As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!
Bored out of my mind, I found myself searching through the extensive MT gallery this morning in search of an "entertaining" scan, until i got to the Final Fantasy section. At which point I couldn't help but noticing, and inevitably LOLing myself to tears, the undeniable similarity bewteen the scan and the poster
although not entirely alike, the posture of both characters is amusingly similar. I didn't quite want it to be a parody though, and hence I really didn't go for the overall poster look but it still reminds me of the movie. Yet Im tired of the usual sentimental and serious FF walls, so I thought I'd bring the nifty little fact up, and maybe it'll bring a smile to your face like it did to mine.
Used some textures and stocks from thespook, DA!, Mayang and stockxchange.
Im a texture whore, so I personally liked the over texture version much more, but for thos of you who don't (if you of course bothered to read up to here, like you should):
When I saw the thumb for this wall, I just knew it was by you.
Not feeling the whole texture thing going on here. Though I do like it over the arms. But everywhere else just isn't doing it for me.
But the textureless version is sweet. Nice and clean. Good job.
LOLOL
That is quite funny. You are right. The posture of the two charaters are similar. You even went as far as to add a grainy texture to the overall wall. A funny (yet disturbing) parody wallpaper.
Brilliant. I have to say I like the untextured version more because it brings out both of them more against the sky. The coloring is gorgeous, and the words at the bottom accent it fine.
LoL, yeah, I noticed it was you by just looking the Thumbnail.
It's a bit similar feel to the deathnote one.
I think the clean version would be a bit nicer if the streak on the text faded out sooner.
Nice job!
To tell the truth...despite geing a fan of grunge, I liked the textureless version much better because it gives a nice clean look to the wall. And the darker spots of the texture are a but distracting like the part on Cloud's arm. And the lighting blur for the text is distracting to me as well. The wall is ironic that the scan looks like the cover of Brokeback Mountain but the wall is good.

Lmfao...Brokeback...concerning the textures (I really shouldn't be saying anything, considering I'm a texture whore too XDDDDD I know how it feels *pats*), this wall doesn't NEED textures, yet it looks nice having it there (mainly because I like textures). I think it's the lighting in walls that can replace the textures =.=a Anyway, nice wall =D btw, you don't HAVE to cut off their hair, did you? O_O

How iinteresting. You really have a point the to stark, serious, grungy look of AC wallpapers, but that was the feel of alot of the game/movie.
However, I would like to see more.
Anyways, about yours: I'm glad you love to impliment textures, because I like to digest them. The harsh shadows really create a mood, however, clouds look is quite full of thought.
Great work!
