+ The character stands out noticable between point 310,670 and 320,790
+ The wall's title looks too new
Suggestion:
+ None (Yes! it is THAT good. hope you get highlighted soon!)

Oh I am in Love with Range's Murata artwork so it's a plus to see any of his images used. I really love everything about this, mostly the clouds, there's just the issue of the clouds being overlayed on the guy's image that's weird to me but other than that it's an awesome job!
