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!

Okayyy... first off, I don't know if this is the right section... but it should be.
I vectored the character from that overused scan but decided afterwards, why not try one of those colourful walls I've always wanted to do?! And so, I did. I tried using gradients and patterns and dotted lines and arrows and whatnot, but I decided in the end to stay with solid colours. To be honest, I'm quite satisfied with how this turned out... it's much more different than anything I've ever made in the past. It's so ridiculous when I think about it... such a simple wall took hours and hours of just putting colours together... but still, it was a fun wall.
Oh, and like Kalico said, I'm part of Pixelated Grafitti now... XD So if you're looking for different resolutions for my walls, you know where to go~

P.S: Yes, those are clouds. ~_~ ...and for some reason, the wall seems a bit blurry. ._."
{EDIT}
I knew the birds were kidna screwy before, but I was too lazy to fix them... I directly vecotred them off the original scan. They're fixed now... kinda (I accidentally flattened the layers) and resemble birds... to a certain extent. Yeah... -trails off-
I like the simple vector style and the skyline and the different way you portrayed the clouds are pretty cool as well. I think the reason the wall might look blurry is because of the bright colors, feel like everythings vibrating when i looked at the full-view version. Anyway it's a nice wall, and it's always nice to do something you've never done before~
Your birds took funky. But the rest of it is sexy goodness. Good job with the colours, and I like the simplicity but not simplicity of it. My only real complaint is the birds. They scare me. o__o
...
you have less patience than I do. =.=
Anyway, I've got to say you've got the dimension thing cleared up with the pink =/ In the end, I dunno if adding patterns or gradients would make it any better...=.=a
Nicceee...this is a really sexy wall. Like the colours a lot, makes it look really funky. Wish you added a little depth or some shadow to the girl though...it would make it less, umm I dunno how to say it. But whatever this is really good!

WOW! I really love the vector work here! Excellent coloring and perfect creativeness! I really like the position of the character and how everything is just abstract and not detailed very nice concept here! I love it! Desktop friendly and worht being my favorites!
Vectors with solid colours itself interest me very much. The perspective looks great and the wall is full of creativiness. Nice birds by the way. Looks like eagles to me ^_^
It's the horny guy -you- T.T Kidding kidding =P Hehehe, nice vectoring ;D I like how you've stuck with using solid colours rather than using gradients or what not ^^ Like the colour choices, very...interesting colour scheme *.* Nevertheless good job ^^
I'm not entirily down with that bird to the far left- it looks a tad awkward to me. But the bright, and far out colours totally make up for it. Magnifico;)
This wall has a really cool idea and all...but why did you use that hideous blinding pink? why? it just hurts the eyes! ack! otherwise it would have been so nice.
Well, that's one cool vectoring job and one really nice wallpaper :)
i like it, looks so simple, but *really*good - and that's the point in the end, ne?
*thumbs up*
