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!
Yey after a decade thinking of walling one of Hayao Miyazaki's works (that's MR. Miyazaki to you ppl) >xD i chose totoro as my first coz he's cute and freaky at the same time :D and he has girls for friends lol tho that doesnt explain anything but being random is cool >.>
anyway yeah im gonna try and dodge some insane crits i would likely to receive
1. C: Birds only concentrated near totoro = A: coz he's totoro and birds like him >xD
2. C: NO TEXT = A: there is one look closely "CAT-BUS STOP"
3. C: Duplicated sootballs = A: SO? should there be blonde and redhead sootballs? xD
4. C: NOT MUCH DETAIL = A: umm that's coz i'm lazy >=D
thanks to Gideon for the idea :D, nuni, amai and yina for input, tho amai and yina saw the other 2 versions, and to blaze and boing for being creeps saying it needs more in its earlier stage >.> actually was finished then, but they said it's empty so i added stuff -_-
yey *sings* to to to to totoro to to to totoro >xD
EDIT:
someone said the sig was bright and big @_@ first time i got a comment on that lol..and gave the sign an outline
waaaaaa~! I am such a big Miyazaki fan! I've been following his films ever since and this wallpaper just clearly made me all giddy with excitement!! I like your choice of colors and the cat-bus stop sign... really nice touch. I'm loving it! The bare yellow sky is really cool and I wouldn't like to have it any other way. I like how the shot just took the tops of the houses... argh!! I'm loving this too much! Nicely done!! I hope you do more Miyazaki wallies!! I'll be looking forward to it!

This wallpaper has nice colours, nice composition, looks different and has an humorous look. I Like it, and I think it will actually work as wallpaper (some absolute masterpieces on this site look great as a pic, but won't nessecarily work as a wallpaper). ^^ ...don't know the series by the way
I like it, its nice and crisp. but some of the details are a bit too plain, and the totoro model doesnt really match the simplistic 'lineless' vectored background. but thats hardly noticable anyway, great job
Ahah this is completely awesome! Although I would have seen it better as a night rainy scenery, just like in the movie. :] For some reasons, Totoro seems to stand out a bit too much compared to the color scheme you choose. But hey it's Totoro sama so it's definitely a +fav. :D

Awe!.. it's such a CUTE scene! i love totoro!...
my only comment would be to either incorporate a little of the sky color ((like as a tint)) onto totoro... or since it's the cat bus stop, to have a possible morning shower ((not necessarily all dark and stormy)) but that would be a nice add on!
otherwise.. i love the simplicity of the wallpaper .. definately a faV!

WOW! one of my favorite wals of all time! thanks for an awesome work done! very clean, stylish, love the bus sign- it reminds me of studio ghibli (they had cat buses and the bus stop was totoro shaped).

Great wallpaper. I love it. It has a nice background. bright blue sky wouldn't fit here. But you see Totoro more often in the rain, so it is a bit unexpected. Bit I like this simple composition. Goes to my favorites.
