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!
This wall was made to express my love of the autumn season by combining warm, fiery colors and a nice scan of Naruto. The picture of Naruto plays a pivotal part in the wallpaper because it's a rare picture of him with a serious expression (Introspective Naruto) - the overall goal of this wallpaper was to show Naruto almost lost in thought while staring at the unrivaled beauty of the trees in autumn.
This wallpaper took me about three hours to make because I was really indecisive about how bold the colors should be. The background and the extraction of the stock didn't take long at all, but I played around with color balance layers in Photoshop for what seemed like an hour before I settled on that current color scheme that you see now =]
The colors are wonderful and i really love the leaves! the trees look great as well and this wall has a lot of feeling to it! it's really great! keep up the great work! fave+

Wow, this is really cool. i love the combo of naruto and the season. its really fitting.
i like the layers of trees too, how they fade into orange. really cool
I'm sick and tierd of the filler episodes of Naruto and can't wait till it's back to following the manga; so this will help keep my mind off that. Nice work on the wall, a little bright for my liking but nice all the same.
Very nice wallpaper. I especially like the orange hue you use for the background juxtaposed to Naruto's orange clothing. I also very much like the silohuette style of the tree that you use. One thing that I might not have added, though, are the loose leaves floating around Naruto. While they do add to the "autumn" feel, they seem exceedingly large compared to the trees in the distance. If you keep the leaves, maybe make them smaller so it looks like they are more on the same plane as the trees?
Amazing, good use of brushes! A less opaque brush for certain leaves would have been better but it is still top notch!! Nice use of the Crystallize effect. This is an A+ wall, my fave!!
I love the effect with the trees. It gives contrast and a sense of distance. Naruto's expression and pose deplicts the scenery very well and it shows a totally different side of him which is a nice change
Errm...anyway, about the wall ^^;...the simple autumn background fits very well and I just love the warm yellow-orangy colors. I also like the slight lighting behind the trees and how the trees have different shades. Very nice scenery and Naruto fits right in with his determined look. Great job ^^
Simple yet a beautiful wallpaper . . . i like the autumn feeling i get from this wall . . . the trees was an excellent idea although in the thumbnail looks a little odd . . . i like the colors and the image of Naruto very much too . . . you have done an excellent job Thank you very much for sharing it. :D
