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!
Adobe Suite: $700. Junk food eaten while designing: $57. Hours spent working on a design when you could have been working: $350 dollars. The 10 minutes for someone to tell you you suck: Priceless
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.
Dear Diary!^.^
*Preparation : rearranged my collection ... to the Clamp category ...
Deleted so many double scans ... Phew ... So relieved ... Huh ? Found a scan of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, why didn't I notice to such a great scan ?
IT's so beautiful ... but the only problem is its quanlity is a bit low ... Right!I'll RECG or vector it for sure ... but when ? Not certainly ... must wait until I have the inspiration ...
*2 two days later ... feel so fresh today ... what should I do today ...? Huhm ... Oh yeah ... vector my favorite scan of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle (four of main character are so cool in this scan ...>.<)!Let's take my hand up!
*First day of job : Start with vectoring Sakura ... Huhmm!Her hair is so hard to deal with ... common on, bring it on!Let's see what can I do with her ... slowly ... finished the outline of Sakura ... then corloring ...Hey!Seem not bad, but the hair seems a bit not very good ... okay!Try again!Still not satisfied ...But that's my best!Hope it looks not too bad !
THe rest of Sakura is easy to finish ... Ah!Done with Sakura ... Happy ^.^ ...Oh!It took me 3 hours!
*Second day : It's Syaoran today!His cloth and outline are not much clearly ... slow down ... carefully ...!So tired ...! finished the out line!SO head, especially the locks on his cloth, so detailed!Okay, look fine now!Do colouring now!Wow, red, dark red, dark gray and black look so cool together!Ehee...regain inspiration!Keep going!Uhm the eyes are still not good!Again ...Okay Syaoran is done!Look sooo cool...!
*Third day and fourth day : uh Woaaa ... so tired with Fye and Kurogane!details ... so many!All are messed up ... ahh ... mistook again!Phew...calm down !Take a rest and try again later !
... Ah Let's continue!^.^ Done with the outline!Things are getting easier!After corloring!Ehee...so happy, half way has been done!only the background left ... Uh!it's 11:30pm already!Let's go sleeping!
*Fifth and sixth day : My god!The file is so huge : 65mb!Took many time to open it!Um ... background...what should I do with it, keep reCG it or make a new ...? Fine!Let's begin with the stone Wing!should I use some crack brushes ...? Let's try!Not good!Not suitable at all!Delete right away!Then must RECG even the cracks ...woah...such a boring job...Be patient!Ah ha!Done with the wings ...
Final day : Eh ... the cliff or rock or whatever is so hard to do ... Alright!Change it into broken wall!Seem not bad !
The background!What should I do ... okay since I'll name it Eternity so background will contain countless clocks ...
Look suitable, isn't it ?
Woa ... Everything is done after adding some typical feather of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle ... feel so happy!
Okay!That's diary of making this job!Just reading it, you guys can know how hard I did!Ehe, a bit proud but in fact my vector skill seem to grown fast, so I think this one better than the last one !
Hope you guys like it and thank for all comment and fav*
By the way, you can watch the original work of mine here http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/245768/ (because you know, I had rearranged and turned it into a wall - not a easy work at all !)
Wah *O*/ this wall looks so beautiful *----*/ I really like it! especially the vector!! the background looks really good too ;D
great job *O*//
+ fav ;D
Magnificant!. An outstanding vector. your skills are top notch. Need some improvements? well you can decide on that but there is no need. The background looks really nice. It blends in well with your wall

It is lovely! You did a great job coloring the low quality scan that this wall is based off of. I have to tip my hat to you. I love Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle but then again, I love almost anything by Clamp. Fay is my favorite. I think he is one of the most beautiful Anime guys I've seen in a long time. I think you captured this scan perfectly into a wallpaper. Great job and I look forward to more Clamp work by you!
Tsubasa is so ownage, I like this wallpaper alot :O the background on it is so l33t, keep up the good work, this might just make my desktop very soon, as soon as i cycle it again >_>
WHOA!! When I saw this wall I knew I had to add it to my favorites! EXCELLENT job on vectoring the cahracters! It's amazing how you vectored everyone! I love the look on the characters especially how Sakura turned out! I love the BG work too! Is there suppose to be a line cutting down the BG? ne wayz Love the glowing effects on the feathers, texturing of the BG is good and overall I love the wall! Instant favorite!

Great vector! background is interesting though I did notice a sort of cease near the middle. >_> Anyways, good job! looking forward to more of your vectors. ^^
Ok let's see !!
The vectoring work took you so long, but it was worth its while!It is an excellent job I think :)
Well, actually everything is nicely done in my opinion, except the exture used as background!I liked the clocks, but not the effects on it and the colors !! I would imagine the wallpaper with darker background and brighter clocks !!
Anyway, it is still a very good job !!
