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!
I really wanted to try out grunge and fantasy since I don't think I've done either. The reason it's entitled "Elemental Infection" is because you'll see some representations for different elements like wood, water, air, ice and such, and they seem to be getting infected by some sort of virus, which is represented through the grunge work. The girl is also getting infected. I'm sorry if I the wallpaper doesn't fit the girl at all. I haven't watched Shingetsutan Tsukihime yet, and I just wanted a very high quality scan.
Please excuse my grunge work for now, as this is my first try at it. I really like how I made the texts though. smiley This just includes lots of brush work using PS default brushes and some brushes from DeviantArt, different blending modes, and a couple of stock photos from www.sxc.hu.
45 layers. Took about 8 hours in 7 days (in the middle of homework! smiley).

This has got to be one of the best wall i have seen yet. Amazing effects, very impress by it. When i saw it on the home page i knew that i had to write a comment about it. Keep up on the good work.
Gbaromster is rigth, this wall IS an instant eye catcher. The scan blends so well with the backround. I love it! Can't stop starring at it! Excelent job! ^_^
What a techi-riffic wallpaper! Everything looks cool! I don't think gray goes with her, though... It's just that she's too colorful to be in a gray background. The contrast doesn't work well. But, without her, the background could do just fine! It's awesome!
Oh wow the dark grunge look makes the setting of the wall interesting and impressive! I like the blends too! Perfect scan and perfect extraction! Love how it fits in the center of all the stuff blending to it! very nice! very good color scheme! Favorites!
Amazing grunge wall. I love how you used the two swishes of air to make a heart-shape ring around the character. It truely makes a difference in the wall by adding extra focus to the center.
