Okay, this time I'll start from the end. I didn't know how to name this baby, really, but I came up with this (there is a little spoiler in the title ;)) The profles of Kaede and Asa are vectorized from the opening sequence (note to self: vectorizing blurry caps from japanese R2 DVDs = frustrating). The silhouette of Rin is also from the opening.

The first concept was slightly different - it was only the girls' vectors and a background with some effects. But it felt empty. So I've added big shadows behind the vectors. Next in line, I came up with the silhouette. Still empty-ish. After nearly an hour of experimenting what to do, I've reworked the shadows into flame-like auras and added bleeding eyes for fun. But it made an interesting effect. Though, the thick contours didn't blend with the atmosphere, making the wall kinda 'Azumanga-ish'. So, to make them not visible, I've cleared the whole background and made it black instead. Well, it made the canvas look even more empty than before. Adding text and other things didn't work. So I've expanded the flames a little, and made the two-colour scanlines 'cracked' in the middle to split the image into two halves. The outcome was good, so I stopped mending that moment, not to break anything again. So there you have it. Not the finest piece of art, but it makes a cool, contrasting wallpaper.

Hope you'll like it. Oh, and one more time...
