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.
Taking a small pause from posting my older works I give you my latest wallpaper. I've spent the latest five nights working on this.
I'm one of those people who like Raiden and love the story in Metal Gear Solid 2. As a true fanboy I also get irritated when someone tells me that they don't like the story because it's too complex for it's own good (I hear that A LOT). To show my appreciation of the games storyline I went on a quote-frenzie XD
(interesting reading on the MGS2-story can be found here, here and here).
Anyway...about the wall. I started out with this scan and looked for a stock-photo of a mushroom cloud. I couldn't find one though so I chose another pic which worked just as well. The scan was a real pain to extract, Yoji Shinkawa art is NOT extraction friendly! After thinking a while I added the Raiden scan and changed the theme to a sort of half grunge half tech wall. For the tech I thought that I shouldn't use something random so I recreated some from the games intro and tried to make the wall in the style of the game. An example:
The MGS series my favorite games of all time. Thank you for making this amazing MGS wallpaper. Its perfect. It screams MGS. I love the arsenal gear like flooring you used. It recreates the feeling of the MGS games pefectly, It makes me remember why they were such great games. Thank you again for making such a masterpiece of a wallpaper. Everything blends together pefectly.Keep up the great work.

Raiden and Solid Snake look pretty cool together. You must have had one hell of a time extracting and cleaning those scans. Looks good, color melds nicely... althought the sepia-ish tone around the 2 characters is not my favorite, it still works!
The like the visual effects in the stripe...however, since the scan itself uses amore of a watercouler-like brushed edges, simple extraction is not enough...should have blended the edges a little better...because the edges themselves fade, and the extraction cuts them off too sharply]
Arkadasım ellerine saglik..aslinda burda hic bri sey yapmamis olsanda bu resimdeki oyun kendi basina zaten bir kult.Bu oyunla ilgili ibareyi nereye koyasanız koyun her turlu objenin ustunde ilgi ceker..bu arada tabiiki sanada tesekkurler paylastigin icin.MGS hayranı biri olarak solemeden gecemedim..thx for share

These are the stock photos I used:

I'm glad with how it came out. Hope you like it too.
(Oh, and a small thanks to nixan for pointing out that green does not go with purple XD )

Maybe because MGS1 had Grey Fox. And MGS3 had Ocelot (younger, cooler).
HAHAH!
I've always liked Yoji's art, and you extracted it well. It looks kinda funny with the flooring on the background, but whatever, it looks pretty good!
Sieg Zeon!
