This is my half of the collab between me and redxxii of md.net
i say my half, because we both started a wall featuring one of the lovely ladies of eureka seven at the exact same time. we had no direction, and both just did whatever. after a couple of days, we were ready to trade off, and some adjustments were made and ideas brought to life.
they were switched back and forthe a few times.
to start, i reCGed the scan, and extracted it, and compiled a bunch of stock photos into what the background originally looked like (a bunch of stocks)
red then went and worked with them to smoothen it out and make it all flow together, and came up with the idea of outlining the stocks to give a handrawn look. a freakin AWESOME idea.
so, the wall came back to me, and me and my trusty tablet went to work, outlining like crazy. then, i did some more stock manipulation to add that "exploding" feel in the background. i added a cloudy, dusty have over a lof of the wall, and sent it back to red.
he made some adjustments and enhanced the effects, then added some text.
sent it back to me to adjust the text, and add some texture and a signature (mine is bette rthan his by the way)
then, we were ready to call it done.
this is my fav of the collabs i've done so far, because it was funny how the two walls are EAXCT opposites.
mine is very structered, and has a lot of architecture, blues, and even though it's destruction, is very serene with underlying grunge.
red's, is red, chatoc, grungy with architecture and structure as an underlying theme, and portrays the destructive nature as it occurs from the point it begins
well, we hope you enjoy the walls, because we love them and worked really hard on them :D
Awesome background. :D Just have to ask what that white stuff is on the left. x_X Must be in my favourites...xD I agree outlining the stock for the bg was an excellent idea, because it's...*speechless*
Oh...nice. the crap of of the crap xD~! this is great :O~! it has the grundgy feel :D~! although the left side is a bit weird with a plain blue sillhouette, but good for the icons :D~! great job kalico and red :D~!
It's the colors of the wall that i really like. The light and white color match the character's clothes. As for the rest of the background this wall really hit the spot.
Great job
She's very cute, i love the old type,kind a ruind city, it's very coool! i also like the color BLUE, and so i love your wall it's very fanatctik looking and her face looks like she never been in that place!!
well anyway i love it
<<<SMILE>>>
Oooh cool like this wall... i like it alot because of all the stuff you have done with it. The text fits in VERY well with the rest of the wall and stuff. Awesome job. good work.
Very nice I love the misty effect you used and the stone walls and rocks looks really outdone, you did an awsome job on this, keep up the great work! ^_^
Just a few observations, maybe the pile of debris in the center (just below the text) could also be slightly outlined as well to match the rest. You may want to add some shading to the pile that is outlined below the non-outlined pile, and maybe use a smaller sized brush to outline some more. The light source seems to be from the left, so maybe some shadows esp of her hand on the wall.. with diffuse lighting, I think a subtle shadow would be nice. I do like the mist and the graffiti on the wall which seems to say "lost sin"? The idea of outlining stock is a good one, makes the background blend well with the character. What does the Latin mean this time? XD And msg me! I have a christmas card waiting for ya!

Great job
But really, cool job and especially smart moves from you guys to outline the stock photo, 'cause it's a nice trick that worked really well.

For that is the defeat of one's body to one's heart and to us, it simply proves that the existence of our heart is an existence that is beyond our control.

I'm with Acidflower on this. Although, with me, it completely fucks up the wall.
