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!
LL: (if you are still on) I need to have you making a group annoucement about the card game. Currently very few people are on it. I make the design,but we need set the rules soon as possible.
There aren't enough Touya walls on here, so ta-da! This is my first manga vector, and I must say I don't think I ever want to do another one again (way too complicated)! In the end I'm not as happy with this vector as I have been with others, but as long as no one tries to cut it out and use it on their own wall I think I'll survive.
The first time I saw this Touya pic I knew I had to use it in a wall somehow. Making the vector tired me out so much though that for the background I mostly just used another Tsuba scan, although I did have to smudge/blur all of it and re-CG parts of it. The original Touya scan was during the day, so I'm worried that I didn't transition his colors to night-like enough. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to share!
The Touya scan was from Random I'm not sure where I got the background scan from but I know there is a version of it here in the Tsuba section somewhere...
It sounds like your being to hard on yourself >_< I think the vector is pretty well done and although the sharpness of it clashes with the softness of the bg, I cant find much wrong with it. Great night feel for a darker desktop. Well Done
All in all, its a fine wall. The vector was done well. I think the hardest part was vectoring the sword considering there were little lines and spects of detail everywhere.
A good choice for the bg but more could be done
*Two Thumbs up*
I think the vector looks really good, especially the sword. Your attention to detail really paid of. I do think the background could stand to look a little more natural but it's not bad, not bad at all. Nice job.
I love the vector...but the thing is the backround, its a little pixelated...the vector is so clean and clear that it sort of clashes with the backround, but its still a great wallpaper and I love that image of Touya.

Good choice of background to match the character because he fits well in it. His pose of sitting on a stone does not look that appealing because he seems like not sitting on anything, but rather he looks like falling down from somewhere due to the motion of his cape. If he was sitting and the wind is blowing, his cape seems alright but not alright because of the positions of his hands. Overall you spend a lot of effort and time on it so it is more than I would do LOL. I am too lazy to do this kinds of things.
The vector work is great. I love how you got the creases in the trousers and stuff but I wish you didn't use white...maybe really really light shade of blue would have been better. But it looks good as it is so no biggie.
Like the background too and it goes well with the scan.
Nice work.

Well , the vector is nice , even though there are some outlines are not always smooth ...
But i think the bg is too blurry/smooth and the stone he is sitting on too realistic compared to the sharp anime-like vector look
Also i think the blue ish jewel thing could looks better if you blurried the light and shadowing on and play on opacity ...
But i know it's really hard to vector a manga scan so high five for you XD
Lovely wall over all
What can i say...
Well, the wall itself is good ^^
But i think that Touya is separated from everything else in the wall...
Much artifitial... ANYWAY, is so rare a wall of Touya...
Fav for this ^^b
Here we go ^^/

Wow, this wall is really nice, Toya is so cute...but in my opinion, i think that the background you chose was so dark, it was really hard to see the face and the angle point of view in this art work...I think you cuold make it a little bit brighter and sharper, just in case, because maybe when you have done that, your wall will look more beautiful than ever before...isn't it right! I Hope you could improve your skill, best wishes for you!

I’ll moisten your dry heart
My useless pride will
cry bitterly, that’s right, even if I hurt you
Because I’ll shout loudly on the night of atonement
Please reach out your hand. . ."
