This wallpaper gives us a perfect example of how a simple manga scan can be turned into a beautiful vector. Not only did danalm trace the lineart, but he also added amazing details and a simple, yet wonderful background. Furthermore, the wallpaper shows us how the monochromatic style can make your work look really interesting.
Lol Really? Wow You always seem to Surprise me tide-kun. Well hey im going to get some food and think about the nickname i'll make for you *Huggles* Take care Buddy Bai Bai =]
I have only recently discovered Range Murata, but I quickly fell in love with his work. Blue was created from a scan of his (the girl) which I cleaned up and added a few more shadows/highlights to so she would blend a little better. The background proved a little difficult to create the illusion of depth and perspective, but I think it came out nicely.
Edit: Jeez, I can't believe I didn't notice what was wrong with the hair. I tried to fix it in this new version, though it was giving me some trouble. :/
Wow first comment...geez. what I find most appealing about this wall is that is it so clear and crisp. It's like high definition. it's really well done. time well spent. and I going to add this to my favorites.
Oh, wow. I gotta say, it's so simple, but I can't imagine what you went through getting that background to flow so nicely with the image. It's amazing the perspective you were able to create. A job VERY well done. Nice wallpaper.
Great work with pespective! The scan is nice and clean...and the background goes really well with it. There are nice effects in the background too... The girl´s hair don´t go with the background well, you should have edited them a little... they are so sharp. I love those colours :)
A realistic and pretty wallpaper,
awesome work ^_~

Yeah. another Range Murata Fan *-*
Very good work, I like the softness of the colours and the whole background fits in well.
Also the mood of this scene has something special. Please do more of such good Wallpapers!
I like how the elements of the wall go together, the colors are well matched and add to the overall feel. As for the perspective you really did a great job there, as all the shadows and the changing color create a great illusion. The highlight of the wallpaper for me is the shadow the girl casts on the wall behind her - a nice touch and it also adds to the depth of the whole scene.
Keep up the good work.

Wow! That is what I call perfect integration of the foreground into the background. The illusion of depth is perfectly done. Same goes to the cleaning and editing of the scan. I like the shadows on the wall - they make it look as if someone took a photo or something.
Overall: simply great :D (by the way: I like this babe ^^;)
Therefore: fav ^^;
Light and texturing is perfect, as said above the wall really gives the impression that it's 3d. However there are some minor things to improve: the girl looks a bit blurry compared to the crystalclear wall behind her. Also you replaced all the black of the character outline with blue, while in the wall the colour black still exists. I think it'd be better to water down on the character's bleu light effect. That just an opinion though, good job.
Wow! congratulatinos! excellent work!
I love her expression in her eyes and you knew how to supplement it with the wall in the background...I refer to the texture, also you knew to put all the colors carefully.....great job! *fav*

It really looks like she's leaning on that wall - and blending like that is really difficult to achieve. And it works really well as an actual wall :).
